I agree to an extent and used to be into Arena, but now I can only watch the same exact play so many times in a game. It's good for what it is but not a lot more.

I do remember when the WLAF was around though when I was like 7-9 and enjoyed that. Some good players have come through other leagues; Jim Kelly, Herschel Walkey, Steve Young, Reggie White (all USFL iirc). I guess the part that appeals to me is that it's more of a pro-style game. I love the college atmosphere but sometimes the level of talent is too skewed in one direction, game is too gimmicky, play not fluid enough, etc and I think that sometimes you can get a more smooth league out of the "secondary" leagues.

They really should have tried to figure out a way to get more than 4 teams for the inaugural season though, that alone drops the interest in my mind.
