ESPN bets on Americans' growing interest in soccer
With the country's growing Hispanic population -- and the broader appeal of soccer among all demographic groups -- has made the sport a top priority for ESPN, according to this report. And the cable sports net, which holds the rights to the men's and women's World Cups through 2014, will demonstrate its interest by covering 31 matches of soccer's European Championship this year.

I have another bet - much like the way I bet in Women's tennis events - Don't ever bet on an American giving a rip about live human foosball! La Futball or Soccer. Why not leave your money on the street? Build another ESPN themed restaurant... Anything but bet on an American watching Soccer for 2 hours. I DARE anyone to disagree with that.
