[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Going to the football game is also about seeing the dance team and the marching band, seeing neighbors, the kids hanging out, etc. its a social event.[/quote]

This is a good point. Marching bands are so large, you could see half the parents in attendance and know that they are there for their child in the band. Or they could have one in football, one in band, or one in cheerleading. Etc.[/quote]

Now ask yourself why all those groups are at the football game instead of the soccer game (or any other sport for that matter).[/quote]

Because football is more hype than sport

4hr game with 15 minutes actual action [/quote]

In an average NFL football game, there are only about 11 to 18 minutes of actual, live playing time, despite the broadcast lasting over three hours, with most time spent on commercials, timeouts, and strategy huddles. Studies show that less than 10% of the total game duration involves the ball being in play, with action often lasting just a few seconds before stopping for breaks or replays[/quote]

And yet it dwarfs non youth soccer in popularity and particularly in revenue  Why is that?  Honest question.[/quote]

Low IQ and big money marketing 💰 is a great combination for those enriching themselves [/quote]

lol - we already had this talk a few pages back - it's not just low IQ people watching football. Keep believing that and stay in your sportsball bubble[/quote]

Not all low iq people watching

The event doesn't require high iq to engage an audience because of all the extra curricular bells, whistles and shiny objects that makes up for the limited action on the field [/quote]

They do that for you low IQ watchers.  And on that will leave you to your miserable self.  Bye[/quote]
