1. Lacrosse is a sport of Native American origin.

2. Soccer is the most popular game in the world — the World Cup Final in 2006 was watched by 2 billion people, the Super Bowl is watched by 100 million. Perhaps the Americans are satiated with their smorgasbord of sports offerings, but the world overwhelmingly votes for a different form of football.
