    Because there is great football being played without all the politics. Plus the players are giving it their all every down every play regardless of what the score or their teams record is. That's not always the case in the NFL.

    In addition to the college vs pro aspect (playing for love of the game vs getting paid). There is always going to be that identify that we have with college, because a lot of us went and support our school...no matter what. Or we grew up in that town or region and will always identify with that college. With pro sports, players change teams, teams change cities...basically it is a business and it is difficult to have loyalty when that is the bottom line.

    Cuase they play for the love of the game and are all about the team. NFL is for the money and individual players.
