Worlds number one sport?

[edit]

Somehow the worlds number one sport is not represented on this list and no mention of Pele and a dozen others??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.51.152.232 (talk) 04:33, 12 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]


A case could be made for Pelé’s influence in North America. But like it or not, the award is for influence in North American sports. Soccer, as we call it here, was not a significant sport in North America until berry later in the 20th century. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:240:8EE0:B8E6:EA7F:6B9E:2C3D (talk) 04:51, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
