According to a recent survey by The Economist, the sport has now surpassed baseball among Americans' favorite sports, ranking behind only American football and basketball.

    Why do MLS soccer stadiums have capacity of about 20k and MLB stadiums hold 50k or more ?

    Baseball plays 162 games a year.

    Juan Soto got 700 million for his contract.

    It doesn’t really matter to me I just suspect this is a bullshit claim.
