Because the NFL is a sport no one outside of the US cared about and the only way to expand was to find new ways to get other countries interested. Most of the EPL's viewers are already outside of England. NFL is also a sport where it's common teams just pack up and move state for financial reasons. They have a minimal dedicated fan base.

Six NFL teams are in the top ten most valued franchises. They hardly needed to expand. They did, and it is a huge success in London.

We are in an English thread where I was talking about comments the Liverpool chairman made. The opportunity doesn't exist for us, but knowing the number of ex-pats in N America, it would be a tremendous success. (obviously, not the OF game getting moved) Agree, disagree, like it or not, it is going to happen within the big 5 leagues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
