Which do I betray the NFL to during the off season?

AFL has a unique game play. It has more offense, more speed and a fluid game. It has ex-NFL players and I enjoy watching them excel in this new game.

NFL Europe has actual NFL players and has more chance of spotting a star from it. It has the same rules as NFL, they just play in Europe. Another reason why I like Europe, is I see 50k+ people in the stands cheering like mad. These people take pride in their teams, and that means alot to me, seeing how people will stop watching a team as soon as they go below a .500 record.

So, in your opinion, what's worth watching? Both have a distinct pull and rivalries, alot of what makes watching the NFL good.

Discuss and explain your choice.

I've never seen people cheer at an NFL Europe game.

Nobody cares about American Football except Americans.

MLB is entirely worthless. ENTIRELY.

Pretty much every "national" sport is horrible. College basketball is where its at.

Any home game played in NFL Europe by Bracelona or Reine < sp? > is packed. Even in little stadiums, they sell out the stands. Even Frankfurt who has fallen in last few years still has a good 40k in the stands.

Also, AFL has some teams that pack houses. Tampa Bay usually does, as does San Jose. Chicago was a real weak city at first, but with their streak going, they went from 8,000 to a good bit more < I wanna say it was like 23.5, but the Chicago wasn't available last week. >

Jon Gruden's an awesome AFL player and coach. He brings what his brother does to the NFL. I look forward to watching both leagues improve.

Oh, and with the National East division being so hot between Florida, Philly and Atlanta, I'll be watching that unfold, too.

Gruden is a good coach, ill give him that. He can also be a complete asshat. And yes, the storm generally have a very large crowd, especially now after winning their last 6 just to stay in playoff contention.
