nice to see your passion, i just dont think this sport will ever be big in the USA, well, it wont, not as long as MLB, NFL, GOLF, and the NBA are alive, and in Canada it will never compete with the NHL. but it is such a huge sport everywhere else.
It could be. They have great athletes in the US to make the cut.
Problem is like every other sports, they always want to control everything.
We are the stupid a** in Canada that let the US take over much of Hockey.
Every f*ng expansion is always in the states and we know the only reason is cash.
They put so much cash in it that in the end the sport itself becomes more a business.
They have the most % bandwagon fans per capita. In hockey that is.
As to if it compete in Canada with Hockey ?
There is more kids playing football than hockey if you didn't know.
Anyone who never played, for instance like Doc... doesn't even know what they're talking about when it comes to what it takes to play a game.
In another thread, Doc was asking what the Habs fan can do now that they're out of the playoffs...
Well that shows how he doesn't know just how much here in Mtrl it will be wild during the world cup.
Tell you what.... lets brake some glass and burn a couple cop's car and they'll probably start paying attention to it in Toronto.
Betcha they'll copy Mtrl's fest once again.
Who knows Vancouver might again do the same... a year after !
