I agree, a good topic.

For me, easy choice........NFL.

I can think of only one plus for the NFL - higher level of play. Everything else goes to college.

College by a wide margin. I rarely watch a complete Pro game anymore until the playoffs.

Of course, having the Cardinals as the local team doesn't help.

I gotta go with college football too.
I can watch just about any two oollege teams play... Abilene Christian vs. West Texas A&M? Sure. When it comes to the NFL, I can only watch my Iggles play.
Monday Night Football with the guys... no thanks.
Super Bowl Party? What food and beer are you serving? Pabst and brats? Okay, I guess I got nothing better to do.

You can throw the packers in that again for a while I fear. Looks like Favre will go out being sacked into retirement:bang: :bang:

As far as the argument, College is great because of school or state pride, everyone has those ties and not everyone has that tie to the NFL. As a packer fan born and raised, the argument is simple, Bison on saturday, Packers on Sunday, and any other football I can fit in is BONUS.

I'm with you on that. Give me the DIII national title over any NFL game (except for my beloved Saints) any day of the week.

For me, there is alot more loyalty in college football, therefore, more of my heart is invested. I don't get nervous and sweaty when watching an NFL game

College football hands down. The overall atmosphere is so much better. Despite being an avid Eagles fan, I haven't been to an Eagles game since they played at Franklin Field in the early '60's, and have never longed to go to one. Never wanted to expose my kids to the 'rabble'. OTOH, we had such great afternoons at college football games, regardless of the teams.

I'm usually taking a nap on Sunday afternoons, recouperating from my Saturday college game. My choice is I-AA college football.

I like the NFL, but i LOVE college football. I can watch just about any college football game, i have to be interested in the NFL team or the game needs to have some playoff importance to watch a game. Plus i care more about my college teams, Notre Dame and Lehigh, more than i care about my NFL teams, the Pats and Raiders.

I actually prefer high school football because the cheerleaders are younger.

Whoa what?

That's the thing about those High School girls, we keep getting older, they stay the same age:thumbsup:

I'd pick college over the pros, but I have no problem watching pro football as well. Easily the number 1 and number 2 sports to watch for me.

I have 2 extra tickets for the Cardinals game 10/29 at Lambeau.
I paid a premium price though for 4.
