NFL = ?

NFL is just entertainment. CFB and MLB is played with heart.

Manny plays with heart?  :-? ;D   jk

I think there is a lot more heart in the NFL than with the MLB. Look on a sideline then look at a dug-out in the middle of the game and tell me which one has more emotion. And you will see a lot more bloody, beat up, football players playing than a pitchers who have a bad fingernail or blister. Look at QB's who play with broken fingers......

Would you say A blister on the throwing hand of an MLB pitcher affects his job more than a "turf toe" of nfl quaterback.

If you've ever had tur toe you would make them equal.  I thought turf toe was nothing till I got it once.

The "corporate structures" have nothing in common. Less than half

the field is competative in NASCAR, they're just filler. Money teams

win...Period!

If you think the NFL isn't controlled by the "money" then I got some spectacular ocean front property I'll let go real cheap just up the road from you.

In the NFL all teams have comparable payrolls. How they allocate their dollars is up to each team. Case in point: Jason Elam, Atlanta Falcons. Elam loves Denver and the feeling was mutual. However, the Falcons offered twice as much money which the Broncos decided they could not match. It's all about "allocation", but the total pool of money for salaries is equal.

I prefer watching professional football over college ball. I guess I am one of the few.

I'm with you. I enjoy the extreme high level of talent found in NFL teams, you just don't get that in college. Not even close.

I also like how NFL games tend to be alot closer than college games.  Every time I look at college scores, it's always like 65-7, or 72-3. That sounds competitive!

I'm a Giants fan, I live in NY, so I get to see all of the games. All of them. Syracuse is an hour away from me and I saw one of there games this year. Hows that work?

Also, at the end of the NFL season, there's.....gasp....a clear cut champion!  Can't say that with college ball. Who did the computer rank as number one this year?  Too many polls, too many "Bowls." I could give a crap unless its the SUPER Bowl!

I gotta say that I think NFL is a far superior football product.

How so, I didn't say anything about the individual teams I said the NFL was controlled by the "money" just like evrything else.  

Saying each team has a salary cap and allocates the money out differently says nothing at all.  Oh yeah there are ways to play with those numbers as well to buy yourself a SuperBowl just ask the Patriots.
