* P.S: The Eagles (US rugby union national team) have succeeded to qualify to all Rugby World cups since 1987, and won on two occasion the Gold medal in the Olympics back in the day, and there's a lot of potential for professional league in up coming years and hosting the World Cup, Beside the 7s versions of the game is being held every year in Las Vegas

One of my favorites to watch, haven't got to play it yet, but I watched it when i went to Ireland for a week. That would be hurling, it is very popular in ireland, it is also an ancient sport. In ireland they have clubs, but no real professional teams, its more town vs town. Its played with a stick, much like lacrosse called a hurley and a ball about the size of a baseball called a sliotar. It is very difficult to explain, but if you google it, their will definitely be more info on it
Yay! Someone else said what I was going to say. Beautiful but not that common in the USA is Rhythmic Gymnastics. It's sooo beautiful and it takes lots of grace and timing, not to mention flexibility.
Handball
Mens field hockey
Trampoline
Rhythmic gymnastics
Figure skating
Table tennis, or ping pong as its often called
