By the way there was a Nigerian that used to play the game, very good and known all over. His name is Okoye nicknamed Nigerian nightmare. He was one of the best running backs that played the game, he used to play for Kansas. Nigerians will be very good at the game because we r naturally strong.

Baseball will be cheaper and easier to export to Naija. Kids can throw hit and catch balls in open spaces in Naija. Naija kids are naturally athletic and will learn fast. In a decade we may start cutting into all the millions of dollars going to Latin American players. The demand for foreign players in baseball is higher than football (American) or Basketball. And you make more money as a baseball player than any other sports except may be basketball. Another means to help out our poor masses by exporting professional athletes.

Nigerians have seen enough brutality, we don't need FOOTBALL, SOCCER is cool and clean. We don't need overweight bullies, we already have enough unfit men in military uniform.

Nigeria is not ready for American football ! period !
Financially it is expensive kitting up a whole team, different pads and helmets for different positions, then teaching the rules and offensive philosophy also the defense is like. . . . i dont even kno where i would start from explaining
the economey of Nigeria wouldnt let football thrive, equipment are expensive to purchase and maintain
Nigerian culture will frown at such an immense amount of physicality and violent hits, no Naija mother will sit in the stands and hear the CRASH ! of helmets and pads and not scream out. it would be tagged a violent game of hoodlums, and it is the direct opposite !
it will take an average soccer player, weeks of studying and memorising plays to pull off a smooth game.
but am still really proud of ma Naija boys making a Name in the NFL and NCAA, but am sik of having only tackles and linemen.
WE NEED MORE NIGERIANS ON OFFENCE ! ! ! ! ! where the RBs? WRs?
