If he comes over then he'll be the exception to the rule. Soccer is the most popular in the world and you can even go play in Communist China and get paid millions. I can see a MLS or USL dropout going back to college football when they are bottom out. That happens all the time. The US academy system is honestly an embarrassment to sports in general. We develop athletes with the first touch skills of three toed sloths. Pay to Suck.
Reminds me a little bit of Kickalicious -- some of his trick kicks really were very impressive (not that it would have correlated to success in the NFL, though he didn't get much of a shot with Detriot).
Sure it's the most popular because shithole countries love it and watch it. NFL and MLB are still top dogs when it comes to making money. Don't believe me? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_professional_sports_leagues_by_revenue NFL MLB Premier League NBA LOL.
Good. I'm glad. It makes up for the embarrassment of youth development soccer in this country. We are the short bus of technical futbol.
That list is out of date but NFL will retain #1 status (TV deal for Premier League is $7.2bn without taking into account any other revenue). Not exactly sure what your idea of "shithole contries" are.
terms like shithole countries are what proud americans who are completely brainwashed by nationalism say when they dont know what they are talking about.
Dang. I have to read more threads. Irishguynumber gets destroyed in probably every thread he posts in.
he has gone full retard recently. its like he is going out there trying to get shit talked to him and made fun of.
This video shows his accuracy, his ability to miss a defender coming at him and his ability to take a shot.
Where are all these "bad kickers in the league" you're talking about? FG accuracy rates have skyrocketed. The "Lou Groza" Award? Named after a big, straight-on style lug whose "50% ish" FG rate was the norm back in his day. In addition, a slew of rules regarding FGs and kickoffs (inc. moving the goal posts back) have been in response to a facet of the game that "took off" performance-wise: placekicking.
