Huh, I've always thought the opposite about the two....


I always thought CFB was more corrupt because it wasn't above board, money-wise, and everyone knew it. Some got punished for it. Been that way since leather helmets. That's corruption.

The NFL is, and always was, about capitalism and, for the most part, merit based. The American way! I thought.

I could debate you about the politics of athletes and if you watch movies (political actors) and if you know who the owner of your favorite restaurant donates to (is it just about exposure and a public platform?) yada yada... But that would likely go nowhere. So, if you have left the NFL for that reason, I know you aren't alone and aint freedom to choose a wonderful thing...

But, corruption?, I don't think the NFL is more corrupted with money than CFB, I think money is the point of the NFL's existence, like Time-Warner, Apple or McDonalds. Sounds like America to me.
