Two facts:
1) There are 7.4 billion people in the world. There are only 325 million in the US.
2) Worldwide GDP: 77 billion dollars, US GDP 19.3billion.

Why is the NFL going to London?

To make more money. Globally the market is 22x bigger and 4x more $$.
--- Growing the market in the US will give them a little more money.
--- Getting just a little bit of interest globally would be a LOT more money.
