Agreed except 90% of his statement is about money and how the pandemic has affected them.

We are talking about the main American sports. Theres not much to disagree with. NBA for example has no grassroots play except basic pick up games.

Yes people watch it but there is just not in anyway the numbers compared to playoffs. There are no narratives except basic rivaliies

Sure but the difference is that there are narratives in football because of all the things involved both from a national point of view and a historical. In basketball there is nothing like that literally every game means nothing except rivalries...

It all depends on money. If all the money from sponsors and TV goes to the SL then it doesn't matter what the likes of Everton or West Ham do in the champions league the money will disappear they won't be able to run the way they currently do and...

Anything that means the destruction of football below the. Elite level is bad on every level and should be stopped by everyone

Nah cause look on the other side.
