American football is a very lucrative sport. Far more lucrative than football. As at today, American Football is the highest grossing sport in the world. The Dallas Cowboys of the USA is the richest sport club in the world with net-worth value of $5billion. Only real Madrid came close with $4billion. I am certain Nigeria will definitely profit from this sport if we look into it.

American football is a very lucrative sport. Far more lucrative than football. As at today, American Football is the highest grossing sport in the world. The Dallas Cowboys of the USA is the richest sport club in the world with net-worth value of $5billion. Only real Madrid came close with $4billion. I am certain Nigeria will definitely profit from this sport if we look into it.

Lagos leads others follow

This ur analysis get as im be oooo. Though football may not be as lucrative as d american football, but it is second or third to it. still, 9ja football na wack.........after investing a lot into it.

The thing is Nigeria should grow her economy.....she should pull out 80% of her population out of poverty then all other things will follow.....the sports will naturally grow, the education will naturally improve, the infrastructures will b world class etc.

MrBrownJay1:


thats simply due to TV right, sponsorship and league revenue etc.... american football is only famous in America, and for that matter most people in the world dont really care about such sport. to give you an idea: the biggest American football game is the SUPERBOWL which is viewed by roughly 160M people worldwide, while the biggest game in football is the WC final which is viewed by roughly 560M people worldwide. so as much as there may be more money in US from American football, the most famous entertaining joyful game to watch is by far FOOTBALL

now, the important question nobody is asking IS: what is this woman (wearing a jersey and protection) doing with all these men?!

Of course anything American has to be more valuable or the richer than the others. They own the dollar. They control everything.

Name one company anywhere in the world more valuable than their American counterparts?
