    Football has been (one of) our national sport(s) for a century.

    Soccer, not so much. Of course there’s a surge in interest when we’re hosting a big soccer event, or when our national team is doing unusually well. But it’s still soccer, and it’s hard for that to compete against sports that aren’t notoriously full of cheats and insulting to fix that problem.
