Oh damn, that's a bad article. The best football will always be played at the highest level. Whatever your political leanings on the recent news, nothing changes once the ball is kicked.
The NFL won't have the emotional appeal that college football has, and that's why some people love the college game so much. I totally get that. But the best skill will always be displayed in the NFL. That's just reality.

But at least IMO these kids try harder then the pros. That is why I Love college basketball and college football more then the NBA and NFL. Most of these kids will never make the pros but they still give there all. There is no tanking to get a better draft pick. IDK its just better, But don't get me Wrong I love the NBA and NFL as well. I I do see ur point with the talent level difference, and that will always put the NFL above the NCAAF for a lot of people

RE: Amateur Football Is Better Than Professional
College football is about state pride, tradition, student marching bands, school fight songs like Hail To The Victors. RV’s full of traveling fans ready to tailgate. Historic stadiums like the Big House and Rose Bowl, Cotton Bowl and Nile Kinnick Stadium. History goes back over a century. Old money.
NFL is gimmicky, where tax payers must fund billionaires too cheap to pay for their own stadiums. Loud speakers with “we will rock you” and “who let the dogs out” crap blasting over speakers. Cheesy corporate named stadiums. First Stupid Bowl was played in late 60’s. Not much tradition. New money.
