I think having the league's season run in the fall is a big mistake. Have it in the spring, when NFL fans are thirsting for anything with a pointy-ended ball. Trying to have a new league go directly against the NFL is business suicide. I don't care if their games happen on the "off" days for the NFL; we wait, like junkies, for training camp and preseason and then the real games to start, and I doubt most of us will turn our attention even fleetingly to a "fake NFL" at the same time. Move it to February-through-July and you've got a deal.
