I did not say it will; I said it might. And the existence of people willing to play does not guarantee the surrounding market and culture necessary to make a sport the dominant sport in the US. I think that depends a lot on that sport's pervasiveness in our culture, and in particular in high schools and colleges which are effectively our professional feeder system. If less players start going into youth football, and then less players are going into high school and college football, I think less people in our culture will pay attention, decreasing its market size and culture significance. Again, I'm not saying this will happen. I'm saying it might.
