Football should be like the Olympics. I really don't need to know who is the best Quarter Of The Way Back year-to-year. Every four years is fine.

I'll have you know it's only been relatively recent that I learned the Super Bowl was every year. I could have sworn it was every 4 like the Olympics or the World Cup

I think they should have mini olympics every year. Events that are more local athletes compete with local athletes to see who qualifies for their country at the main olympics in 4 years.

And professional athletes would ABSOLUTELY qualify! The olympics is supposed to be the best of the best. Why WOULDN'T you want the 1992 dream team representing your country in basketball if you have it available??? Suck it other countries! America knows how to play with our balls!!!......wait.......
