don't you think there's a lot of similarities between the two?

I'll elaborate a bit...

- Both were on ABC for a while, until ABC gave up on them

- Both had teams in New York, that were owned by communications giants, who tried to dominate the league and in doing so brought about the downfall of these leagues.

- Both were more popular in Canada at the end of their lifespans than in the US

- The excessive expansion that didn't really work

- Both thought they were the game of the future in the US.

- Despite everything, many Americans thought of these sports as totally foreign.

and there's probably more.
