> There is no way in hell people playing in foreign gridiron leagues has the talent of the NFL (Well maybe the Canadians..)

Any Canadians with talent end up going South to America where the money is. I predict Canadian Football will die off eventually.

Some of our New Zealand Samoan players are pretty formidable, and they are HUGE — like The Refrigerator — and they start out life at two years old learning Rugby skills. One day, they might give the US a run for its money. Or more likely go over to America to play in the NFL.

It will be a very, very long time before anyone plays Gridiron better than America does. It is in your national psyche, just like The Rugby is in ours.

And there is no event that is better than the Superbowl anywhere in the world.

I think you are right that the CFL die off. The problem is that there is only 8 teams.. I have seen some stories some Canadians prefer the NFL to the CFL..

I think I have seen some Samoans play in the NFL.. Mostly either on the Offensive linemen or Defensive linemen..

I happen to agree. However, I am seeing more Foreign American Gridiron Leagues popping up.

I always watch the Super Bowl no matter who is playing.. I prefer that to than the World Series..
