It was just reported on a Canadian sports network.

I'll try to find a link.

Personally, I think it's a stupid BS rumor; I mean back-to-back 7 hour flights.

I guess they couldn't get the stadiums built on time in Texas and Kentucky.

it has to be a rumor, pretty ridiculous idea even though superficially it sounds great. i cant imagine an american born college kid be happy about being forced to move to france (could be due to family, friends, etc) and being forced to apply for citizenship there. all the european players would obviously favor to play there.

the traveling is a huge factor also.

It's not so outlandish - as long as one or two other franchises in Europe begin operating at the same time.
