A lot of the kids coming from the 'ghetto' don't have to pay for their equipment. and you know this from experience? because I do and I know for a fact that is not true. Reality check: I grew up in and live in the poorest county in PA. The average household income is $27,000 dollars. The average per-capita income is $15,000. I live in a shithole county, a shithole town, with dirt-poor people that can't afford a damn thing. So yeah, I do.

If it can expand so easily around the world, it's the global game, i.e. the real football. Soccer or Futbol. Isn't that what you call it? When did you start calling it football? Futbol is te Spanish term. Soccer is the American term. Football is the English term and has been used ever since the sport was first invented.

You just said there are always ways to play the sport even without money. Without money, you can't play football the way its meant to be played. And these African countries don't have the money to be able to fully experience American Football. Europe does so what's your arguement there? Why did NFL Europe flop? You guys are giving me one extreme example. NFL Europe flopped for the same reason that MLS sucks here. Ignorance.

I do know plenty of people that don't even have a computer, however.

You guys are giving me one extreme example. What about Southeast Asia? What about South America? NFL Europe is a minor league system. It simply cost more money than it was bringing in. How many people went to see the game in NFL London last year? Guess what...the MLS isn't doing amazing over here...why? It is a minor league system.

Ignorance. the MLS actually makes revenue though which is why it's been able to survive as long as it has.., they were losing tons of money with NFL Europe and the Redbulls are going to make a ton of money when they move to their new stadium next year.

NFL Europe started in what 95 or something and I think it stopped in 06 or 05.
