I was thinking about this the other day. While I like having football take up the entire weekend in the fall, I think it would be awesome to have football almost year round. You'd have college football practices start right after the Super Bowl or so, have the season in the spring, have NFL practices once the college season ends, then have the NFL season in the fall/winter. There would literally be football the entire year.

Obviously it will never happen. Purely hypothetical.

HC wouldn't be able to smooth out the infield without missing a football game mayne.

Well in that case lets make College/NFL have 48 week seasons with the Superbowl on the 52nd week of the year and then start the next season the next week

No roster limits, just survive.

I get the idea of hunting. I've even been myself a few times when I was younger. But sitting in a treestand or shooting house is pretty boring compared to a packed FB Stadium on a Saturday.

No. Hunting season, cool nights, good food, bourbon, and college football are supposed to go hand in hand. Spring is for college baseball

It would be cool to see more HS 7 on 7 in the spring if it was organized. If there was a better publicity and a legit national tournament, I think people could get behind that. As far as college, it would be idiotic to do it in the spring because rookies would have to wait a whole year to play.

Probably the last reason I wouldn't want college football in the spring. Nobody gives a shite about college baseball outside of Baton Rouge.

It would just suck to not have college football saturday's in the fall. That's all the reason I really need.
