I made this in an attempt to measure the popularity of each league as it relates to this site. Many of you probably don't follow the sport, but I know a large minority if not majority do, given that we have a sizeable international contingent, and it's vastly more popular in the US than it was a couple decades ago.

I'd go with the EPL, MLS, and German Bundesliga as far as the most that I follow, and I also try to keep up with other leagues, but not everything is as readily available over here as it is in those league's home countries. Plus the Champions League, of course, and sometimes the NASL (US's second tier) because there's a team in that here in Atlanta.

So, what's Atlas's Favorite Association Football League?

None. I can't say I follow any sports, tho some awareness of them does seep in from the barrage of media coverage. For example, I'm aware that the Clemson Tigers are currently #1 in college gridiron football. But despite being an alum, that and that Dabo is the head coach are all the factoids of this team that I know. Check, when I hear "Dabo" my first thought is the game played in Quark's Bar on DS9, not a person.

Mostly just the Premier League. I check out the scores for La Liga, MLS, and Bundesliga but don't watch that many games.

Just noticed I fudged up the poll, only allowing people to select 1. Oh well, it only partially defeats the purpose of the poll.

MLS and NWSL, but I'll occasionally watch some Premier League or UEFA Champions League games.

I used to be fond of football, but nowadays I only superficially follow the UEFA Champions League and the Eredivisie.

Very loosely follow Bundesliga (cheer for Dortmund), but it's not that easy in the US.  I do believe next year it'll be easier?  Anyway, I mostly just check the scores everyday on my ESPN app.  Also, needless to say, I follow international soccer very closely during the major tournaments (Euro, World Cup, CONCACAF, etc.).

This year it's easier--they just upped the deal to FOX. They show at least 1 or 2 games weekly on FOX Sports 1 (which I get), and then more on FOX Sports 2 (which I don't get and never have gotten). I believe there are ways to watch it online, too.
