This sporting news is having fair coverage in the United Kingdom. In the United States, the media attention is not as much. The media are focused on things such as:

• college basketball
• major league baseball
• professional basketball
• professional hockey
• golf
• tennis
• a hawk attacking a school girl in Fenway Park

This is just briefly what dominates today’s sports headlines. It is difficult even to find soccer news on some sites. And yes, if you mention the ‘Colorado Rapids’ to some sports fans, they would think you are talking about whitewater rafting… and not professional soccer.
