Has football fever taken hold in the US?

I cannot rewrite this as a NobsFacts article because the original text contains no verifiable facts to report. There are no named individuals, no specific actions, no dates, locations, vote counts, quotes, numbers, or official statements—only a vague framing question about subjective "perceptions."

To proceed, I would need:

- Which BBC Sport reporters are being referenced (named individuals)

- Specific statements or observations they made (direct quotes)

- Measurable data on football viewership or engagement in the US (numbers with sources)

- Dates and locations of any events or announcements

Please provide a source article with factual content, and I will rewrite it according to NobsFacts standards.
