Uh, fortunatly the world is not living in a cave as people in America may believe..the whole world has had access to the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB etc on TV for decades now but they dont fukk with any of that apart from maybe the NBA..

American Football is a truly horrible and quite stupid sport..it has no flow or rhythm to it and all you see is numerous guys standing around doing nothing. The actual amount of play time is about 10% of the total time theyre there..then you have Rugby, which actually flows and the guys are covered in body armor. Rugby is popular around the world, NFL is not.
It doesn't need to be popular around the world it's an American sport being funded for and by Americans.

Definitely takes ability and finesse. Just really not as into many ball sports. I'd rather watch combat sports.

If you got a bunch of regular sized people in the sport, its probably not top tier, People either size up (NBA, NFL) or size down (Gymnastics, Jockies) for the a competitive advantage once the competition gets to a certain level. A 5'10" 180lb cac is never going to be the peak build for a sport. Unless its separated by weight classes

I'm sure going 3 rounds with say Jon Jones would be a great time.
Let's be clear, there is zero chance of that happening over words, but if a trained fighter decides he wants to assault me for comparative criticism they basically deading themselves. How insecure must a man be to have an emotional meltdown over comparative criticism between sports......valid criticisms........

Used to feel that way until I started getting into it. Soccer takes way more skill to play than you think and to my surprise much more physical.

like buddy said, regular cats aren't getting the money these cats get for a reason in the top leagues.

Not saying it doesn't take skill.
Just saying that every sport begins at the Bob Cousy stage, a bunch of janitors or mailmen before being taken over by genetic lottery winners. Once it becomes a big deal.
This remained in the bob cousy stage, because all the genetic lotto winners prefer to go to the NFL or NBA where you can be 8th man in rotation in still be a multimillionaire. Soccer can make bank too, but not random role players

that's why it's a harder sport.

NBA is the apex IMO for athletics as far as the major athletic sports (basketball, soccer, baseball, football, hockey).

Dana just needs to shut his wife beating ass up.
