Holy shit dude calm down. You quoted me talking about how they might add an NFL team to England and I was showing there was more interest than the Superbowl lol. No one's coming here to declare dominance. I even opted to END THE DISCUSSION in this thread by asking people the PM me and you eurotrash wanted to continue it. Don't blame someone else for your mistakes.What does that have to do with the Superbowl and who watches it in the UK? Why are you arguing with a UK resident about the status of NFL here?
The only people that watch the Superbowl are students and people that don't have work the next day.
You do know that the capacity of Wembley is 90k and according to your own link, the NFL games have got around 82-83k? Sell out? How about you learn to read first?
That article also says that the games aren't even broadcast in all parts of the USA, which probably implies they're irrelevant and meaningless to the regular season.
According to these two threads2013 UK TV Ratings - NFL UK ForumsWWE UK viewing figures - Wrestling Forum : WWE, TNA, Debate League, Wrestling Videos, Women of Wrestling ForumsWWE pulls in bigger audiences than the NFL.
I'm not going to debate this further with someone of no knowledge of the situation. NFL will never ever be front page news in this Country and it will never displace football from the sports pages.
I asked this earlier, but I really don't know why Americans feel so threatened by the WC that they have to come here and try and declare the dominance.
Nobody fucking said that. We don't give a flying fuck if you like Football or not. We don't need your approval of our sport. The main argument has been if you would have payed attention that every 4 years americans get Soccer shoved down their throats with bullshit articles about how it's taking off and shit. You apparently need OUR approval of Soccer and we simply don't give a fuck except for a month every 4 years.I'm not going to debate this further with someone of no knowledge of the situation.

I hate the idea of a NFL team in the UK. The travel schedule would be a nightmare. As much as I would love an EPL team in the U.S this also would be a logistic clusterfuck. I know FIFA would love to tap into that Murican money but I just don't see that happening when the talent her is subpar or we get celebrity players doing a victory lap.Ossoi doesn't represent all of us from the UK by the way.
I find NFL pretty awesome and their Wembley games always sell out within hours of going on sale. There is certainly a growing popularity of American football in the UK hence why a London franchise is being heavily considered.
YOU KNOW YOU LOVE FOOTBALL AMERICAN FOOTBALL.This is what happens when they have breaks in the world cup games!
It's so hard to love American Football when you support the Dolphins 8(YOU KNOW YOU LOVE FOOTBALL AMERICAN FOOTBALL.
Golf is great when you go to your in laws house, eat 2000 calories and want to take a nap by watching nature and listening to relaxing announcers.I don't understand hockey at all but love watching it. I only know what icing is from playing hockey on my Sega way back.
Rather than arguing over which football is better, we should all agree that watching golf is the most boring thing ever and you'd only ever have it on to try to impress your lawyer father in law
Baby you know I know that burn.It's so hard to love American Football when you support the Dolphins 8(
Wait, are you a Dolphins fan or Cowboys fan?In December my life loses all meaning.
How do you explain South America, the rest of Europe and the other half of Africa playing to insane levels and India not playing as much?This has nothing to do with a judgement of the sport and everything to do with equipment costs and the British bringing soccer with them everywhere they went in the colonial days.
That is part of Football's appeal, we used a plastic bottle filled with dirt and our schoolbags, but you can't tell me that everyonewatchingAmerican Football has the full body armor and padded buttock cushions in their closet?That has nothing to do with the lack of popularity of Football outside the U.S. It has everything to do with economics. Any broke ass mulignan can kick a ball around and play soccer to some degree. You need a fuck ton of money to pick up Football.
Where are they getting the players from, sounds like they will be shipping Americans over for a gimmick? I come from a Rugby town and I just don't see that type of person going for a slow paced, less tough game.Don't look now but they might be adding an NFL team to England soon.
Football with friends doesn't require an entire set of pads and helmet. If you're a child playing with your other children aged friends you're just throwing the ball around or playing 2h-touch.Where are they getting the players from, sounds like they will be shipping Americans over for a gimmick?

You really should check out Rio Tinto. It has really good atmosphere, we have super loyal fans, south end is for the super fans who will sing the entire match, shit like that. Architecture is great to boot. Where is it you live by chance? General vicinity wise. I'm on 90th South and 7th West, so like a hop skip and jump away as well. Love driving by the stadium. My neighbor is actually Abdoulie Mansally (bench player for RSL)This has me interested in MLS. I've lived a few blocks from Rio Tinto stadium for a couple years now and never bothered checking out the games.
By modern technology and manpower.Question from a 3 year fan: how do they generate the heat maps and know how much each player has traveled down to the nearest 0.01 km?
It's got nothing to do with it being appealing. You can play soccer anywhere with just about everything. That is why it's easy for it to be played in poor countries and why all the top athletes play it.How do you explain South America, the rest of Europe and the other half of Africa playing to insane levels and India not playing as much?
