Yes, some of the folks here have been skeptical of the idea. That's not a reason to throw up your hands, so to speak. My suggestion is to answer those criticisms carefully, calmly and in detail. If you can convince the folks here -- the biggest fans of the sport -- you will have your biggest supporters on board to start.

Fans here are necessarily jaded about such ideas. They have watched in frustration as the Australian Football League itself has botched opportunity after opportunity to sell the sport in the USA. They have watched one proposal from promoters after another die on the vine. If you believe in your concept then sell them on it.

Regards,
-Rob
