    NFL isnt the biggest sport in the world. It's the biggest sport in USA... nowhere else

    I live in Jacksonville, Florida. I am a huge Jag fan (even though they suck at the moment 😂). I am super excited Zammer is on the team. I’m really pulling for him to make the 53 and have a long and successful career in Jax. I also love rugby. The Leicester Tigers are my adopted team. I played for the Jax club team in the early 80s and had a ball doing it. What I could remember of the parties after the games was super fun. It doesn’t matter to me if the NFL is the most or least popular sport in the world. I like watching it especially if the Jags are winning. If they keep losing, hopefully they’ll call Zammer up and he makes the most of the opportunity. 🍻

    Jim reminds me of an old mate who used to say everything was the best in the world. If he went to a restaurant he’d be telling everyone at work the next day that it was the best in the world. If he listened to a live band it was the best in the world. If he went on holiday and it was pissing down with rain the whole time he’d still say it was the best holiday in the world.

    For anyone wondering, Louis isn't small, Jim is a giant.

    Is NFL really the biggest sport in the world? I've never seen a game or highlight.

      It's not. Their gassing it... it gets less views than champions league and less than tour de france and less than cricket and a few more sports

      The biggest sport in the world is football without a doubt, and they call it soccer

      @@liammclaughlin8307 NFL regular-season games averaged 17.9 million viewers, Premiership Football games have average viewership numbers of 600m per game. There is a huge difference.

    Every sport is crossing over with other sports now. It’s great we have someone like LRZ to help open that door of the biggest sport in the world. Especially with the World Cup heading over to the US.

    The NFL is a boring game imho. One hour of "football" takes almost four hours to play, with all the tv adds and time-outs. I actually fell asleep watching a game, not at home but in the stadium ffs!

    I think Kansas City Chiefs messed up by selecting him as running back. He was never suited to playing running back and he was judged by those 3 pre season games where he hardly got any opportunities at all in a position he was never suited to in the 1st place.

  • @julienporisse9902

    LRZ has the athleticism, the speed and good size to make it as a WR. I see him more as a Kick Off and Kick Off returner on Special teams to begin with.
    I don’t understand why he’s not playing returner right now … because he has excellent vision as goes space, and using it to get past the defenses. I hope he gets activated soon, because there’s no real reason to waste his talent and Jacksonville needs talent FAST… time for the head coach to activate LRZ

    Cheslin Kolbe would be sensational if he had transferred as an 18 yr old,LRZ & Wade not good enough,speed isn’t everything,all WR’s have speed…….would love to see him make it though

    The Dallas Cowboys are worth 10.5 Bn. They make 11.7 million a home game on just ticket sales. Owen Farrell make 1 M while special team players no one can name avg. 2.7 M. LR-Z makes doubles his rugby salary on the F’ing practice squad.

      Exactly ! Logic - all the dumb hates on this young kid! He’s made 3 million in sales and Instagram growth and promo alone way more than his 250k at Gloucester and £50k international purse

  • @hitchikerspie
    @hitchikerspie 20 часов назад +1

    Realistically his chance of making it is extraordinarily slim, he’s 12 years behind the learning curve.
    I wish him all the best, but probably he sits on the practice squad for a few years like Christian Wade and then comes back to France.

    American football is a blown out pompous display of 6-seconds of play followed by minutes of literal standing around totaling about 8-minutes of play for the entire game, and the league is occupied by the most abhorrent professional athletes in the world. So yea, it’s a great sport filled with great people…(yawn, what a joke)
