That is abigger crowd as some soccer-clubs have for their home games.That leads us to the financial problems: No tv-revenues, no commercials.I think that's where the NFL gets its money from. Small soccer-clubs havesmaller crowds coming to their home-games, but get a lot of money, because there is a revenue-share in the Bundesliga (Top soccer-league in Germany) too.Therefore NFLE just spent money and never earned money.Maybe we should have sold stocks like some well-known football-team did, back in the early days..........</blockquote>
