I don't think I would have guess that football -- real, American football -- is the No. 1 sport in the USA. Pretty much what everybody already knew was confirmed in a recent Harris Poll.
↵In results recently released as part of the 2010 NFL Kickoff Information Guide sent to media members, a Harris Poll concluded that pro football continues to be top dog on the American sports scene.
↵The rankings are as follows:
↵- ↵
- Pro Football -- 35 percent ↵
- Baseball -- 16 percent ↵
- College Football -- 12 percent ↵
- Auto Racing -- 9 percent ↵
- Men's Pro Basketball -- 5 percent ↵
I am a little surprised at how few people list the NBA as their favorite. Sorry about that, Knicks and Nets fans.
