There's always Arena Football!

The AFL is not football.

I love the CFL and would like to see the NFL adopt some of the rules used in the CFL. Obviously the CFL is not the NFL but at least its real football.

How is the AFL not football, but the CFL is? If you're going to hate on one (which I don't know why you would), hate on them both

Why do I have to like both or hate both? That's idiotic. I like the CFL and dont like the the AFL.

The CFL is played on a real field with a full compliment of players. AFL is played on a hockey rink with what 5 or 6 guys, thats not real football.

I dont hate the AFL any more than I hate monster trucks or poker. They are all interesting but not real sports.

I do consider AFL to be football, I just don't like it. I don't like the whole 50 yard field, plus the high scoring games. Maybe if the AFL changed it's regulations n whatnot to the same as the NFL I would like it more.
