They're two of the biggest sports in the world and help bring nations together in mutal competition and understanding. As well as being great for the economy.

There's nothing wrong with the NFL, Baseball or Basketball but they're all like 97% dominated solely by the US with only miminal interest around the world.

Isn't it more fun to play with other people? It's like only ever playing single player games.

Wouldn't the best players in America vs the best players in New Zealand be a more fun game than some overpaid twerps in teal shirts who practice in Miami vs someoverpaid twits in bright green who practice in Seattle?

I mean like how many of the Dolphins are even from Florida? The team distinctions are meaningless.

Who won? Oh America again, we beat America again. Whoopie....

I dunno, isn't that somehow less exciting?

I mean even Snooker has that Ding Junhui guy.

It does?

I only know of Japan

In England they play Rounders which is like baseball, but even that isn't popular.

America kicks ass in the Olympics tho

It has a great athletic accumen. If Football and Rugby were as popular as the NFL and baseball, they'd be one of the worlds top teams.
