things would start to change if you had an American that was a world class player

I usually have NBCSN on Sat mornings in the restaurant i work, and while the regulars where initially bitching about not being to watch Gameday or some shitty 11 am CSUA CFB game, they have now started to notice teams they like and players and are always asking about the rules, etc...

exposure would turn alot of heads, and having a real american hero being the face of some international league would def spark that here. but i think in the next 3-4 years, this NBC deal will really start having an effect.
