Soccer.  Real Salt Lake paid a $10 million expansion fee a decade ago, it’s $150 now and growing for MLS.  More 5-19 year olds play soccer than any other activity now, including Boy/Girl Scouts.

I had a friend that said that to me 20 years ago.  "All kids are playing soccer, in 10 years it will be the number 1 TV sport."  My response was "If that were the case, we'd all be watching hide and seek on TV"

Basketball has always been the favorite sport of among the youth demographic compared to football, either you or somebody in the neighborhood had a hoop in the backyard or bball court on the block. It's a much simpler game to pick up and understand so that explains that.

By the time high school hits it's no doubt which sport is king in most states.

Eh when the NFL has been on top for like...always in most of our and his lifetime then yea decline is the only way it could go.

And they have overextended and should do away with Thursday games...no one would care and in fact even most half wits agree with this.
