Kel el Ware was the first prospect i loved considering where we were projected to pick. Automatically, that meant that he wouldn't be there. then...

There has been a lot of talk about his motor. Maybe he has eased some of those concerns and a team is willing to take a chance on him.

Evan Sidery @esidery Kel’el Ware is generating buzz to potentially be drafted in the lottery, per @NBADraftWass ...

Yeah. The Lakers can get anyone they want because basketball players, while celebrities, aren't on the top tier with rappers and movie stars, they're...

New York just kind of sucks. There are a lot of good reasons to visit and live there short term, but it isn?t somewhere you?d want to stay. Too...

Sure but the point I'm making isn't about the fans, it's about the leagues themselves. The NFL seems happy to have a complete stranglehold on...

Sure, there's less of a big market appeal in the NFL than the NBA (not that that's helped the Clippers/Nets/Knicks...meanwhile the Nuggets won the...

I disagree I think most Americans understand that football is something that's only popular in the United States. Like another poster said most...

Who is using Laker tax except Lakers media and fans ? Like most fanbase, they tend to overvalue their own assets so they feel they have to pay...

This is totally untrue. There's actually what's referred to as a Laker tax. Where they have to overpay to get a deal done.

You may be right but both leagues needs fans outside of the US in order to complete their growth. They all look at the money the Premier League get...

Yep and that's one of the main reason why New York franchises are struggling to attract Big Time FA despite the big market aspect.

I have tried hard, but cannot seem to get into rugby. It seems very boring to me. Guess it is what you are used to.

Seems like this would preclude anyone choosing to go to New York

Not to be disrespectful but Americans are really not concerned about how popular our sport is with the rest of the world.That's why we call it the...

Most of you are missing the point It's not really about the NFL or even football, it's about a business plan that makes a sport more popular. And the...

This is absolutely the case. I really think most Americans don't understand exactly how insular a phenomenon the NFL is. From what I can gather,...

People everywhere will always support the hometown teams or teams that represent their country, there will always be fans regardless. Even if the...

1st Kansas City is not a big market team. 2nd they just happen to have a very good HC and QB. It's not that KC is in the SB a lot lately, it's the...

Then why is every NFL game played internationally sold out well in advance of the game?...

And yet the Chiefs are in the Super Bowl every year while the (defending) NBA champ hasn't made it out of even the 2nd round since 2019.

If you think that Tom Brady is known by most people outside USA, you will be surprised. I'd say even his wife is more famous than him in Europe. ...

It may hurt things domestically to some extent, but the NBA doesn't really mind that too much because they are, at the end of it all, a business...

I think that the fact that the NBA is popular on a more global aspect hurts it domestically for the fan that is invested in their team. Most...

I think global fanbases also need to be kept in mind. Apologies to Americans, but absolutely nobody outside of the USA cares about the NFL...

It doesn’t need to be as popular as the NFL or whatever. The NBA is the NBA. It is not the NFL. Every sport has its pros and cons. All have issues...

As I am fully behind having more parity and mechanism to protect the smaller market, it will be always harder for NBA to reach parity. Don't...

It does not make a difference how much talent the NBA has. The way it's set up it will never even sniff the popularity of the NFL . In fact I just...

I would say the NBA is in a fantastic spot right now. Not because of the choices made or the flaws as you rightly pointed out. There is a ridiculous...
