re: NFL looking to play regular season games in Germany

If the NFL wants a true developmental league, to expand their footprint and make more revenue, they should seriously consider bringing Europe, Canada and USA together for a new "World League" merger. Europe loves American Football, obviously the CFL has been successful and if they could find American markets without NFL teams, it would have a legit shot to make it.

NFL WORLD LEAGUE:

European League:

London Monarchs
Scottish Claymores
Barcelona Dragons
Rhein Fire
Frankfurt Galaxy
Cologne Centurions
Berlin Thunder
Amsterdam Admirals
Hamburg Sea Devils

Canadian League:

Toronto Argonauts
Montreal Alouettes
Saskatchewan Roughriders
Winnipeg Blue Bombers
Calgary Stampeders
BC Knights
Ottawa Redblacks
Edmonton Elks
Hamilton Tigercats


American League:

Columbus
San Antonio
St Louis
Milwaukee
Oklahoma City
Birmingham
Memphis
Raleigh
Orlando


Feb-May timeframe. 12 game regular season schedule. 8 league games. 4 crossover games consisting of 2 each from the other leagues. 8 team playoff. All 3 division winners. Top 2 teams get a bye. The remaining teams get seeded by record or by SoS if the records are identical. Could be really cool.
