It's crazy how hard the NFL mogs every other american sport
>>1511827309 million out of 350? The numbers don't add up what the fuck.Not even a quarter of your population is interested in sports?
>>151184389NFL is a 32 team league that has 16 games, most of them sharing the same time slots. 144m total views a week is not bad.
>>151182730
>>151184486>country of 320 million>only 32 teamswtf. You should have alot more lover tier leagues, then state leagues and state lower tier leagues. All with relegations. Every shitty little town should have it's own stadium and a atleast semi professional team
>>151188394>You should have alot more lover tier leaguesWe do, it's called high school and college football. picrel is a high school football game>>151188394>Every shitty little town should have it's own stadiumThey do. Every high school has a football stadium, even the small rural towns.
>>151188482Here's a pic of college football. It's a huge deal all over the country with many stadiums regularly getting 80k+ attendance.
>>151188482who the fuck wants to watch kids play ball? Now college ones, throw the players out of school and give them real contracts
>>151188548>who the fuck wants to watch kids play ball?many people do apparently https://youtu.be/VypxiD8GOxY (this is a college game, not an NFL game)
yuros are thinking about usa again
Because its an actual physical sport that requires a ton of effort and physical talent unlike>ngubu who's 7 foot puts ball in hoop>110 lb ngubu who runs a 4.5 40 goes 0-0 over 90 minutes
>>151188746Not random as fuck like luckswing too.
>>151188764Or as niche/equipment intensive as hockey
>>151182730I had no idea the nhl was that popular
I don't care for the nigger felon league
>>151182730I don't believe the NBA numbers for a second, money laundering racket of the highest degree
>>151188394We have Spring football and we have college football. Were never going to have lower tiers like in Europe, especially not with relegation. Owners don't want it and it's way too physical of a sport with injury luck playing a factor into how well a team does.
>>151188394That's called college football
>>151192774I don't like the NBA either
>>151192774Then go back to boreball, cuck. Or maybe you watch hockey, the official sport of autists in America.
>>151188394Including college (which is like minor professional at this point) there are like 1200 football teams Basically every city over 100k in the USA has a professional or college team drawing 10’s of thousands of people a week
>>151182730>NHL is more popular in America than baseball, its national sportWut
>>151194167twice as many games though
>>151194167Baseball is a boomer sport. It's dying, zoomers don't care about it
>>151194167It's a measure of average viewership per-game. An NFL team will play only 17 regular season games. NHL teams play 82 regular season game. Baseball has a 162 game regular season. fewer games = more viewers per-game.>>151188394It doesn't use a club system. The NFL is a closed-league franchise system.>"that's stupid"Sure, but that's how it is.
>>151188394Don’t tell us how we should be doing stuff you fuckwad
>>151194167Its not more popular in the United States. Canadians are fanatic about hockey, thats why
NFL is the only one where you can watch your team for free
>>151182730>MLB>less watched than >NHL
>>151188394No one wants to watch ahitty quarterbacks. Football is a game that doesn't scale well to minor pro levels
>>151199171Imagine watching game 100 of 162 when you've been eliminated from the playoffs 20 games ago and it's being played at 1PM on a Wednesday
>>151188482>Every high school has a football stadiumThere are many high schools in the US with better stadiums than 2nd division European soccer teams.
>>151199404half of our 1st division divegrass teams don't have such a nice stadium tbqh
>>151199121*legally
>>151194167It isn't. Baseball just has so many games that people aren't going to tune in for all of them.
>>151184389Correct
>>151193937College thing bothers me. Can't you have it without college. Good players move into pro leagues, what happens with those not good enough? They just stop playing when they aren't even at their peak? 10s of thousands people watching them means there is interest and a market for them to play
>>151184389Do you really think an account called yahoonfl would excessively overstate the achievements of the NFL? Meds now!
>>151203671Would you put your body and health on the line for chump change?
>>151199404>All that plentiful parkingDo the teachers of the school park there when there isn’t a game on?
There's less games in football so more people watch them. If MLB and NBA only played 17 games a year, only 1 per week, the viewing numbers would go way up
>>151182730>watching constant commercials and breaks in the action>constant flags because nogs can’t stand in a straight lineNice sport you got there, L’Quarius Darius
>>151182730Honestly, considering how many MLB matches there are in a single season that is insanely impressive. Truly America's favorite pastime.
>>151203671>what happens with those not good enough?They move on with their lives, most players have degrees from finishing college and can adjust anyway. Some also just go to CFL (the canadian league)>10s of thousands people watching them means there is interest and a market for them to playLower leagues have been created (USFL, XFL, UFL) but they always go bankrupt because no one cares about them, people would rather watch NFL and college.
>>151182730Kek my Dukies average 2 million views a game and get up to 15 million views in pre final four matchups. Duke basketball shits on most pro teams
>>151184389That’s tv viewership unc
>>151188525Don't be disingenuous and not include the caveat that only white trash red neck regions give a shit about college football. Most people who live in a real state don't give a fuck about college especially if they have no affiliation with those schools
>>151216621They have no competition in the summer except MLS. Most people turn on the game and have it on playing in the background, not really paying attention until they hear the crack of the bat hitting the ball
>>151221147The white trash red neck regions of Michigan and Ohio?
DUDE MOG LMAO
>>151221147cfb is fucking huge. The stadium turnout blows worldwide soccer out the ass. The HS football games in libshit cites are the same as professional soccer in the same area.
>>151182730>premier league bar didn't fit
>>151188792Hockey does remove the socioeconomic factor
>>151188394College football is the lower tier league, that's how it is and trying to start other spring leagues like the USFL is stupid because it'll never be as popular as college.
>>151221571He's kinda right tho, schools like Cal and USC don't get full capacity crowds.
>>151198546>allow me to tell you about your country
>>151221147Lmao shut the fuck up
>>151182730those are national ratings, more people watch local MLB than local NHL or NBA
>>151182730Australia gets 614k per game for our biggest sport with 1/27th the population.614k *27=16.5 millionI know Australia is crazy over sports but didn’t realise we watch it that much more than Americans.
>>151221294Yeah retard definitely white trash. What, you thought it was LA or NYC? Kek
>>151188394Nigga we have colleges in bum fuck nowhere towns with 100k seat football stadiums
>>151221571Why is it that the highest attended college stadiums are all in states you couldn't pay me to live in? The point still stands. College football is for shit states that nobody wants to live in
>>151188394Football is way too violent and dangerous for grown men to be playing unless they can make big money in the NFL. Baseball has a system more familiar to europoor with their minor leagues
>>151231019Nvm fucked up the math we have 1/13th the population and watch 7.8 million on average if converted to americas population.That’s because our 2 biggest sports are split a lot more evenly though, not one sport miles ahead like USA.
>>151221147Power house teams like Ohio State and Michigan are some of the richest universities in the world you dumb fuck
>>151231051>LANot like USC is one of the greatest football teams in NCAA history...
>>151194167There's double the games in basedball and in person attendance is significantly more, also hasn't been the national sport since the invention of TV
>>151231302Florida, Texas and the south are taking over the country
>>151231448I see your reading comprehension skills validate my point
>>151231494And yet nobody goes to their games except rich white people. Nobody gives a fuck about USC football anymore once Pete left. UCLA the other day against Pedo State couldn't even fill half the stadium. LA Galaxy vs LAFC gets 80k in that stadium. Californians don't give a fuck about college football. Neither do New Yorkers or anybody in the Northeast
>>151231448>Ohio State>RichestWho let this retard on the internet
>>151221147>Ohio State>Oregon>Michigan>Michigan state>Syracuse>Notre Dame>Miami>Southern California
>>151188746>charge into each other>take a break every 15 seconds>commercials galoreyup, that's a real sport alright
>>1512351902 of those don't belong with the rest. I'll let you figure it out champ
ITT seething rednecks and white trash mad that the rest of the country doesn't give a fuck about inferior college football
>>151194167ever watched a game of baseball? its boring as fuck.
>losing to jasg
>>151231581This is dumb. Baseball was the #1 sport until like 2000
>>151231668>Florida, Texas and the south are taking over the countryLMAO! Just LMAO!
>>151188394>we don't do that>IN YUUURUP!kek
>>151184389Every other sport is too many games. NFL games are 18 weeks in and out. Games played same day same time. There’s no reason NBA and NHL should be 82 games. It’s because of revenue more than anything. Don’t even get me started on baseball. 162 game season is just nutty for only 12 teams to make the playoffs. NFL is also the best to gamble on and the og of fantasy sports,
>>151242788NFL is definitely not the OG of fantasy. Baseball is. Look up rotisserie leagues
Is there any major professional sports league in North America that ranks below Major League Soccer?
>>151243245Nope. Dead last. I watch EPL champions league and Serie A but honestly would never watch MLS but it does have a cult following. The people into it are super into it.
>>151243245WNBA, CFL, UFL, G league, USL, Formula 1, Mexican baseball league, Canadian Premier League
>>151182730>MLB mogged by NHLNice
>>151243357The Canadian Premier League and the CFL (Canadian Football League) are basedThe UFL is superior.The NFL is racist and inferior.Formula 1 has more history and recognition than NASCAR.What happened to the National Lacrosse League?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Lacrosse_League
>>151184389fucking lmao>>>/asp/ board now
>>151182730The NFL televises games. The other leagues only televise a small handful of games and play the rest on sports network channels that cost money.
>>151243473There are multiple games on at a time genius
>>151243245>>151243434please unalive yourself alreadyover 10 years of spamming the same shitmake it stop
>>151188548It’s so funny when yuros say “who wants to watch kids play” when they watch u16 World Cup and Euro matches and cum in their pants every time some 18 year old Brazilian “wunderkid” makes their debut. You love watching kids play sports.
>>151188394Why do eurofags think relegation is the solution to everything?
>>151244138it is
>>151244722Agree. You shouldn’t be rewarded for tanking with a number 1 draft pick you should drop down a league. Problem is we don’t have a system of professional sports we just like exploiting kids on the cheap.
