Why is football on Sundays almost like a national holiday?


Ever since the invention of television, football has been at the forefront of sport and TV programming, but why is that? in recent years the sport has been on a decline in popularity as far as participation, but still remains one of the biggest sports in the world despite this fact. So, why are people so why are people so infatuated with the sport?

For as long as I can remember, football has been my life. Going to games every Saturday or watching them every Sunday. I loved the sport so much that I even played for 11 years of my life, despite the risks of the sport. Something about it was so appealing that my world did and still does revolve around this sport every fall.

Even if football is not the World's most popular sport, the Super Bowl still rakes in about half a billion views per year throughout the world no matter the teams. More importantly, the National Football League, NFL, brings in about 9 billion USD per year, with that number only set to go up. the most important stat is perhaps why. Football teaches a variety of skills that many other things or sports cannot. Team work, hard work, and determination are only 3 examples of the qualities learned in football.

Football teaches individuals all about the fruits of hard work and perseverance whilst also teaching about the importance of standing up and taking responsibility. The physical aspect of the game is also important but the mental side of things also plays a prominent role in driving a team onto victory. It’s the combination of all these components that make football such a popular game amongst the public. This is all highlighted by how exciting it is to cheer your favorite team to victory and there’s nothing like being at the game in person.

The excitement people get when they watch a game is something unmatched in the entertainment world and that speaks a testament to what football can do for those who search for excitement in their lives.

Without this game many would not have the thing on Sundays that really drives them and they follow and just watching a game can pump someone up so much they are content for a whole week until the next week.
