Let's say the NFL developed differently in that in the 1930s it decided that a minor league system was better for developing players and figured they can make money in smaller towns like Canton, OH, Peoria, IL, Allentown, PA, Rochester, NY with minor league football like baseball and they got people to pay money in towns like that to support minor league football and paid football players in the minors next to nothing and like MLB was able to make money and survive with a minor league. Would LSU FB be such a big deal to you? Would it be like women's hoops or men's baseball. Popular but nowhere near the 90,000+ in the stands and a playoffs at the level of DII football? Would you still follow LSU FB at the level you do now with no national tv coverage like minor league baseball?


Ever attend an LSU baseball game?

Yes, a few of them. I never missed a FB game while at LSU and I went to a lot basketball games at the PMAC, but I never went to as many baseball games.

I was though at the 100 anniversary game with Tulane back in the mid 90s.
