Give it up, caleb! I can't believe you spent time pulling out this information which is meaningless, really. From what I can gather you are saying that a) the NBA finals were so boring that nobody watched them; and b) nobody gives two sh!ts about the World Cup in the US. We ALREADY knew that - even before you told us way back in the first couple of pages of this thread (or was it the thread before?)
