1. The games have 60 min of actually game time but inexplicably last 4 hours or more (football/baseball)
2. Besides the elite few that play the games in college and pros (less than 0.01% of US population plays either games) noone can hit or throw a 90 mph fastball or withstand a linebacker hit without wearing body armor.
3. It is extremely expensive to buy gear to play football or baseball let alone find a public field to play without paying a fortune.
4. Who wants to play a sport that is only played in the US but crowns both World Champions in football and baseball?
5. If you ask 1 in every 1000 americans to tell you 10 rules of football from an officiating point of view they won't know. This is why the ref has to explain the call through a microphone to the crowd and many times even with the use of TV replays from 20 angles and slow motion and freezing of the screen they can't get the play right.
6. It costs a fortune to watch a football or baseball game for a family unless you watch minor leagues where the play is actually better.
