In 2021 Patrick Esume, a former player and coach whose current fame is largely due to his involvement with Ran NFL, launched a new semi-pro pan-European league of American Football called [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin creatively]] the "European League of Football". Given the pre-existing contacts between the people responsible for the league and the [=Pro7/Sat1=] Media Conglomerate, they also got a pretty sweet TV deal with usually at least two games every weekend broadcast live under the "ran" brand.

* GameOfNerds: True, this isn't Baseball, but the way Roman Motzkus approaches the game has shades of this. He just ''loves'' stats, including such obscure ones like the win percentage of the Dallas Cowboys depending on the roof and door of their home stadium being open or closed. That despite - or because of - the fact that Motzkus himself had a quite storied career as a Bundesliga Wide Receiver for the Berlin Adler

Ran NFL (their own spelling: ran NFL) is the German show that carries two regular season games of the UsefulNotes/NationalFootballLeague every sunday (''Jeden Verdammten Sonntag'' as their slogan goes) as well as all playoff games, all London games and most Thanksgiving games. They even show the Pro Bowl. While they are usually in London for London games and have a team on site for the Pro Bowl and the Super Bowl, the bulk of their coverage is produced from a studio near Munich with the commentators and experts sitting at a table and "netman" Christoph "Icke" Dommisch assisting them with a Latop at another table. They are those German guys the NFL likes to upload videos of on their social media pages.

They are those German guys the NFL likes to upload videos of on their social media pages. Most of the people involved were fairly unknown prior to their stint at ran NFL, but Frank "Buschi" Buschmann[[note]]Who announced his retirement from NFL coverage effective after Super Bowl LI and will work for another channel on different sports in the future[[/note]] was a household name for his involvement with many, many sports, particularly soccer and basketball and Jan Stecker was known to some for his appearance on several auto shows after his stint as the QB of the German national American Football team. The unique approach to sports coverage is credited with the rising popularity of American Football in Germany and due to the extensive involvement of social media in the show (critics say Icke's only job is to "read tweets") it has become something of a pop cultural phenomenon with several newspapers reporting on the show and how it transformed the "Nischensportart" (roughly a sport with only niche interest) into a trend affecting large parts of society.
