Should there be more coverage of Olympics sports besides the Olympics?

Question

There are world championships and other major competitions in most of these events every year, like swimming, diving, gymnastics, track and field. Do you think they should get more coverage than they do, not just every four years for the Olympics or Olympics try-outs?

Answer 1

Yes.  It would be a lot better than all the crappy reality shows we have now.

Answer 2

In many other countries that is the case.  The United States definitely doesn't fit the mold in that case.  They occasionally mention swimming, or gymnastics, but they never really come to the forefront.  Most Americans would rather watch baseball, football, basketball, and the like.  I agree, I think it would probably help our team and their abilities in the games if more attention was paid outside of just the olympics, but that's something for the US Olympic Committee to figure out.
