i disagree
the common guy will not watch unless USA is part of the tourney
its also easier for the network to market if the USA is involved
It'll make an impact
But American sports fans will watch anything they can drink to in mid-Summer

Yeah, no. What "American sports fans" are you referring to? I sure as hell don't give a damn about the World Cup unless the USA is in it. In fact, the only people I know that do are the uber soccer fans that follow European soccer just as hard as they do the NFL or college football.
The World Cup, and Soccer in general, are not made for the US Sports fan who has an attention span of 10 seconds. And with no vested interest in it, I doubt Joe Blow is going to turn on a soccer game because he can "drink to it".
