LOL. Opinions vary. After college football and basketball, I love golf and soccer next. Not to watch, but to play. I played both sports in college. Back before George Washington was president.

I have no interest in watching others because play golf, but those that do have a lot more disposable income than the average fan of other sports. There's a reason Ford and Chevy advertise during NASCAR and Lexus and Jaguar (yes, I know it's a Ford brand now) advertise during golf.

Jaguar is no longer owned by Ford. They are owned by the Indian based car manufacturer, Tata motors, along with Land Rover

i always hated watching golf on tv until i started playing. Now i can sit there and watch it all day on Sunday. Even started doing PGA on fanduel and Draftkings.

Soccer is fun to watch if it is 2 top teams playing

That's pretty much how I feel. I watch the golf majors, plus the Ryder and President's Cups. For soccer, I watch WC matches with the U.S. (not this time), and maybe the final, regardless of team.
