That's been the hypothesis for a while now, probably decades but I haven't been paying attention. I'll believe it when I see it. After all, you can make a lot of money in baseball too, and it's not as hard on the body, but the best athletes are almost invariably football players. The game has a hold on the American psyche that will be hard to overcome.
