“...they just aren’t into the sport.”

Exactly! It’s most likely the same reaction anyplace would get when the circus comes to town.

If the NFL is Hell-bent on international expansion, they should look at Mexico; makes much more logistical sense.

What about expanding to Canada?

The Toronto Blue Jays come to mind.

There’s two big things they want from international expansion: money, and the next generation of players. Mexico doesn’t have much of the former, and they’re already drawing players from down there. Europe has plenty of both, and the NBA has proven it’s a good market to tap into.
