NFL football by far is the most popular sport in America - followed by college football - then ......... baseball is in serious decline with young people but it's still pretty big with older people - college hoops for February and March is huge - bigger than the NBA - NASCAR is catching up with basketball and is huge of course in the South - hockey is strictly a niche sport in the US -
open wheel racing is not very popular in the US, NASCAR has taken over


as far as playing - black kids have virtually stopped playing baseball, they play basketball and football - baseball if you include softball and slowpitch is still right up there in popularity for all ages - soccer is the most popular for kids playing cuz it's so cheap and there's no violence and not as much pressure for a kid as in sports like baseball - golf is huge with adults now and growing with kids - most cities now have tons of good public golf course - still need to be upper middle class to have your kids playing alot of golf -
basketball is big with kids whether it's just schoolyard or more organized -
