This is not remotely true at least America is not full of much is Saudi Arabian billionaires buying their clubs and shipping their players off to the Middle East
Bro europe having passion is the most bs thing i have heard(excluding international tournaments)like mbappe will not leave paris bro he only cares about money
@ timowavne6993 that’s not very Norma at all. It happend 3 times in the last 30 or so years: Los Angeles rams moved from Los Angeles to St. Louis and back to Los Angeles. Los Angeles chargers moved from San Diego back to their original home Los Angeles. The only team that moved to a new city where the raiders who moved from Oakland to Las Vegas and the only reason was Oakland was not an nfl worthy city, they had to use a mlb stadium instead of their own nfl stadium because there was no place to put one. The Oakland stadium was also one of the worst stadiums in the world at the time.
@ timowavne6993 Los Angeles Chargers Date founded: 1960 Las Vegas Raiders Date founded: January 30, 1960 Baltimore Colts (now Indianapolis) Date founded: 1947 Chicago Cardinals (now Arizona) Date founded: 1898 Los Angeles Rams Date founded: 1936 Kansas City Chiefs Date founded: 1960 Houston oilers (now Tennessee titans) Date founded 1960
For many of us Europeans, a sports club is not just a team you cheer for, there is an inherent sense of community, identity and belonging to it, especially if you support your local team.
What community is left if the club gets suddenly owned by some random in Middle East and players keep changing between clubs based on pay. There is no community
@@RavarsenBlogspot First of all, most European clubs are not owned by petrostates and stuff like that. Most of them are not even owned by a single person/entity. As an example, the club I support (Real Sociedad) is owned by over 10,000 shareholders (many of them are fans), and no shareholder can own more than 5% of the club (actually, I think the biggest shareholder owns about 2% of the club's shares). Secondly, players can come and go because of money or other reasons (it's their job after all), but almost all European fans stay loyal at their club, the entity that represents their community.
@@scottwalker4619 you obviously didn't see the situation in Eastern Europe. Clubs are ladders for corupted politicians and people. Through clubs they gain more power.
@@tellurius4951 shit we don't even need to go that far. Even 8th tier English football has a better atmosphere than most professional American franchises.
When Maradona joined the Napoli it was an agrarian south region that barely had any success in football, being taunted by teams from the north industrialized parts of Italy, calling them peasants and chanting: “Lavatevi” (bath yourselves). Maradona help them stomped each and every rival, even the Milan a powerhouse of italian football. Maradona carved himself in the local history of Napoli without a gun, nor a treaty.
@@scndyd16 if someone told me Pelé was from another planet and fell into the earth and was raised here, like Goku, I’d believe it. The best player we ever had.
As an American, I can say that a big reason that the best basketball players in the US mainly don’t play in the World Cup because they view the NBA as more important and don’t want to risk injury. Some coaches also don’t want their players getting distracted from what they think matters more, and in the US, people don’t view the FIBA World Cup as something nearly as important as an NBA championship, giving the players little motivation. Also totally agree with the world championship thing and great videos!
What??they will be serving their country for once? Not like their soldiers killing people in other countries who have nothing to do with them. You call that serving your country??. I mean who want to serve their country when they will turn against you. Look the police that actually are in the country serving.
It's because all these rich spoiled brat players don't care about the country that gave them the opportunity to be rich. There's no such thing as Patriotism or Nationalism for them. It's all about selfishness.
In football the clubs also pay more but players still choose the World Cup over everything else. Even their career. For example Fernando Torres was Spain's best striker and 3rd best itw at one point. He got injured and was told to slowly ease himself to recovery. Instead he rushed an emergency surgery to be able to play the World Cup. He won the World Cup in 2010 but it costed him the rest of his career as he could never reached the same level. He sacrificed his career to win glory for Spain
@@JohnSmith-nj4zqand whose fault is that? I'm told over and over about this capitalism and how everyone looking out for their own self interest is not only good for the individual but good for society. What you hate about the athlete is what you love about America. Why should they give a shit about supporting America? Most NBA players went to shitty public schools and had one parent who had to scrape by on a minimum wage that politicians refuse to raise. America didn't do shit for them why shouldn't they return the favor.
“World Champions” is attributed to the World Newspaper sponsoring the first championship series between the winners of the two baseball leagues that existed at the time. They named it The World Series, “world” because of the name of the newspaper. Other sports in the US picked up the terminology. I’m European and I know this.
Still, is a misleading title. The same way people from USA are called Americans yet they dont represent the whole continent, still they argue its because of the "America" in their country's name. In both cases they have a weak reason to have those grandiose titles
Americans don't question it, because Obviously if the team is the best in the United States; then they are definitely the best in the world. What? You think Canada is going to have a better Hokey team then America? LOL.
@@Percy_Fawcettit’s just a shorthand for the country not some personal attack on other countries egos. Also, in the Anglo sphere, China, India, and many other nations, North and South America are considered separate continents, not one United one. People need to realize the words in English have the ability to hold more than one definition.
No one is better then them the us is the best at all of there 4 major sports no one can complete with them so they are world champions cuse there the best in the world
The NBA and NFL are better than any other league in the world in their respective sports so it's not really ignorant. And if you live in a different country than why do you even care what an American sports league calls their champion anyway? Just screams little brother mentality the way the US lives rent free in foreigners heads.
Teams in America moving is relatively rare, and most moves happened in the 1950s and early 60s or before when the leagues were pretty young. American teams have VERY passionate fan bases, just like European clubs. Trying to make it a contest is silly, just let people enjoy the sports they like!
American fan bases are very different compared to european fan bases. In america you go to the games with your family and sing along to songs that get played in the arena. Here in europe there are games were kids are not even allowed to go to because the "Ultras" are ruthless and dangerous and the fans create there own songs to sing along
@@danielasdf2004 how many American sporting events have you been to? "Singing songs" is not what is dangerous at American games. Fans routinely assault and even murder rival fans in and outside of US stadiums. This is not a GOOD thing of course, but shows how passionate fans are here as well. Fans in Greenbay and Chicago filll up 80k person stadiums in -17c temps, that's passion. I think you are just confusing different traditions with what "passion" is.
@wizard3426 okay, and this is out of 153 teams between the 5 largest Men's leagues in The US/Canada (and The Coyotes are not an old team anyways). That's why I said relatively rare.
Guy is obviously not a Hockey fan. There are straight up wars fought on the ice. The rivalry between the Avalanche and Redwings in the 90's and early 2000"s is the stuff of legends.
Yep. Not to mention the connection original 6 teams have with the cities. Can’t tell you how many people are fans of the New York Rangers because their family is. I don’t even live in New York anymore and still ride or die with the Blueshirts. Plenty of nhl players would play in the Olympics too but haven’t been allowed to.
This guy acts like we only have pro sports, we’re more connected to our college teams than Europeans are to their soccer teams because we actually went to those colleges
@@linktown-blue907 you’re saying that Europeans have connections with their teams and minimizing them, but it’s not only them it’s all of the world that have strong connections with their local clubs
Saying that american teams have zero connection to the history of their local community is not true. Most teams never leave a city and everyone in the city owns a hat or clothing item of the teams. It is everywhere throughout the city and they are proud of their team and the history of their team.
I got a few notes: First, as an American, calling the best team at that sport in a league that is as far ahead as the English Premier League is to MLS (Major League Soccer aka retirement league) is fair. Not only that but I promise you if any team on Earth challenged the "world champ" U.S. based team at that sport with meaningful stakes and insurances in place for money at risk due to injury, they would not just play it but dominate it, there simply aren't world based clubs that play at that level in the "American Sports" outside baseball. In baseball there's the world baseball classic, to prove which country is the best, but the N American teams sign the best players from the whole world making it a true 'World Series' Furthermore, Pro U.S. sports is considered more about money where our college sport is about passion and rivalry. Especially before college athletes could be paid, the vast majority who would never play pro were there for "The Love of the Game" and some free books n it showed.. pro sports was about USA leveraging it's wealth to hire best players on earth and showcase them in high-skill matches like the NBA. Now, let's look at European sport. The pro team is the college team (academy, U18, U21), the fans own parts of the teams and have history, there is relegation and bitter, fierce, tribal Balkan like rivalries. Because the college and pro experience of best athletes is combined, you see both the passion and money being dumped into these Clubs, and they take on supernatural form only American teams like the Lakers and Yankees can rival in terms of global reach and impact. For European Sport at the highest level, the athletes become investment vessels and the opportunity for promotion and relegation incentivize financial investment. You can buy into a team quite literally. This also adds a unique amount of passion and gets rid of "tanking" we see in American draft sports where the worst teams are given the best young players for 'parity' Although both sides have their pros and cons, I think that each system works best for the respective sports they revere, with both sides borrowing the best from each other in basketball to compete in the one sport there's increasing parity between Europe and North America in. All in all, the man makes some valid points but misses some crucial perspective that you'd have to be a native to understand.. just as I'm sure I'm doing stuck on my side of the pond

@@Jaco059yea football hooligans are bad but rioting and damaging an entire city is worse. Like when the eagles won the superb owl a few years ago. Football hooligans are quite different now to what they were in the 70s and 80s , it’s mostly pre planned in a quiet location between two firms , they have a scrap and everyone leaves. At least bystanders won’t get hurt or have their property damaged. If grown men want to drink and fight on a weekend and they go in knowing what could happen then that’s on them as long as it doesn’t inflict on anyone else.
this is completely wrong. you can’t just move a team to a different city out of nowhere, a lot of things have to happen including voting and the city neglecting the team. a lot of teams do have historical connection and it’s also cool how the lakers were from minnesota which has a lot of lakes so that’s why they’re named that even though they’re in la. players have a ton of passion. i don’t think you’ve seen a serious nfl rivalry before. the nfl is super soft but the fans don’t care, they’re crazy. go to philidelphia and say “i’m a cowboys fan” have fun with your life at actual risk. the fiba world cup isn’t as serious as the olympics for americans because they just run through every tournament in basketball with their best lineups. the women’s soccer team was neglected by the country and wasn’t paid pretty much at all despite doing very well. i don’t see you talking about iran not singing the national anthem and how they have no respect for their country.
This is right! Some Europeans don’t get the fact that America hosts so many different cultures of people just like the European continent, so they make generalizations and assume that we are less patriotic about our teams because we don’t have one team represent over 30 metropolitan areas.
You have no idea how crazy people in europe get over Football. While they eat pizza at Restaurants with forks and knives, are quiet and keep to themselves and dont dress in casual sports wear but in more formal clothing the rest of the year, at the worldcup its suddenly like a fricking as revolution is happening to overthrow the imperium of mankind. And there are dozens of factions that all try to coup and countercoup and countercountercoup each other. Thats the level of competition. And I dont get it. Its honestly a bit scary how unfamilyfriendly it all is maybe I'd have more fun with sports if it was more like a friendly tv show contest like in America. lol *no one* is gonna like what I said 😅
Yeah American college sports are more passionate because the roots are more tied to the community that's appart of his point with the franchise seeming passionless however college sports don't compare to the passion of European clubs
Most American sport fans don’t care at all for league trend pandering. Stating that there is no “all out war” is also not correct, as rivalries between local teams such as San Francisco and Los Angeles teams, Midwest teams, Southern teams, and New York and Pennsylvania teams all exist and have existed for years. With the franchise buying, this doesn’t happen often anymore. Teams really only move locations nowadays because the owners of these teams are bad managers who can’t make an agreement with that team’s stadium. Teams being bought out is a better alternative than just being owned by crappy owners. Most of the National league teams have been in their cities for the entire span of their existence. Places like Dallas, New York, Philladelphia, Toronto, and Los Angeles are literally known for having superfans of their teams. Saying that these teams have no “real connection” isn’t right at all. Most American leagues and teams, with the exception of Major League Baseball and the World Series, don’t even consider themselves to be Word Champions. Superfans give their teams these titles because they have obsessive passion, which is another thing you claim that we don’t have… America is way bigger than every European country except Russia. While most European countries host a few professional teams, America itself can hold around 30. The U.S. doesn’t have one singular culture of people, as from just going from L.A. to places such as Dallas, Iowa, Florida, and NYC you’ll see vast differences in how we act, talk, and overall live. Most players represent their cultural region of America, and do not want to risk injury from a World Tournament. There is nothing wrong with feeling patriotic about your European leagues and teams. It is great that you guys have such a passionate sport culture! Please, do not bash American leagues or their fans as we literally have the same exact love for our sports as you guys do.
@@Betisforeveryou just said that America is shit at sports and then u backtracked and said that just because it’s not a American sport it doesn’t count. Make it make sense you twat if America dominants their own sports and international sports then we obviously are good at sports.
We use flares too! It's also due to ultras been either far right or far left too. Like my city Ultras are reaaally far right (I'm a conservative but not as much lol) and we usually beat with the fans of the football team from a city 45 min away from us because they are left. The only time It was really like medieval Warfare we were like 400 hundred in our side against about 500 on theirs with flares, iron rods, baseball bats and such. The city center looked like the end of the world due to red and White flares, tear gas from the Police and smoke cans. Is like people from really diferent politics beating each other using football as an excuse
@@patosasesinos6654are you from Serbia or Netherlands? Because i know Partizan and Zvezda have incredible rivalries (ive been on their games) or Ajax vs Feyenoord
Imagine being european going to Pittsburgh and telling the people the Steelers have no historical significance to the local community. Like the entire city is black and yellow. That’s just one example, teams like the LA chargers are definitely the minority.
@@Whoami691 Soccer is actually more of a European phrase than Football. Europe (Especially UK) changed it because "It sounded too American" but in reality it derived from the British language. It was literally changed 40 so years ago due to the phrase being popular in the U.S. So the sheer fact that you had to change your own sports name due to the fact that it was popular in the U.S kinda shows how petty all this is
I don’t know if you live in the US but it’s not like that at all. One thing that’s different is that you find most of that passion at a college level. These schools can’t be moved and have those deep roots that you say are missing at a pro level. But also there is those deep roots at a pro level as well but some teams get relocated due to not performing well on the business side of things like you said. The passion is truly shown on a pro level during the playoffs in the sport you showed the most which is basketball. The reason why you see it as an entertainment thing is because they play so many games. They play 82 games excluding the play offs. But you are right that the US is different in the way the passion is shown but I promise you it’s there. Just look at the college side of things I hope this helps
@@EduardStinga Its not to the extent of European sports, but yeah, college sports have much more passion and deep rooted rivalries than pro sports (The AFC North has very good rivalries though in the NFL). Also, barely anyone likes the US Women's soccer team due to how entitled they act and how they are towards the US.
While yes, the Franchises in America can be moved, they don’t often move nowadays, and the stadiums are costly and large, making them hard to leave behind. But in College sports like Basketball and Football; whole towns and cities will in essence shut down to watch the local university play, I know in Indiana the rivalry between Indiana & Purdue is crazy.
I am neither American or European....but it's certain that Europeans have a massive inferiority complex against Americans...which they try to compensate by bashing them on different things. Like seriously.....I have seen Europeans going much more cringe crazy in UEFA and English premier league than world cup......
Even me, a European saw this video and thought holy shit can this guy chill it’s just a different culture. Like maybe not having a fucking war on the pitch is a good thing, for example where I’m from if too rival teams are playing in the same stadium one of them has to leave a hour late to prevent fights from happening.
@@atoast8607and don't let us even get started with how wrong he was. For example the New York Yankees are iconic to New York. Also there is violence because of sporting events in the US, but security in the US tends to be more strict about what you can bring in, it's not uncommon to have airport style security checks when entering places where there will be lots of people.
@@atoast8607 it's not just a different culture, American sports I basically devoid of culture. That's the point. It's a business and everything is corporate. Most Americans sports don't even have leagues you can move up and down in. They only have one professional league you buy your way into and they're completely corrupt due to gambling.
Just cuz nfl makes money doesn’t mean we don’t have good fans. Go to Philadelphia after an eagles loss. Have anyone of your fans skipped a life saving surgery to go to a packers game? Who has the loudest stadium in the world? Who has the second loudest?
Honestly I heard this take floating around a bunch recently. But I don’t mind the US calling the leagues championships “world championships”. Cause it doesn’t matter what the teams names are, it matters more to me that it is the highest level the sport can be played as. I care more about the sport and the competition itself more than titles given to them.
But still, i find that to be absolutely ridiculous to call your national champions "World Champions". That means the best in the world, which you are not. You are the best in your country (thats where the term NATIONAL comes from). Thats like saying i'm Germanys best Mathematician only because i was best at my school.
@@moritzgast8481 This again comes from the difference in understanding where my initial comment points out. "World Champions" to me means the best team in the world, and not the best in a specific arbitrary standard. And the talent pool in some sports leagues represent the best talent pool from the world, they just happen to take place in America. Just like the world cup, image if it isn't based on countries and they just redrafted the teams, the talent level is still the same, and it would still be called world cup.
@@Qweerttyiio again no nthe reason why leagues are the best is level of competition which is seriously lacking in the NFL you can run all the adds in the world it's not going to change that and that's ignoring the obvious fact it is a American league like what do you think the N stands for in NFL
I love how people have an entire ass continent against the USA because they get triggered so easily😂 Im not even american but its ridiculous to have the entirety of Europe ganging up on the US
you have to actually play and win against the rest of the world to be a world champion the level of competition doesnt actually matter lets suppose this are the nba champions also champions of the g-league? no right, because theyre two seperate entities, and you cant become champ of both by winning one. the other issue is that countries fight for world championships, not teams.
@@srensen3081Give me a team that can be the nuggets or the cheifs in a game that isn’t from the US and you have your answer as to why they are world champs
@@sodahey7517 you arent world champ unless you compete and win against the rest of the world this is such a stupid take, and i dont even know why youre arguing it - nobody is saying the nba isnt the best basketball league in the world, just that they cant call themselves world champions because of the very nature of a NATIONAL league
The difference between relocation is that in America you can just move a team if it is failing. In England many teams have gone through either administration or just folded. A team in Salt Lake is better than no team.
The only team to do a relocation was a once Wimbledon fc now Mk dons dueto the EFL new regulations due to the Heysel Stadium disaster. The team eventually rebranded and even gave the protest club the history and trophies back. The protest club climbed all the way up to League status and play in the same division as MK Dons
Also in Europe there are basically no salary caps, teams bought by Saudi Arabia and Quatar PSG, Man City, Newcastle, etc the top club in Turkey is funded by tax payers not just stadium wise but basically payroll. But us and Europe sports aren’t so different Mason Greenwood is not only still signed to Man United but it is on loan at Getafe and Miles Bridges still playes for the poverty stricken Charlotte Hornets.
Also when in the NFL they call themselves world champions from 1991 to 2007 we made a league in Europe called NFL Europe. There were teams in England, Germany, Netherlands, Scotland, and Spain. If Europe got on board with the sport we could have had a debate but people vote with their dollars and the NFL still functions while NFL in Europe is relegated to a select few games played in Europe by NFL teams that sell out.
Also there are many alternatives to major league sports NBA competitors are TBT and Big3. The NFL’s competitors regularly fold but the Xfl and usfl merged into the UFL and for St Louis battle hawks they packed 40,000 fans for a team that hadn’t existed for 4 years and only operated for 3. And maybe we can include the CFL but not really as there are no Canadian teams present in the nfl compared to mls, nhl, mlb, and nba. The MLS there is the usl the upsl and the Canadian premier league.For the mlb excluding the minors there are the independent leagues of which the Savannah Bananas sell out games. And for the NHL there are really only the minors from what I can tell. The reason there aren’t more is because these leagues are expensive and besides owners only collages can maintain these leagues (which is why college sports has a cult following and can bring in comparable attendance to the Premier League and Bundesliga ) plus in soccer we don’t see your military branches competing on television or even regularly. Different countries different sports different traditions.
You really wanna try and tell me that Laker or Celtics have no "historical loyalty/ connections tied to the city"? Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal Canadians? Yankees? Dallas Cowboys? You are just coming across as so ignorant

If u look at reality tv shows like Master Chef (that started in the US), u’ll quickly realize only half of the show’s run time is just pointless dramas. For American culture, it’s more about the drama more than the sport itself.
What he's referring to is the depth of how dedicated people are where they're willing to risk their life which to me is insane. For example if you're a Celtic fan or a Rangers Fan in Scotland it's dependent upon which religion you are not which team you like better
@@EduardStinga Do your research buddy. FIBA is pretty non-significant tounament compared to NBA and olympics. Most NBA players don't want to risk an injury or something like that, just for a small prize. It's like if a footballer had to choose to play a match, either in the UCL or UECL, the choise is pretty clear, right
@@TheBoyFromDetroityou cant choose to be in one of those, you qualify for them, and even teams in the UECL play their best players to win it, and also he already said that players can't be bothered to play at the fiba world cup cuz they find it not as important as a champion ship
@@itaybeker5157 Ik that you have to qualify, but I meant like would you rather type of thing. So, let me write it this way: if you had to chance to play for a team in either UECL or UCL, of course you'd choose a team in UCL. Same goes with basketball, if a player has to choose between playing in a pretty non-significant tournament (FIBA) or the best tournament/league in the world (NBA), the choise is pretty clear
@@Joshuathegreen there is a difference between "World CHAMPIONS" and "most likely the best Team in the world" The Term "champion" is a title that implies that you have won a tournament earning you this title (which btw in every sport is a tournament where countries, not clubs compete). What you are talking about is "best Team in the world". If you win what is considered the strongest League in the world, you are most likely the best Team in the world, but not World champions imo, since you didnt win an according tournament (which again, would not be one where clubs are competing).
Same with the NBA. Other competition doesn't stack up at all. The best of those sports play and coach in America. As an NBA fan as well, their teams actually play exhibition games against other leagues during the preseason, and participating NBA teams have almost always won, save for some horrendous teams.
I haved lived in the USA, Uk and India so I can say that American sports are just a business, in India most people play on streets and Europe is just war and banter
Im not gonna lie, sure you have made some good points on the world champions mindset, but cmon, i hate how all these europeans say "our 3rd division football matches are wars compared to american sports" because it is not true, if someone was to go to a passionate team like the Portland Trailblazers, any college football team, etc, you guys would be very surprised, yall criticize american sports too much when like 70% hasnt been to an american sporting event in their life
I lived for 3 years in the US after I quit my country (Vietnam), and I have never been so bored as when I attended a baseball game. But I really liked watching hockey (I even now sometimes look at international match) and in a lesser extend US "football". But since I moved in Italy and discover Rugby, I can't really consider American football an interesting sport to watch anymore. So now I sometimes watch Italian football (or soccer if you want) and Canadian/Finland Hockey and practice rugby with somes friends. Honeslty, I don't consider americans sport are really fun to watch, but I really liked to play with a bunch of friends when I was in the US
Baseball games are entirely for money, baseball is easily the most boring sport ive ever seen, its literally just a place to take ypur friends/family for drinks and hot dogs, its designed to be a business, unlike college sports like college american football and march madness, which is pure passion with rivalries that have occured for almost a hundred years @@neofalz7643

@@Schlesticlequestioning is asking a question not insulting the heck out of somebody because they like a different sport or have a different sports culture
I have a few things to say because this video is full of crap 1. You’re making it sounds like US teams move to a different city every year randomly. Teams are only moved if the team is struggling to pull in proper attendance, or can’t find a proper facility to play in. Saying that franchises don’t have ties to the local city is a straight up lie. The majority of teams in American leagues have never moved. 2. World Championships for American sports are just not really cared about. The exception to this is the olympics. Trust me, as a Canadian hockey fan, there’s not many sport events that are going to get me more hyped than the olympics, especially now that they’re back for NHL players. Players love to compete at the olympics and it’s very important to them. 3. Saying that American sports aren’t passionate is a huge load of crap. I’m not going to sit here and do the same thing you just did and tell you that the reverse is true and that Europeans aren’t passionate. But to sit here and try to say there’s no passion in American sports is one of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard. Fans are extremely passionate about their team and the sports are way more intense than soccer is Edit: oh yah, and 4. It’s completely fair to call them world champions. In each of the 4 American leagues, they have a monopoly on the best players. Any champion from these leagues would kick the absolute crap out of the best team from another league. If you think for one second that for example a basketball team from Spain would have even a slight chance at beating even the worst team in the NBA, you are completely deluding yourself
Calm down kid.U don t even know that europeans play basketball under a different rule than the americans.Ur basketball is soft so the ignorant american can see points every 2 seconds
Brother the point falls completely flat as the NBA boats the best players in the world. 30% of the league is overseas players and it has the most money therefore attracting the best players. In fact when NBA teams played some of the best international teams the NBA teams smoked them, even the worst of the worst NBA teams. And the NBA is more important to the players than the World Cup.
I agree with everything except the history thing. Yes the clubs are franchises but there’s still a lot of history behind a lot of clubs. Not all though. But you can’t say that no club in usa have any history.
@@EduardStingayeah but it’s not like that happens for every team often. It’ll happen when a city doesn’t even care for the team like the Oakland A’s of the mlb. But it might be one pro team out of the big 4 (football hockey basketball and baseball) that gets moved each year. So out of 120+ teams one will be moved a year. And it’s probably like one team every other year. You’re just straight up wrong
It's a world championship because Americans are so dominant at football and basketball that any team couldn't reasonably claim the title without getting laughed at. Same reason that the best NBA players dont play in the Olympics. It would simply be too easy and honestly kinda cruel to the other countries.
The worst part you didn’t mention on top of your valid points is how people like Lebron James use his “influence” to get himself into politics. Sports and politics should never mix ever
Bro got so offened about the fact that the NBA called themselves World champions that now hes just wants to start judging the whole system of every sport
@@EduardStingayou invented it? Good for you, you want a gold star? We dominate the Olympics. We have the best athletes. In many sports except soccer and stuff like cricket, the best athletes come here to play
The world champion part to me makes sense. If the NBA and NFL are the highest level of competition for those respective sports, then winning the championship in the highest league in the world technically makes you the world champs
I disagree with a lot of the points he is making. America also has a lot of passionate fans too i mean all of my family are Red Sox fans and if I told my brother to put on a Yankees hat he would genuinely recoil in disgust. Also American sports teams do have a deep connection to the community and when sports teams are moved it is usually because of greedy owners or the town neglecting the franchise I mean I remember hearing about when in the 1990’s when the original Cleveland browns left Cleveland people built and burned statues of the owner. So it is just stupid and ignorant to say American fans are not passionate or we have a bad sports culture. One final point I have is that sports like football should call themselves world champion because they are easily the best team in the world any year and I am willing to bet you my first born child that if some European football team played the worst team in the nfl the would lose 70-0. So you are just a hater
The thing is, because the NFL is a national league and they aren't competing with global teams they can't reasonably call themselves the world champions, especially as that takes away from the fact that if there was a World Cup for American Football, you could literally have an All star US team and wipe the floor. If a European Football team played the worst team in the NFL btw, they'd be insisting on playing to Association rules, aka Soccer.
Hahaha..okay I have decided to launch a new sports called stickball..in my neighbourhood..now i ll arrange 4 teams to play it..arrange a tournament...set a prize..we ll practice hard..for the title and then winning team will be called world champion of neighbourhood stickball league😂😂(world champion of MBA national basketball association)hahahahah..
@@siddhartham1973i think winning the nba is world champion because obviously the best basketball league in the world is nba which makes players around the world come to nba and play.
I disagree about teams having no connection to the local community they are in. If it's a new team or a recently moved team then yeah that will be the case, but longstanding teams like the Yankees, Phillies, Lakers, etc. are so ingrained in that cities culture that it is almost impossible to imagine them moving.

that's like saying manchester city is a "world champion" just because best players across the world play in the EPL lmao it's still a competition against different clubs from 1 country
there is a difference between "World CHAMPIONS" and "most likely the best Team in the world" The Term "champion" is a title that implies that you have won a tournament earning you this title (which btw in every sport is a tournament where countries, not clubs compete). What you are talking about is "best Team in the world". If you win what is considered the strongest League in the world, you are most likely the best Team in the world, but not World champions imo, since you didnt win an according tournament (which again, would not be one where clubs are competing).
They were not appreciative of the country they play for. Protest on your own time. Rule 50 of the Olympic Charter infamously states that “No kind of demonstration or political, religious or racial propaganda is permitted in any Olympic sites, venues or other areas.”
Please check your information before you post, We are the best at the sports WE created, as an NFL player could murder any other player. Same with the NBA. The NHL, MLB, and the NBA have players from other countries. Our teams have VERY heated rivalries that can and have on many occasions ended in crimes. So, don’t go hating on something American, for whatever reason y’all do.

Some yes. Most no. Fans don’t stand for it and the club will always out live the bad owner.
What community is left if the club gets suddenly owned by some random in Middle East and players keep changing between clubs based on pay. There is no community
@@RavarsenBlogspot First of all, most European clubs are not owned by petrostates and stuff like that. Most of them are not even owned by a single person/entity. As an example, the club I support (Real Sociedad) is owned by over 10,000 shareholders (many of them are fans), and no shareholder can own more than 5% of the club (actually, I think the biggest shareholder owns about 2% of the club's shares).
Secondly, players can come and go because of money or other reasons (it's their job after all), but almost all European fans stay loyal at their club, the entity that represents their community.

As an American, I can say that a big reason that the best basketball players in the US mainly don’t play in the World Cup because they view the NBA as more important and don’t want to risk injury. Some coaches also don’t want their players getting distracted from what they think matters more, and in the US, people don’t view the FIBA World Cup as something nearly as important as an NBA championship, giving the players little motivation. Also totally agree with the world championship thing and great videos!
What??they will be serving their country for once? Not like their soldiers killing people in other countries who have nothing to do with them. You call that serving your country??. I mean who want to serve their country when they will turn against you. Look the police that actually are in the country serving.
It's because all these rich spoiled brat players don't care about the country that gave them the opportunity to be rich. There's no such thing as Patriotism or Nationalism for them. It's all about selfishness.
I agree with this but like what is happening in these replies 💀
In football the clubs also pay more but players still choose the World Cup over everything else. Even their career.
For example Fernando Torres was Spain's best striker and 3rd best itw at one point. He got injured and was told to slowly ease himself to recovery. Instead he rushed an emergency surgery to be able to play the World Cup. He won the World Cup in 2010 but it costed him the rest of his career as he could never reached the same level. He sacrificed his career to win glory for Spain

Teams in America moving is relatively rare, and most moves happened in the 1950s and early 60s or before when the leagues were pretty young. American teams have VERY passionate fan bases, just like European clubs. Trying to make it a contest is silly, just let people enjoy the sports they like!
American fan bases are very different compared to european fan bases. In america you go to the games with your family and sing along to songs that get played in the arena. Here in europe there are games were kids are not even allowed to go to because the "Ultras" are ruthless and dangerous and the fans create there own songs to sing along
@@danielasdf2004 how many American sporting events have you been to? "Singing songs" is not what is dangerous at American games. Fans routinely assault and even murder rival fans in and outside of US stadiums. This is not a GOOD thing of course, but shows how passionate fans are here as well.

Can you respond to the comments criticizing you rather than only responding to the comments glazing you?
Why would he? Then he'd be exposed
I got a few notes:
First, as an American, calling the best team at that sport in a league that is as far ahead as the English Premier League is to MLS (Major League Soccer aka retirement league) is fair.
Not only that but I promise you if any team on Earth challenged the "world champ" U.S. based team at that sport with meaningful stakes and insurances in place for money at risk due to injury, they would not just play it but dominate it, there simply aren't world based clubs that play at that level in the "American Sports" outside baseball. In baseball there's the world baseball classic, to prove which country is the best, but the N American teams sign the best players from the whole world making it a true 'World Series'
Furthermore, Pro U.S. sports is considered more about money where our college sport is about passion and rivalry. Especially before college athletes could be paid, the vast majority who would never play pro were there for "The Love of the Game" and some free books n it showed.. pro sports was about USA leveraging it's wealth to hire best players on earth and showcase them in high-skill matches like the NBA.
Now, let's look at European sport. The pro team is the college team (academy, U18, U21), the fans own parts of the teams and have history, there is relegation and bitter, fierce, tribal Balkan like rivalries.
Because the college and pro experience of best athletes is combined, you see both the passion and money being dumped into these Clubs, and they take on supernatural form only American teams like the Lakers and Yankees can rival in terms of global reach and impact.
For European Sport at the highest level, the athletes become investment vessels and the opportunity for promotion and relegation incentivize financial investment. You can buy into a team quite literally. This also adds a unique amount of passion and gets rid of "tanking" we see in American draft sports where the worst teams are given the best young players for 'parity'
Although both sides have their pros and cons, I think that each system works best for the respective sports they revere, with both sides borrowing the best from each other in basketball to compete in the one sport there's increasing parity between Europe and North America in.
All in all, the man makes some valid points but misses some crucial perspective that you'd have to be a native to understand.. just as I'm sure I'm doing stuck on my side of the pond

this is completely wrong. you can’t just move a team to a different city out of nowhere, a lot of things have to happen including voting and the city neglecting the team. a lot of teams do have historical connection and it’s also cool how the lakers were from minnesota which has a lot of lakes so that’s why they’re named that even though they’re in la. players have a ton of passion. i don’t think you’ve seen a serious nfl rivalry before. the nfl is super soft but the fans don’t care, they’re crazy. go to philidelphia and say “i’m a cowboys fan” have fun with your life at actual risk. the fiba world cup isn’t as serious as the olympics for americans because they just run through every tournament in basketball with their best lineups. the women’s soccer team was neglected by the country and wasn’t paid pretty much at all despite doing very well. i don’t see you talking about iran not singing the national anthem and how they have no respect for their country.

Most American sport fans don’t care at all for league trend pandering. Stating that there is no “all out war” is also not correct, as rivalries between local teams such as San Francisco and Los Angeles teams, Midwest teams, Southern teams, and New York and Pennsylvania teams all exist and have existed for years.
With the franchise buying, this doesn’t happen often anymore. Teams really only move locations nowadays because the owners of these teams are bad managers who can’t make an agreement with that team’s stadium. Teams being bought out is a better alternative than just being owned by crappy owners. Most of the National league teams have been in their cities for the entire span of their existence. Places like Dallas, New York, Philladelphia, Toronto, and Los Angeles are literally known for having superfans of their teams. Saying that these teams have no “real connection” isn’t right at all.
Most American leagues and teams, with the exception of Major League Baseball and the World Series, don’t even consider themselves to be Word Champions. Superfans give their teams these titles because they have obsessive passion, which is another thing you claim that we don’t have…
America is way bigger than every European country except Russia. While most European countries host a few professional teams, America itself can hold around 30. The U.S. doesn’t have one singular culture of people, as from just going from L.A. to places such as Dallas, Iowa, Florida, and NYC you’ll see vast differences in how we act, talk, and overall live. Most players represent their cultural region of America, and do not want to risk injury from a World Tournament.
There is nothing wrong with feeling patriotic about your European leagues and teams. It is great that you guys have such a passionate sport culture! Please, do not bash American leagues or their fans as we literally have the same exact love for our sports as you guys do.

I don’t know if you live in the US but it’s not like that at all. One thing that’s different is that you find most of that passion at a college level. These schools can’t be moved and have those deep roots that you say are missing at a pro level. But also there is those deep roots at a pro level as well but some teams get relocated due to not performing well on the business side of things like you said. The passion is truly shown on a pro level during the playoffs in the sport you showed the most which is basketball. The reason why you see it as an entertainment thing is because they play so many games. They play 82 games excluding the play offs. But you are right that the US is different in the way the passion is shown but I promise you it’s there. Just look at the college side of things I hope this helps

Blatantly insults American sports culture just for being different
"noT nEcEsSAriLY a bAD tHiNG"
Its not just different. Its objectively worse for anyone who genuinely cares about sports. You must be american, showing your low iq.
Even me, a European saw this video and thought holy shit can this guy chill it’s just a different culture. Like maybe not having a fucking war on the pitch is a good thing, for example where I’m from if too rival teams are playing in the same stadium one of them has to leave a hour late to prevent fights from happening.
@@atoast8607and don't let us even get started with how wrong he was. For example the New York Yankees are iconic to New York. Also there is violence because of sporting events in the US, but security in the US tends to be more strict about what you can bring in, it's not uncommon to have airport style security checks when entering places where there will be lots of people.
@@atoast8607 it's not just a different culture, American sports I basically devoid of culture. That's the point. It's a business and everything is corporate. Most Americans sports don't even have leagues you can move up and down in. They only have one professional league you buy your way into and they're completely corrupt due to gambling.

Embarrassing… for you
Honestly I heard this take floating around a bunch recently. But I don’t mind the US calling the leagues championships “world championships”. Cause it doesn’t matter what the teams names are, it matters more to me that it is the highest level the sport can be played as. I care more about the sport and the competition itself more than titles given to them.
But still, i find that to be absolutely ridiculous to call your national champions "World Champions". That means the best in the world, which you are not. You are the best in your country (thats where the term NATIONAL comes from).
Thats like saying i'm Germanys best Mathematician only because i was best at my school.
@@moritzgast8481 This again comes from the difference in understanding where my initial comment points out. "World Champions" to me means the best team in the world, and not the best in a specific arbitrary standard. And the talent pool in some sports leagues represent the best talent pool from the world, they just happen to take place in America. Just like the world cup, image if it isn't based on countries and they just redrafted the teams, the talent level is still the same, and it would still be called world cup.
@@moritzgast8481 yeah but what if your school was not only the best school but all the other good schools had ppl from your school at the top

I love how people have an entire ass continent against the USA because they get triggered so easily😂 Im not even american but its ridiculous to have the entirety of Europe ganging up on the US
I think they can be called world champions because the best players from around the world play in the American leagues
you have to actually play and win against the rest of the world to be a world champion
the level of competition doesnt actually matter
lets suppose this
are the nba champions also champions of the g-league? no right, because theyre two seperate entities, and you cant become champ of both by winning one.
the other issue is that countries fight for world championships, not teams.

The difference between relocation is that in America you can just move a team if it is failing. In England many teams have gone through either administration or just folded. A team in Salt Lake is better than no team.
The only team to do a relocation was a once Wimbledon fc now Mk dons dueto the EFL new regulations due to the Heysel Stadium disaster. The team eventually rebranded and even gave the protest club the history and trophies back. The protest club climbed all the way up to League status and play in the same division as MK Dons
Also in Europe there are basically no salary caps, teams bought by Saudi Arabia and Quatar PSG, Man City, Newcastle, etc the top club in Turkey is funded by tax payers not just stadium wise but basically payroll. But us and Europe sports aren’t so different Mason Greenwood is not only still signed to Man United but it is on loan at Getafe and Miles Bridges still playes for the poverty stricken Charlotte Hornets.
Also when in the NFL they call themselves world champions from 1991 to 2007 we made a league in Europe called NFL Europe. There were teams in England, Germany, Netherlands, Scotland, and Spain. If Europe got on board with the sport we could have had a debate but people vote with their dollars and the NFL still functions while NFL in Europe is relegated to a select few games played in Europe by NFL teams that sell out.
Also why aren’t you talking trash about Asian and Oceania sports the New Zelaanders dominate Rugby and the Indians bleed for cricket
Also there are many alternatives to major league sports NBA competitors are TBT and Big3. The NFL’s competitors regularly fold but the Xfl and usfl merged into the UFL and for St Louis battle hawks they packed 40,000 fans for a team that hadn’t existed for 4 years and only operated for 3. And maybe we can include the CFL but not really as there are no Canadian teams present in the nfl compared to mls, nhl, mlb, and nba. The MLS there is the usl the upsl and the Canadian premier league.For the mlb excluding the minors there are the independent leagues of which the Savannah Bananas sell out games. And for the NHL there are really only the minors from what I can tell. The reason there aren’t more is because these leagues are expensive and besides owners only collages can maintain these leagues (which is why college sports has a cult following and can bring in comparable attendance to the Premier League and Bundesliga ) plus in soccer we don’t see your military branches competing on television or even regularly. Different countries different sports different traditions.

@@TheBoyFromDetroityou cant choose to be in one of those, you qualify for them, and even teams in the UECL play their best players to win it, and also he already said that players can't be bothered to play at the fiba world cup cuz they find it not as important as a champion ship
@@itaybeker5157 Ik that you have to qualify, but I meant like would you rather type of thing.

@@Joshuathegreen there is a difference between "World CHAMPIONS" and "most likely the best Team in the world"
The Term "champion" is a title that implies that you have won a tournament earning you this title (which btw in every sport is a tournament where countries, not clubs compete). What you are talking about is "best Team in the world". If you win what is considered the strongest League in the world, you are most likely the best Team in the world, but not World champions imo, since you didnt win an according tournament (which again, would not be one where clubs are competing).
@@Joshuathegreen and before you tell me that winning the NFL is such a tournament, it is not, since it is only a national competition
Same with the NBA. Other competition doesn't stack up at all. The best of those sports play and coach in America. As an NBA fan as well, their teams actually play exhibition games against other leagues during the preseason, and participating NBA teams have almost always won, save for some horrendous teams.
He can't talk bad until he has wached college sports
I haved lived in the USA, Uk and India so I can say that American sports are just a business, in India most people play on streets and Europe is just war and banter

I’d like to see how much passion a little soccer player would have in an Oklahoma drill with an NFL linebacker.
your kidding bro. Football is american so their world champions. For Basketball the best players in the world play in the NBA. so yeah world champions
When English teams win their league, they don't call themselves world champions, and who made football?
But the teams who won would fucking kill the other countries by 20+ points also look at the gold medel count
Im not gonna lie, sure you have made some good points on the world champions mindset, but cmon, i hate how all these europeans say "our 3rd division football matches are wars compared to american sports" because it is not true, if someone was to go to a passionate team like the Portland Trailblazers, any college football team, etc, you guys would be very surprised, yall criticize american sports too much when like 70% hasnt been to an american sporting event in their life
I lived for 3 years in the US after I quit my country (Vietnam), and I have never been so bored as when I attended a baseball game. But I really liked watching hockey (I even now sometimes look at international match) and in a lesser extend US "football". But since I moved in Italy and discover Rugby, I can't really consider American football an interesting sport to watch anymore. So now I sometimes watch Italian football (or soccer if you want) and Canadian/Finland Hockey and practice rugby with somes friends. Honeslty, I don't consider americans sport are really fun to watch, but I really liked to play with a bunch of friends when I was in the US
Baseball games are entirely for money, baseball is easily the most boring sport ive ever seen, its literally just a place to take ypur friends/family for drinks and hot dogs, its designed to be a business, unlike college sports like college american football and march madness, which is pure passion with rivalries that have occured for almost a hundred years @@neofalz7643

@@Schlesticlequestioning is asking a question not insulting the heck out of somebody because they like a different sport or have a different sports culture
I have a few things to say because this video is full of crap
1. You’re making it sounds like US teams move to a different city every year randomly. Teams are only moved if the team is struggling to pull in proper attendance, or can’t find a proper facility to play in. Saying that franchises don’t have ties to the local city is a straight up lie. The majority of teams in American leagues have never moved.
2. World Championships for American sports are just not really cared about. The exception to this is the olympics. Trust me, as a Canadian hockey fan, there’s not many sport events that are going to get me more hyped than the olympics, especially now that they’re back for NHL players. Players love to compete at the olympics and it’s very important to them.
3. Saying that American sports aren’t passionate is a huge load of crap. I’m not going to sit here and do the same thing you just did and tell you that the reverse is true and that Europeans aren’t passionate. But to sit here and try to say there’s no passion in American sports is one of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard. Fans are extremely passionate about their team and the sports are way more intense than soccer is
Edit: oh yah, and 4. It’s completely fair to call them world champions. In each of the 4 American leagues, they have a monopoly on the best players. Any champion from these leagues would kick the absolute crap out of the best team from another league. If you think for one second that for example a basketball team from Spain would have even a slight chance at beating even the worst team in the NBA, you are completely deluding yourself
Calm down kid.U don t even know that europeans play basketball under a different rule than the americans.Ur basketball is soft so the ignorant american can see points every 2 seconds
Brother the point falls completely flat as the NBA boats the best players in the world. 30% of the league is overseas players and it has the most money therefore attracting the best players. In fact when NBA teams played some of the best international teams the NBA teams smoked them, even the worst of the worst NBA teams.
And the NBA is more important to the players than the World Cup.
I agree with everything except the history thing. Yes the clubs are franchises but there’s still a lot of history behind a lot of clubs. Not all though. But you can’t say that no club in usa have any history.
I didn't try to say that, it's just super weird how they can move from one location to another
@@EduardStinga yeah but that rarely happens
@@EduardStingayeah but it’s not like that happens for every team often. It’ll happen when a city doesn’t even care for the team like the Oakland A’s of the mlb. But it might be one pro team out of the big 4 (football hockey basketball and baseball) that gets moved each year. So out of 120+ teams one will be moved a year. And it’s probably like one team every other year. You’re just straight up wrong
@@joshlien2118most teams it actually does happen to most fan bases are passionate this stupid TH-camr lied and you uncritically said yes master
It's a world championship because Americans are so dominant at football and basketball that any team couldn't reasonably claim the title without getting laughed at. Same reason that the best NBA players dont play in the Olympics. It would simply be too easy and honestly kinda cruel to the other countries.
Fair if america wanted to they would dominate any sport
The worst part you didn’t mention on top of your valid points is how people like Lebron James use his “influence” to get himself into politics. Sports and politics should never mix ever
You're naive as a toddler

“Aussie” yeah right you’re definitely from Melbourne.
@@EduardStingayou invented it? Good for you, you want a gold star? We dominate the Olympics. We have the best athletes. In many sports except soccer and stuff like cricket, the best athletes come here to play
The world champion part to me makes sense. If the NBA and NFL are the highest level of competition for those respective sports, then winning the championship in the highest league in the world technically makes you the world champs
I disagree with a lot of the points he is making. America also has a lot of passionate fans too i mean all of my family are Red Sox fans and if I told my brother to put on a Yankees hat he would genuinely recoil in disgust. Also American sports teams do have a deep connection to the community and when sports teams are moved it is usually because of greedy owners or the town neglecting the franchise I mean I remember hearing about when in the 1990’s when the original Cleveland browns left Cleveland people built and burned statues of the owner. So it is just stupid and ignorant to say American fans are not passionate or we have a bad sports culture. One final point I have is that sports like football should call themselves world champion because they are easily the best team in the world any year and I am willing to bet you my first born child that if some European football team played the worst team in the nfl the would lose 70-0. So you are just a hater
The thing is, because the NFL is a national league and they aren't competing with global teams they can't reasonably call themselves the world champions, especially as that takes away from the fact that if there was a World Cup for American Football, you could literally have an All star US team and wipe the floor.
If a European Football team played the worst team in the NFL btw, they'd be insisting on playing to Association rules, aka Soccer.
I'm not American but I like my sports not being super aggressive and people (athletes, fans) acting like wild animals.
