Let's put it this way. The most famous professional football association in America is the NFL. It's made up of the American Football League and the National Football League. The Super Bowl is the showdown between the best teams in each. The Super Bowl is comparable to China's Spring Festival broadcast-- it's a mega-entertainment event watched by everyone, and the viewership is incredibly high. Even popular stars compete to appear in the half-time show to increase their own fame.
