[QUOTE="mhnessie, post: 527565, member: 4324"] I must admit you are right, Sandolf.:oops: But compared with soccer its still a very American sport and has, with 28 %, a percentage of foreign players that is far behind our football/soccer leagues. For example the EPL has a foreign player percentage of 69 %, German Bundesliga 45 % and the Primera Division in Spain roundabout 40 % I never realized that at least 1/3 of the MLB players are foreigners, always thought its more similar to the NFL were less than 3 % (!) are players from outside the USA. However, just looked up these numbers and found them quite interesting. Manni Burgsmueller, is it your autograph card ? Nice memory. :tup::) For those who dont know Manni Burgsmueller - he was a very good and well known goal-getter for Dortmund and Werder Bremen. He scored more than 160 goals in the Bundesliga, retired when he was 41 years old and had another career as a kicker for Dusseldorf Rhine Fire ! Indeed the NFL missed a huge chance to establish Football in Europe, Hamburg Sea Devils or Frankfurt Galaxy were quite popular too. And I dont understand why they only go to London with these regular season games, I still think there could be a market in other European countries too. [/QUOTE]
