I know a lot of guys who follow English league soccer, none are American. Soccer has virtually no following of Americans because there is almost zero exposure here. There is a reason for that.
So because the Derby and Breeders' Cup get some exposure, horse racing is more popular here than soccer?

And what are you talking about "not American"? They live here, right? They watch TV here, right? Do you think sponsors and networks care whether or not they were born in America?
