Not really. Because the respective leagues themeselves will use their own services. MLB TV is pretty dope for what it is.

And there's already NBA League Pass.

Not sure how it is for MLB or the other leagues butNBA league pass isnt good enough for what I want.

I may be in the minority on that though

How are they the most marketed if nobody watches, rather, why would they be marketed if nobody watches? Yall say "fukk logic" in Alabama?

The NBA markets their individual players more than any other sport. Also, The endorsers of these athletes market them more than any other sport's athletes.

Why are you being obtuse?

If nobody were watching endorsers wouldn't make NBA players the highest paid athletes, why are YOU being obtuse.

There's no place to go but down if they can't penetrate other markets, I tried to tell @Trip @Juven and @#StarkSet this and they wasn't listening :yeshrug:

Honestly I can't speak for the rest of the world, but in a short amount of time the NFL has managed to a get a foothold in Brazil. A lot of people don't even understand the rules, but the sport tugs at folk's primal instincts so they watch it anyways. There are domestic leagues and teams popping up around the country and a lot of people are really into it. NFL games get good to great ratings and folks genuinely seem to enjoy the sport.

The NFL has only been targeting the Latin American market for a few years, and they've seen rapid growth. If they keep trying to grow the sport the way the NBA did globally it could be a big thing. Hell I live near the Texas/Mexico border now, and I've never met a group of people that love football more than Mexicans. The sport failed in Europe, but most of us Latinos love gladiators. And football is the ultimate gladiatorial sport.

I mostly watch RedZone on Sunday or the niners. But as demographics continue to change in this country, I think we will see growth for soccer and continue to see growth in bball. Don't be surprised if one day basketball is the #1 sport in America. Maybe not in our lifetime but I think one day it will be.
:blessed:

real shyt

but basketball imo has the greatest future ahead of itself out of all sports not name soccer,

alot of people are getting into it especially the young ones.

Jordan, Kobe, Curry, Rose, Lebron are some if not the most popular athletes in China and asia, plus the sport continues to grow.

Everywhere...You never there.
On-the-field product is declining. quarterback position is woefully suffering. Cte shyt. Passive protests ticking off the :mjpls: crowd. I do believe the peak has occurred. As others have said, people will watch regardless. It'll still be the number 1 US sport for a while longer.
