Would much rather watch Olympic hockey, basketball, etc than soccer to begin with.

FIFA is so corrupt in how they administer things (so are the Olympics, but that is another rant)

Big deal worldwide but the WC Finals will have a lower TV rating in the US than a typical Thursday, Monday, or Sunday Night NFL football game.
