This is a new Football league that had its inaugural games this weekend, carried by CBS no doubt.

Players are a mix of undrafted College players and former NFL draftees that couldn't make it. Coaches, most of them anyway, are former NFL coaches. For example, Atlanta's coach is Brad Childress (Former Vikings HC, Chiefs OC etc)

I didn't watch, but evidently the ratings were BETTER than the NBA

I did watch a few highlights. I saw part of the San Diego/San Antonio game where the Quarterback got LEVELED and refreshingly enough there was no flag.

Obviously, the production values are a bit lower, but the hits were hard and the players are talented. This shit could catch on I think.



The players aren't millionaire prima-dona's and the game moves at a faster pace with less commercials...AND it's not ****ing REF Ball where the Zebra's are stacking the deck in one teams favor. It's refreshing and I think I am going to like it. Oh, and they respect the Military as well.
