AAFL delay…then not…then…? 2008-03-07 07:02:29 It’s really a decent concept. College Football hungry locals boast teams with regional players. The All -American Football League isn’t looking to compete with the NFL. It’s using the scraps left over for players and isn’t trying to play during the NFL Season.

NFL Draft Prospects | Top 10 QB’s 2008-03-04 05:49:07 The interesting thing about this year’s draft class actually has nothing to do with this year. Scouts have lamented over the weakness of the quarterbacks coming out in next year’s draft; artificially inflating the value of this year’s offering.
