[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]American football is a dying sport. No parents in our social circle let their sons play tackle football due to the risk of long term brain damage.

And flag football is just ***[/quote]

You couldn't be more wrong about flag (and regular for that matter). Your circle isn't representative of the nation as a whole whatsoever. People started saying exactly what you are saying 10+ years ago and the NFL keeps raking in billions and continues to hold the top spot for professional sports by a large margin. The pipeline of talent apparently hasn't dried up by you and your circle choosing not to play **SHOCKING** [/quote]

Gotta love those 3 1/2 hours games with 17 minutes of actual live action [/quote]

And yet, far and away the most popular sport.[/quote]

Well, please take a look at the average intellectual levels of the population and you'll see why

If only popular meant quality [/quote]

This is a losing argument, lots of smart, dumb, leaders, losers, etc all love football. They're raking in billions not just from "stupid people" as you suggest. [/quote]

Which parts of America is HS soccer and college soccer most dominant and revered?

That aside it is all the extracurricular activities and marketing that makes the event of football so popular. Not the game on the field itself

Take away all the pregame, halftime, post-game shenanigans, tv timeouts, cheerleaders, tailgating, commercials TV you'll see [/quote]
