i often think about weird that it is. people don't really stop to think about how popular it is in the US because all we see are baseball, football and basketball superstar/celebrities and all the hype and show around it and of course, soccer is not televised here as other sports are.
but we all played (well... i am sure most of us did. i did in elementary school and junior high. where I live in washington, there are tons of leagues and adult leagues, all schools have teams and so on...yet ask someone to name one player in professional *soccer* and they might know who david beckham is... but only because he married a spice girl.
