    You have a great point, but for me it is still too much conjectures, but looking to theses conjectures I still disagree. Moving to another country would destroy those teams, cause they aren´t just the teams, Liverpool actually is a global brand but it is the Liverpool that plays in the premier league and have their rivalries, leaving UK would mean leaving all these parts of the brand behind. It is also a very different scenario, those teams in US move to other cities in the same country and still compete in the same tournament keeping a lot more of their previous brand.

    For me your example would be much closer to MLB, NBA, NFL and MLS if you thought about Liverpool goint to Bristol, for example. In this scenario I can see better your point but I still think that the club would lose a lot of their capital and the brand would suffer with the ridicule of the situation for the average football fan. But it is just another opinion based in my previous opinions.

    As a non north-american I never understood this franchise system. How could you cheer for a team that will move anytime to a city more profitable? In Europe and latin america, if your city sucks, is becoming poor or so, the team will fall to the second division and will deal with that cause they are from that city, cause they are a club, not a franchise. For me this makes much more sense.








  • I firmly believe that this is because the way we use computers and cellphones and also the way the ads are used, I still watch commercials in TV without a problem, but there is commercial max 20 to 20 minutes (I’m looking bad to you MLB) and I also not so active choosing what to watch so I’m more relaxed. On youtube, If you watch sometimes 4-5 minutes video you get 20 seconds ads, in 10 minutes you have more cause they put ads in between.

    Another factor is the quality of the ads, the number of right wing political ads, dumb ads or ads from companies that I hate from my soul is immense, In TV I usually find ads creative and sometimes I like to watch (yeah, I said that) when is not too spammed, just for the art lol.

    I saw it, it was shit, specially because I remember the first. The plot of the 2 is horrible, even comparing with first that was generic.

    The story moves around the fact that humans want to get rid of blue ppl from a place to explore mineral resources, the leadr of the blues go away, instead of massacre the blue ppl they go for the leader in another place (???)

    And half of the movie is just kids doing shit to help the plot show the water, this movie was a long and slow torture.
