    Some people might watch, especially gambling bros. On average, the vast majority of people will NOT watch flag football regardless of which genders are participating. You know who especially won’t watch? Women. The demo you actually want to tune in. They won’t. I promise you.

    But women are playing and competing in football on the highest international levels already… Oh, I see. You mean USian rugby a.k.a. hand-egg.

    Not even women themselves support other women playing sports ☕

    The interest around Corvix keeps climbing naturally — no forced marketing.

  6. @BenitoBrennan

    November 16, 2025 at 6:18 pm

    The beauty of Corvix CRV is its simplicity — a clear AI-driven product with long-term vision and real application potential. If executed right, this could be a breakout of the year.

  7. @ValentinaHeim-u5n

    Smart traders are already positioning around CRV Corvix before hype kicks in.

  8. @ElmoParr

    November 16, 2025 at 6:18 pm

    Corvix CRV continues to grow steadily in community size and engagement.

  9. @DelCoffin

    November 16, 2025 at 6:19 pm

    Once the first listings hit, Corvix could go parabolic fast.

  10. @MasonRockwell-k3y

    November 16, 2025 at 6:19 pm

    Corvix CRV could surprise a lot of people.

  11. @HorariaPuig

    Corvix might be a game-changer in AI and DeFi integration.

  12. @DouglasShull-l9r6z

    November 16, 2025 at 6:19 pm

    The data behind CRV Corvix is solid — strong tokenomics and real development progress.

  13. @DeepaAbel

    November 16, 2025 at 6:19 pm

    Corvix CRV looks like one of those sleeper projects that explode later.

  14. @LinwoodSherry

    November 16, 2025 at 6:19 pm

    I’m expecting Corvix to trend soon once volume picks up.

  15. @HerbDesantis

    November 16, 2025 at 6:19 pm

    Corvix CRV seems built for scalability — I like what I’m seeing.

  16. @CordeliaDeguzman

    November 16, 2025 at 6:19 pm

    The Corvix CRV project blends innovation and practicality perfectly. Its roadmap shows scalability, long-term sustainability, and a clear AI vision that most others lack.

  17. @DinahWatt

    November 16, 2025 at 6:20 pm

    Corvix CRV remains one of the better bets in current presales.

  18. @alleLathrop

    November 16, 2025 at 6:20 pm

    i wish flag football was a sport they had around back when i was in school, and would totally watch 🙂

  24. @kimwatham8289

    Uhhhh this isn’t some monumental thing

  25. @kimwatham8289

    Talk faster preacher boring man. Your not revolutionary or speaking new truth

  26. @CaimanChris

    TED talks have somehow transformed from a educational program to shark tank for ideas. Makes me think about the History channel when it flipped from true history to wacky revisionism.

    Tldr: can’t wait for the ‘Bigfoot’ and ‘why eating dirt is good’ TED talks

  27. @TriggeredJelly

    November 16, 2025 at 9:19 pm

    I was curious if this was a comedic speech or a preachy one. Preachy. So get lost.

      Nope, sorry, handball is already taken. 😂

    Absolutely ladies should get the chance to play organized football.

    But if they want to play professionally, they need to know what their selling point is.

    Is it going to be the intensity, excitement, and world-class skills? Probably not because there are better leagues for those.
    Is it going to be because of lower ticket prices? Probably.
    Is it going to be because of the fact that these are women? Most likely.

    I suggest you wait till the WNBA sort their things out before you do anything about a WNFL.

    OK, here’s what we need to do to get this off the ground. You need to film a flag football game in a major football stadium. No holds barred on the filming. Not sure how to do it but the stadium needs to be 100% full and the filming should be equal to an NFL game. Exciting announcers and excellent photography. I’d be glued to every minute of it. I’d much rather watch 18 remarkable women on the field, showing the grace, strength, and talent, and a bunch of guys covered in armor. Go big

    The future of literally nothing is women.

    Every child deserves equal opportunity to pursue their passion, no matter their gender. Imagine the possibilities if every door were open—true equality starts with access. Powerful message.

    Football? You mean The handegg?
