I've always considered myself a sports fan. Naturally I'm a Kentucky football fan and a Kentucky basketball fan. Pro sports don't sit to well with me simply because I'm jealous of the money they make, most games are boring until tournament time comes around and I'm sick of the games the players play to promote themselves like LeBron, Bosh and Wade have been doing.

After reading that 88% of the people in Spain watched them beat Germany in the world cup game I'm in shock.

The most Americans who have ever watched a super bowl game was in 1982 when a 49.1 rating was the highest ever recorded when people watched the Cincinnati San Francisco game and that was boosted because of a major blizzard in the northeastern United States on game day.

This years final 4 game drew a 6.0% rating. The most to ever watch a NCAA tournament final game was 50,000,000 in 1997 when Kentucky played Arizona.

The best the BCS title game has ever done was 21.6 rating in 2006.

Dare I ask what sort of rating LeBron James will get when he announces his choice on ESPN tonight. What ever the rating 88% is out of the question LeBron. American fans just don't care that much. Oh and LeBron my figures might not be accurate they were just compiled from a brief search of the internet. So there is still hope you can get a good rating. Win a championship and you might get a 6.0 rating. That compares you with Butler who frankly had better game than you and Cleveland did in the tournament.
