re: How obvious is it that the NBA is a vastly superior product to the NFL?

While I think the NBA is better run (at least to the public eye), the NFL is a superior product, and it is not even close.

The Hawks are the best team in the league (or at least close enough) and their games were pretty empty a couple months ago. Like 20% of NBA fans in Atlanta consider the Hawks their favorite team.

Honestly, I have barely watched the NBA at all this year. I do not know why, but I just have not watched it as much.
That means the NFL is more popular... not that it is a superior product.

Beats headphones sell way more than Sennheiser but Sennheiser is the superior brand.

dude, its subjective.

come on, man.

do you not grasp the concept of subjectivity?

there are going to be people telling you baseball is superior because of the lack of a clock and something to do with Japanese ethics, or that football is inferior because it involves base instincts (N. Suh, head hunting).

The definition of a subjective point of view is one based on opinion rather than fact, upon which reasonable people could disagree.
An example of a subjective point of view is a position taken on whether a (given) movie or book is good or bad.

NBA fans are becoming increasingly smug IMO. Why can't we just all be friends?

I hate shitting on different sports. People agree with the OP generally like basketball over football. That is patently obvious. People who disagree do not like the NBA as much or even at all.

Shitting on sports is the lamest fricking thing ever. I don't even understand how people do it and consider themselves sports fans. Soccer sucks, baseball is boring, the nba plays no defense, college basketball plays no offense, the nfl is the no fun league, blah blah blah.

It's not a contest. Just enjoy it all. They are all beautiful for different reasons and once you figure those reasons out, everything is much more enjoyable. And you don't have to watch them. If you don't enjoy a sport, them just dont tucking watch it. It's easy

Yup. It is not that hard.

Also, I completely disagreed with the NBA environment compared to college part of the thread, and I prefer pro sports big time. College student sections are unrivaled.

Check out the new playoff format that was proposed by Adam Silver. Division winners and the next 10 best teams. Conference doesn't matter.

NBA is complete shite that I don't waste time on.

Hendo trumpeting it is proof that I'm correct. . See ULL baseball for example.

NBA has been shite for decades. There's a reason soccer is growing in popularity. NBA is a shite product.

I still really enjoy CFB. The NFL just hasn't been nearly the same.

NBA is ungodly this season. All heil Adam Silver
