Baseball is the great American sport and every team has fans. Nearly every big city has a team , and as each team plays. 162 games a year, following baseball can take up a lot of time. The playing season begins in spring and finishes in the fall World series, when the two leading teams play each other. The first to win four games wins the Serries. Although called the World Series, Canada is the only other country to take part in it.

Football ,played in the fall and winter , is also very popular. It is not at all like the game called soccer. There isn’t much kicking in American football, which has more to do with running with the ball and knocking people down. Each team only plays 16 games during the season, and these take place on Sundays and Monday evenings . (5)Half the country watches the final game on a Sunday , in January.

When there are no good games on television , Americans watch college sports. Many colleges feel that if they want their former students to give money to their old schools, they need a winning football team. To our surprise , this seems to be true.
