Comments by "VisibilityFoggy" (@VisibilityFoggy) on "The NFL's Logistics Problem" video.
I was thinking the same thing. Nobody I know from the UK cares at all about American football (I'm American and I don't care either, but that's irrelevant). I wonder if people like the novelty of it now, but would drop off if a regular team was founded. I could see huge crowds showing up four times a year if a UK soccer team played here, but would people show up if an American city got a Premier League team for example?

I think that was a Family Guy episode years back...

That's exactly why I don't watch it, and I'm from the US. It's too start-stop-start-stop. Commercial, commercial, commercial.

Did it prove that, though? Because teams are now moving (or have moved) to those cities. So obviously they feel they need to have a physical presence in these places. In a lot of parts of the US, college football is more dominant than the NFL. I think there are football fans in places without NFL teams, but are there NFL fans (willing to pay outrageous prices to see games every weekend) in places without NFL teams?

I would be in favor of this if the airline that sponsored the team was Spirit and all the players had to climb into their economy section of an A320neo. I've been stuck on their flights to South America with all the "big seats" in front sold out. Walking is a challenge for the first 12 hours after I land.
