If so I tend to disagree. I have not seen your DVD yet, but I have watched clips. Now get ready, I am in no way blasting your style of play, but I think the Shootout style moves a lot faster and keeps the energy level up. Which is what will get our viewers pumped up. As they will see this fast paced, custom style and remember the slow moving scrum they played as kids and be totally amazed.

If it's more of an instructional show, where all different playing styles are visited you will hit a homerun with some viewers based on the true NFL simulation style of play. But if it's a competition style contest type of show, the Shootout rules would make better TV.

I say this with all due respect and am in no way saying anything bad about your rule set. I just think a fast paced style of play would do better for television. I am keeping things on the positive tip here.

Please forgive my bluntness, but I am man enough to say what is on my mind with out having to imply anything, or assume anything.

I didn't post anything about my system ! Please show me in my post were I said anything about my system ?

You can't because there is not anthing there ! And you totaly missed the point of the post !

It is about how the public see's this hobby ! Not what we think ! It is about the reality of the facts, not what we like !

FYI
1: My system is a procedure guide, not a rule set !
2: The rules are football rules !
3 : The Term ( Multi Stop ) is an insult when the correct name is MPFL, THEY ARE NOT THE SAME !!!!!Some call it that name because they can't see past the board stoppages and miss the hole theory behind the system !
( This is the only part that I am now talking about my system, FYI-1-3 and ends now !)

Now I'm am not upset, I just want to make it clear.

You are making this about rules, I am talking about how this hobby is viewed by those that are not in it ! As it relates to you wanting to know about air time for this hobby.

The public doesn't care about setting up 11 men on a board that is to small to hold them, to watch figures run around aimlessly, some fall over, not knowing how to control them, then the time it takes to throw a pass.

Then you want them to believe that this is a football game ! You want them to believe that this plays like real football !

And you ask about air time for this hobby on TV ? Who wants to see men fall over, run out of position etc.

So what is being done to change the public view of this hobby ?
