NFL Europe has sent something like 25 players to the Pro Bowl and has proven itself to be a capable developmental league.

The problem is that NFL style football with average players is really boring compared to the college game, and that problem is not easily overcome since the purpose of the league, of course is to develop NFL talent.

What the NFL should do, is take a Lesson from the NBA, and FORCE ESPN to broadcst every single game, just like the NBA does with the Godforsaken WNBA....

Yeah, I agree. There are so many college teams but the talent only goes to the really prominent schools. Steve Spurrier used to really on merely the talent of the players he got. Now in Washington, it's much harder when there's more parity and more talent on all teams (however hard that is to believe). Defense especially is tougher in the NFL, which gives him troubles and keeps him from scoring 50 points like he did.

But I prefer NFL. The sloppy play in college is unimpressive. The slow tackles that are too high and to slow are one example. But that's okay, they're still teenagers, and they have homework to worry about. (some of them) I still watch on Saturday, despite the poorer play, because I support the local team.
