    I don’t think the US needs a new sport, most of the country is either brain dead from American Football, Basketball, NASCAR, Baseball. Basically anything the USA has invetend for themselves and every other country couldn’t give a shit about.

      Yeah most people in the US don’t give a shit about soccer, so I don’t get why you’d bother rigging it or other manipulation. Other than just because you are Trump and you just rug and grift and do shadey shit for no reason other than to do it.
