How long before football becomes the most watched sport in the world?

I think it will with 20 years, look how its taken over England now that we're sending regular season games to London, in 10 years the NFL will take over Europe and soon be the most watched sport in the world, just like our movies are.

Re: How long before football becomes the most watched sport in the world?

Don't think it ever will, sure the NFL can draw a good crowd out of curiosity in Europe once a year but the truth is that if the rest of the world loved American football as much as we do then NFL europe would still be around. Then again though it was always kind of understood that NFLE was only a D-League and nothing more so who knows what would happen if the NFL actually gave say London a true NFL Franchise that would play in the big league.

Still don't think it could ever surpass Futbols popularity though.

Re: How long before football becomes the most watched sport in the world?

In my mind Ive always thought that it would branch out if we made rugby players from Europe learn football i always thought we could have a small Olympics competition over it i mean why not?

Re: How long before football becomes the most watched sport in the world?

hey, now it's becoming popular in China.
NFL is coming in the Chinese Market and the New England Patriots assigned some players here twice for teaching young guys here in the College.
