leedsunited Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 A noble experiment that should have died a lot sooner than it really did.Anyway, for me, the World League (or NFL Europa - is the "Europa" supposed to signify some high class like an expensive latte or something? What happened to plain ol' NFL Europe?) died when the Montreal Machine folded into that soulless land known as defunct-franchisedom. Good night, sweet league.

Good night, sweet league.I think the name change had something to do with "Eurpoa" being closer to the name of the continent in most European languages.Could be wrong, tho.

Alphabet Man Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I think as soon as they changed it to NFL Europa, it was doomed. twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youcan'tseeme Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Kinda sad, but really, good news for us Americans, and possibly Canadians?? That means more football here, and new logos/jerseys!Indeed it could open the dorr for new talent to join the CFL, so it's good new over here!Will they still include the Europe teams as classics in Madden.
