"The NFL has undoubtedly replaced archaic Major League Baseball as the premier sports league not only in the United States, but throughout the world."

Throughout the world? I think you've got the wrong football.

futbol
basketball
hockey
american football tied with baseball

The NFL may be the most popular league in the U.S., but in the world...no way.

The article is supposed to be from the "persona" of a football team, trying to persuade its argument that they are #1. When I wrote that the NFL was the most popular in the world, it was basically hyperbole coming from the mouth of a personified NFL franchise to prove its point.

Just trying some new experiments with voice, point of view, etc. Don't get all rattled; I realize that "soccer" is the most popular sport in the world.
