skinnyJM Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 I did a search, but should have known no one brought up NFLE lately. :blush: Even if you can understand why this league is feasible, tell me why we just can't call it "NFL-Germany + Amsterdam". :unsure: Either way, The quality of play is really poor. :sleep: :D :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even know that league still existed. I stopped following it when they changed the name from WLAF and got rid of the American teams including my favorite, the NY/NJ Knights.

It is to work on their skills during the offseason, and hopefully get them better. Basically, it's scraping the bottom of the NFL barrel in talent.

sdb815 Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 Well I watch it, even though there is only six teams? NFL Europe and Arena football keep me happy until the NFL season starts back up. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amsterdam Admirals Cologne Centurions Frankfurt Galaxy Rhein Fire Hamburg Sea Devils Berlin Thunder As I recall, there USED to be teams elsewhere in Europe but now it is mostly just Germany.

davemania Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 OK, so why can't we call it NFL-Germany + Amsterdam ? 585757709[/snapback] Because it sounds stupid and it limits the market to Germany and Holland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
