Easy: Baseball. Used to be shown on Channel 5, but now doesn't get a look in. Which is puzzling, given it similarities to cricket. Plus, the last week only pissed me off further, as there was the Wembley American football match highlights AND the game on c4 at the same time. Sooooo aggrivating. Personally, and I say this without my biased hat on; but I think, of all the US sports, Baseball is the one that COULD become most popular in the UK as it is a smart sport that is unpredictable, unlike boring US football.

Baseball was tried in England in 1920's but didn't take off with th public .I believe this is where Derby's former ground got it's name "The Baseball Ground "

^^^Well many, many games had crowds of over 10,000. BUT, this isn't the 1920's, Baseball could still be popular in Britain. If onyl they had gone through with their original plans and had an exhibition game at Lords a decade or so ago.

I'd love to see BTCC shown on ITV1 instead of ITV4 which would attract a much wider audience. It's also disappointing how little coverage the Le Mans 24hr race gets tbh.
You obviously can't get "Motors tv" ch. 413 on Sky then
MotoGP gets good coverage as well from the BBC and Eurosport as well.
