Isn't flag football already approved? I'm fine with it, but I also like 3 on 3 Olympic basketball.
I think the NFL is treating flag football as something like a gateway drug. I've noticed they're pushing it especially hard for high school girls. It seems savvy to me, because they need to reverse the trend of anti-football moms.
Yes, it looks like it was approved a few weeks ago. Thought it was still under submission, my mistake.
NFL gearing up to launch WNFFL.

I had no idea when it got approved, but they were talking about it during one of the NFL games this season.
I think the NFL is much smarter than the NBA and know that no one wants to see women play flag football. They just want the next generation of boys to have moms who like football.

I know in Canada we have had a big drop off of kids playing hockey. A few reasons, one is potential injury, two is cost and thirdly is kids hockey had gotten really toxic with parents screaming at their kids from the stands and fights breaking out and parents going after refs after the game. It had gotten crazy.

My brother was a very good hockey player and that was children's hockey culture back in the 80's too.
