Hey everyone, I just came across this:
http://www.badminton.ca/bcnews/2002/pr020623.html

Seems like Badminton on CBC was watched more
than the NBA playoffs and World Cup Soccer!!!

Maybe the NBA playoffs were repeats? If badminton actually could get more ratings than basketball, then we'd see badminton every sunday instead of american football or golf that i never watch anyway.

I still can't understand why golf gets show more often than badminton
