As an American, I've noticed that football has always enjoyed a greater popularity compared to soccer. The key reasons include its deep roots in American culture, its association with prestigious colleges and the high-energy, strategic nature of the sport. Additionally, the NFL's marketing strategies and the Super Bowl's cultural significance have solidified football's dominance. In contrast, soccer, while internationally popular, has struggled to gain the same foothold within the US. Ultimately, it boils down to cultural preference and historical influence.
