Really? At this point I desperately want some kind of NFL minor league that pays players. CFB being the NFL minor league is getting annoying, and it gives Stanford a of immense proportions disadvantage being one of like 4 schools that actually give a shit about how their players are as students.
I would like a unicorn, but like the NFL shelling out money to finance a minor league, it isn’t going to happen.

It doesn't need to be the NFL: http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/24300...-big-plans
They're also trying to bring back the XFL. All it takes is for one of these to be a viable path to the NFL for it to cut down on the worst parts of our current system.
That’s fair, though previous incarnations of alternative leagues, including the XFL, World league of American football, and indoor football served more as a place for players not use good enough to play professionally than as a true minor league (though of course some players did move up to the NFL).
