Baseball is the most attended sport by the math....

162 games times 32 teams = 5148 games

Football has 16 games times 32 teams = 512 games.....

IF the NFL played 162 games, it wouldn't even be close in attendance.....

First there are only 30 mlb teams and second they don't play 5,000 games a season because every game has two teams playing in it. Your counting games twice. Take those numbers and divide by 2 and you'll have the number, or just look at Wosgrad's post.

But yes everyone knows that if football played 162 they're attendance would be higher. That has been said repeatedly and was not the point  of my original comment.

20 yeas ago baseball was America's past time, not anymore. Football is hands down America's past time. Baseball threated their fans like crap and Football has just exploded all over the world. Just turn your TV on and football is on every channel and has no off season, even now in June NFL football talk is on all day, multiple channels. If an NFL playoff football game were to be aired on the same day as a World Series game, the NFL playoff game ratings would smoke the baseball game rating.

I assume you mean treated thier fans like crap, and if so how did they do that?

Football hasn't exploded all over the world. It's actually not very popular at all outside of Canada and the U.S. There is a reason NFL Europe failed.

No way to know for sure. If was SB game vs a WS game sure football would win, but just a regular playoff game, I think that would depend alot on the teams that were playing in  each event.

I must have something wrong with me...I play fantasy football, run several pools at work, etc. Yet,  I cannot watch an entire pro football game on TV...Bores me to tears. Between the penalties, commercials, blown calls, replay reviews, taunting, etc,  I will have wasted an entire day.
Now college football is another story.

Huffmans just mad that when they went 4a dayton was in another district everybody knows huffman would have killed dayton. I also like the way huffman stole bh best athlete.
[/quote]

Nah. Townley came to Huffman, because he wanted to be in a system that is best for him. Townley wasn't the type of QB for the BH system, so he left, and even the BH fans realized it was the best scenario for everyone. I guess BH didn't need thier "best athlete" to beat yall last year ;)
