The fact that the country's population is very large isn't that relevant hereYuh really think that a country's population being very large isn't relevant here A country that's 1000 times more populated than T&T doesn't matter that they get crowds 100 times bigger? For every 6 people on Earth better than 1 live in India -Sorry but you're not being logical, it is relevant.You are right. What I really meant was that your point - a country that's 1000 times more populated than T&T doesn't matter that they get crowds 100 times bigger - is irrelevant. What's relevant is that they have a profitable league and Trinidad doesn't. The population could have been a million times larger than Trinidad's, but if they pulling big enough crowds (10K+), that's all that matters. The fact that football has only penetrated a small portion of the Indian market is actually a positive rather than a negative as you alluded to - which is why Nike willingly sposnors a "lesser" football league. In the end people care about the bottom line. The Indian population and market support a professional football league, even if it is a second or thrid tier sport over there. You are arguing about the relative popularity of football in Trinidad vs India. Investors, Nike included really only care about the absolutes.
