How so? Only 3-4 teams have a realistic chance of winning. In the NFL, every team has a chance, small or large market. "Sub/mini-competitions" are for suckers.

In the old days, many teams could win the top division. Some of those proud franchises are now buried in the second and third division. Ex. Nottingham Forest

I find it bizarre that the non-elite franchises think it is ok to be satisfied with developing players and battling to avoid relegation. There should be a class revolt. The worker franchises must be electrified to over-throw the industrial bourgeois elite.
