Apologies, as you hadn’t specified just Americans and listed a bunch of world famous athletes I assumed you considered her world famous too. My mistake ?Well considering the original question was talking about Americans, yeah, I guess you have a point.

MJ is Michael Jordan. But Kobe and Serena- NO. I’m mostly interested in music and football. A limited interest in skiing. But generally no other sports.

I use my dog as a barometer. When I ask the dog if she knows Alex Morgan, she says fuck off.

That’s not my point, people were suggesting that her announcement is holding up Bale’s. It’s not, the American market for Women’s Club Soccer is nonexistent. Her announcement isn’t going to break regular news here.
I saw some posts that were true, 90% of Americans can’t find London on a map, 10% is 30 million etc.. the fact of the matter is, if I weren’t a Spurs fan I wouldn’t have known she signed, but the Konrad de La Fuente kid hasn’t even played a senior match for Barca and makes headlines.

Poor **** from Sky who has been outside the ground looks knackered
I actually quite like him too, he seemed genuinely excited to be in the story and not like the usual smug Sky lot like Swanson or Dharmesh.
Imagine if the delay is because they’ve been cutting his hair down and giving him a good cut throat wet shave.
Though I personally love a winger with a barnet out of a late 60s British rock band.

If Kobe wasn’t dead I’d probably only be able to tell you that he was a basketballer. No idea who he played for. Some people allow information like this to pass over them. It just doesn’t catch everyone’s interest. I’m the same with golf, snooker, darts, cricket and they get reported on in mainstream media in the UK.

I'm sorry I couldn't resist. This place going into meltdown over this is just too funny!
In the words of our Scouse friends "calm down, calm down!".
