    I made mention to the fact that World Soccer is more popular in the OP...can you read?

    I just thought it was cool to see a list of all the team values compared

    I never made any claim to popularity

    great marketing?...ok

    I knew Man U was the highest revenue generating team in the world so I assumed almost all the top 10 teams were soccer teams. This is pretty amazing that the NFL generates so much more revenue from it's fans in the USA than world soccer. I guess the soccer fans aren't as hardcore as I thought they were. After all, people put their money where their hearts are.

    When you say the NFL makes a lot more then mention the popularity of soccer, it sounds like you're being sarcastic or mocking it.

    You know what I'm saying, eh?

    I think it is the fact that there are more fans in the US that have money...???

    people all over Brazil are head over heels nuts for soccer but none of them have a penny...

    could I be right?

    no....I was just shocked to learn that the NFL generates more money than soccer does...

    but now that I look at it...it really isn't that big of a surprise since soccer is so popular in poor countries...

    You could be right. I didn't realize that Europe was that much poorer than the USA especially with all their free health care, higher education and stuff.

    To put things in perspective, I think a World Cup brings in more revenue then an entire NFL season.

    I don't understand what was the point of your post, it's not even logical what you're claiming...those 20 NFL teams are all inside the United States borders...name me a country that has more money then US, a more important question...name me a country that has a greater marketing scheme then US...soccer is a much more popular sport, however there are hardly any elite teams in the United States.

    higher education?

    the Ivy league is in the US...they have what? Oxford?

    alot of Europe is very poor.

    free health care?

    how come they don't have dentists over there?

    what I am claiming?...what is not logical?

    that the NFL generates more money than World Soccer...yeah...Forbes says so....I would have to think that includes the World Cup.

    and you are right, soccer is more popular, but the NFL brings in more cash.

    The key word there was "free"(although it really isn't). The Ivy League as with pretty much every other form of higher education in the US is not free, then again neither is Oxford.

    NFL brings in more money because of the market it's in.
