Then us voters vote amongst those 5 to 10 teams. Then once a winner is determined, 5 to 10 local artists design a logo for the winning team name, and we vote on that.

BleedTheClock Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Sounds like we'll be making a thread in 1 year's time about this league folding. There just aren't enough players laying around to make this league interesting and fun. Sadly, the NFL will never have any real competition.

///mcompact Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 The small insight into some of the rules are interesting. I'd definitely watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuskieTitan Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Football during the springtime, I don't mind. Given that they want to establish themselves as a feeder league, I could see this working out. But the NFL will never have direct competition.

It is aimed at being more of a developmental league that could be a feeder system to the NFL it seems. WOuld be interesting to see the possibility of NFL teems maybe even sending UDFA rookies and project QBs to this league to develop some more skills. In a perfect world, it could be like MLB's minor leagues. But we will have to see how it all shakes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you want the CFL to abandon its fairly different rule system to become a training league? Man, I would never want that to happen. The CFL is unique and has as much historical tradition as any sports league in the world. I'd hate to see that lost. As for this league, I am open to all kinds of wrinkles as far as rules go but removing kickoffs from football is a deal breaker for me, no matter how boring kickoffs are any league without it that has people over the age of 12 playing in the games is a league I probably won't watch.

The CFL would continue as is but basically NFL players would you know, develop and play for them instead of rotting on practice squads and the bench but it'd be year to year for certain players. More of an arrangement than the NFL buying the CFL to use it as a training league than anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd still prefer the CFL keep its independence. And I doubt many CFL fans would have any interest in such an agreement. I think that if the NFL wants a training league they should just create one.

That is how we did it when I was growing up on the playground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
