Yes, wrestling is fake, but "Hulk" made a comment, like most do on exposure to AFL for the first time. The two Dallas Cowboy players that witnessed the Geelong vs St Kilda game, during the year would agree, but will probably not admit it. "The NFL has some of the greatest athletes in the world. " AFL players would run rings around them. Most NFL players would not last 20 minutes in the AFL. Simply because they don't have to run and run and run on a continual basis. Most would be spewing their guts up after the 15 min mark of the fist quarter. |

Quoting: Khnum 455005Correct. But it has to be said, do you think it really matters in comparison. It all boils down to the show for the bread and circus audience. Hypothetical. If the American audience had to choose a gladiator sport for entertainment value, not knowing anything about NFL or the AFL. Who would the populace choose? They would surely choose AFL over NFL? ? |

Americans are choosing soccer,that is growing masive over there soccer is a giant,AFL while better than American football cant match the growing power of soccer Soccer can't match the unique nature of AFL. Yes sooccer IS the world game, but still, based on entertainment value, still doesn't cut the mustard IMO. The USA will never allow soccer to supercede the NFL. But in the OFF season, yanks should choose a side in the AFL and be merry. You'll never be bored. After all that, soccer is boring, though i respect it for what it is. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 774541Loads of American schools have stopped having American football teams because fear of getting sued soccer is growing BIG,soccer has a more powerful place in the American school system,the amount of kids that play soccer is many times bigger than the kids that play American football in the USA(yes its true) soccer will catch up and is catching AFL can only dream of getting to the level of soccer,in soccer you can be 5ft five and be the best in the world(maradona) or you can be 6ft 7 and be a great player The thing is with AFL small kids can compete with the bigger lads conclusion soccer = sport for everyone and thats why its the biggest game on the planet |
