I read his post. I guess you agree with him that America is a shithole? Are soccer players the best athletes in the world? I have no clue who the commissioner of soccer is. He didn’t post his name. He probably doesn’t know. Neither do you. Go ahead and google it. BTW, Bo Jackson was the best athlete in the world. Nobody has come close. He didn’t play soccer, but if he did, he would have run circles around Pele, or over him. And when it comes to revenues, the NFL is superior. Making Goddell pretty powerful.

American football - at Wembley Stadium.

Of course YR is qualified to speak authoritatively about what the rest of the world knows
That is a major sign of personal insecurity manifesting as authoritarian behavior.

Denial and obfuscation of any information not part of the "Approved narrative" according to the DPST manual - Das Kapital!
Keep posting, someOne, it is to Laugh.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forbes...e_sports_teams
Forbes 2018 50 most valuable sports franchises.

7 soccer teams.
After all, Forbes is a capitalist publication DPST's is not familiar with - and on the list for extinction once the DPST's take control.





Rank Team Sport League Value (USD billion) Growth (2017–18) 1 Dallas Cowboys American football NFL $4.800 14% 2 Manchester United Association football EPL $4.123 12% 3 Real Madrid Association football La Liga $4.088 14% 4 FC Barcelona Association football La Liga $4.064 12% 5 New York Yankees Baseball MLB $4.000 08% 6 New England Patriots American football NFL $3.700 09% 7 New York Knicks Basketball NBA $3.600 09% 8 Los Angeles Lakers Basketball NBA $3.300 10% New York Giants American football NFL 06% 10 Golden State Warriors Basketball NBA $3.100 19% Washington Redskins American football NFL 05% 12 Bayern Munich Association football Bundesliga $3.063 13% 13 San Francisco 49ers American football NFL $3.050 02% 14 Los Angeles Dodgers Baseball MLB $3.000 09% Los Angeles Rams American football NFL 03% 16 Chicago Cubs Baseball MLB $2.900 08% 17 San Francisco Giants Baseball MLB $2.850 08% Chicago Bears American football NFL 06% 19 Boston Red Sox Baseball MLB $2.800 04% Houston Texans American football NFL 08% 21 New York Jets American football NFL $2.750 0% 22 Philadelphia Eagles American football NFL $2.650 06% 23 Chicago Bulls Basketball NBA $2.600 04% Denver Broncos American football NFL 08% 25 Miami Dolphins American football NFL $2.575 08% 26 Green Bay Packers American football NFL $2.550 09% 27 Boston Celtics Basketball NBA $2.500 14% Baltimore Ravens American football NFL 09% 29 Atlanta Falcons American football NFL $2.475 16% 30 Manchester City Association football EPL $2.474 19% 31 Pittsburgh Steelers American football NFL $2.450 09% 32 Seattle Seahawks American football NFL $2.425 09% 33 Minnesota Vikings American football NFL $2.400 09% 34 Oakland Raiders American football NFL $2.380 13% 35 Indianapolis Colts American football NFL $2.375 09% 36 Brooklyn Nets Basketball NBA $2.300 28% Carolina Panthers American football NFL 11% 38 Los Angeles Chargers American football NFL $2.275 09% 39 Arsenal Association football EPL $2.238 16% 40 Houston Rockets Basketball NBA $2.200 33% 41 Los Angeles Clippers Basketball NBA $2.150 07% Arizona Cardinals American football NFL 06% 43 New York Mets Baseball MLB $2.100 05% Kansas City Chiefs American football NFL 12% 45 Jacksonville Jaguars American football NFL $2.075 06% 46 Chelsea Association football EPL $2.062 12% 47 Tennessee Titans American football NFL $2.050 02% 48 New Orleans Saints American football NFL $2.000 14% 49 Tampa Bay Buccaneers American football NFL $1.975 10% 50 Cleveland Browns American football NFL $1.950


While I agree with equal pay for gender equal work- it is a capitalist fact that corporations must earn and turn a profit to exist.

When women's soccer earns it's way into the top 50 valued franchises - I will listen to the complaints.

Men's soccer generates far more revenue than womens. They want to whine - I will turn the channel.
Let's hear SomeOne defend diverting revenue from those earning it, to those who do not earn the revenue.

Does wealth re-distribution have a familiarity to it??????

That's actually pretty good considering Soccer is played in many countries especially in Europe. American Football the way we know it is only played here in the United States and not all of the fifty states have a professional football team, such as Montana, Wyoming, North and South Dakota, New Mexico just to name a few.

Wow.

Amigo, you’re going to hurt yourself.

I am not a die hard soccer fan. But most of the planet’s people are, so that’s probably worth something.

Bo Jackson was indeed a great athlete. Shame he never got play as many years as many.

I bet he would have beaten up Pele too. (Breathe).

Murca!

there are some "football" players in football. they're mostly all kickers or punters.

update on this. they refloated their carrier. but now they're looking to repair their carrier. the snag is that they don't have a dry dock that fits the ship dimensions. they're talking about merging 2 dry docks together and extending the length to fit the ship. I think they are taking this russian duck tape too far. lol!

Oh, I’m sure Bo could kick Pele’s ass. But that’s not Bo’s style. Proving you and LM’s posts as garbage is pretty easy. (Yawn)

To me, Wilt Chamberlain was arguably the best athlete ever. Dominant basketball player. World class volleyball player. Outstanding T&F athlete in college. Some might select Jim Thorpe but he was of a different era. Very difficult question to answer.

Wilt usually makes the top 5 in these debates. He dabbled in boxing too. Dion Sanders and Jim Brown too. Jordan does too. I don’t know why. He failed in his attempt to play MLB. Dick Groat was a great athlete. Held Dukes scoring record for 50yrs. Was a MVP in MLB and played in the NBA. Cool video

I can't argue with any one of those athletes. Jordan went back to baseball at an advanced age. Had he stuck with it early on, who knows?
