Surprised game 1 of Spurs/warriors is that low

All the bandwagon warriors fuks must not have known they had a game that day

I'm surprised that Game 1 of the Finals got lower ratings than the other 4. I woulda figured that less people would tune in for later game after seeing that the series was not very competitive.

one thing is for certain, lolhockey

can't believe the monster ratings for WK 17 SNF, beat out every NBA playoff game except 1, pretty damn good.

NFL Pro Bowl (and NFL draft round 1) more viewers than all of the NBA ECF games LOL! (both on cable so it's fair to compare)

tried to make it a little easier to read

I'm surprised the NFL draft was lower than the baseball allstar game. The NFL Pro Bowl is higher than I thought it would be though

didn't realize those were all the sports in the world

if you weren't too lazy to copy and paste the link I posted into your web browser and read the article, you would have noticed there is FIFA (soccer), Boxing, Tennis, College Baseball and other sporting events on the 2nd page (honorable mentions)...



I'm not, it's the most popular all-star game out of all sports... agreed on the the 2nd part though, never thought the NFL Pro Bowl would crack the top 50, let alone beat out other major sporting playoff events.

This is just viewership within the USA though isn't it?

The Super bowl doesn't get anywhere near the numbers most european soccer finals do

List doesn't include soccer
