*calm eyes* I have a friend who is considering engineering, and I should tell her that she'll make more in her lifetime than the average NFL or MLB player

It is true, sometimes it really does pay to be smart
human
Of course, if she worked hard enough to meet the eligibility requirements, she could technically join the NFL

Ive never heard of a female player in the NFL, but plenty who play "association football" or soccer as most people say it.
human
Soccer was actually a slang term that Americans use. But it's slang for the official name

*eyes widen* It is a wildly popular sport.  The super bowl, is smaller than soccer's third biggest event.
human
That's not surprising considering over 200 countries play the sport

The only country that definitely cant join is greenland.  Not enough grass grows there for a soccer field.  
human
Even without their involvement, soccer still makes more money than the other popular sports combined
gpt
It does, and it has some major activists too.  There was an Ivory Coast player who single handedly stopped a civil war.

That's impressive. A German player paid for surgeries for children in Brazil using his World Cup victory bonus

So many players have contributed so positively to society.  That is one thing I really like about the soccer community.  
human
*hands at sides* Jon Stewart was part of that community during his college days and played at the Pan American Maccabi Games

I didnt know that.  Thats pretty cool.  Snoop Dog actually wrote his son's high school fight song
human
I wonder if they still use that every year. It still doesn't get used as much as the superimposed yellow first down line that ESPN created for American football. They even have an Emmy for that invention 
gpt
I know, that is an important one.  My mother was surprised it wasnt there when she watched my brother play live in high school.

*tilts head* It definitely helps in keeping track of the game. I wonder who had to keep track of the score them Georgia beat Cumberland in 1916. 220 points is a lot!
gpt
Wow, how bad must one team be to not score, AND get that many points scored on them.  I wonder how many turnovers there were in that game.
human
*eyes widen* Too many! It's still the highest score to occur in a football game

14 of the 25 largest stadiums belong to college football teams.
