I mean, that's a pretty stupid definition of popular that basically means whatever the US cares about most is globally the most popular. If 100x more people care about something, but their per capita earnings are 1/1000th of the smaller group's, it is still more popular, even though the salaries will be lower and ad time will be cheaper.
I have no clue how many people care about rugby in relation to how many care about American football, fwiw. Just want to point out txdome being stupid in yet another thread.
