Better, of course, would be if there where more of them.

Most of everyone here diss about the sport of football because they know nothing about it and thought it's stupidly violent. I get a lot of harsh words from soccer and basketball fans. We don't even have any football related facilities also. It's as desperate as it can be. But we're still doing it and promoting it. Why? Because we love the game of football and we just can't let it go. It's my life and my passion. How long can we still do it? I don't know. But I am damn sure associations and organizations with money and power like the NFL and USAfootball needs to help us soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3887802820654018134.post-6454261023404187332011-02-23T16:24:00.193-06:002011-02-23T16:24:00.193-06:00It was great to read a post from a european coach ...It was great to read a post from a european coach about european circumstances.

First of all, thank you for writing this ...Julien,<br /><br />First of all, thank you for writing this article. So many fans, coaches and athletes here in the U.S. are not, or only vaguely, aware of the concept that Europeans play the sport. <br /><br />I've been to France twice to coach the USA Eagles against France's Senior National Team and, just two summers ago, against Dauphins de Nice. I can say, without questions, that both teams were very well coached and prepared and full of outstanding, and PHYSICAL, athletes.<br /><br />Some of those athletes had NFL/E experience. This is not limited just to France, but all the surrounding EU countries as well.<br /><br />These coaches devote a great deal of time to their efforts and teams and represent, in nearly all cases, true grass roots efforts.<br /><br />Congratulations<br /><br />Rudy Wyland<br />USA Eagles Football ClubRudy Wylandhttp://www.usaeagles.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3887802820654018134.post-57982737274042348452011-02-18T08:07:38.966-06:002011-02-18T08:07:38.966-06:00@Andy: I tweak Ted Seay's Wild Bunch.

As as American coach in Sweden I can second some of the hardships Julien mentions, as well as the passion he points out among those dedicated to the sport. There are certainly opportunities for great experiences by American coaches and players who want to spend time in Europe and help the sport grow.Ryan Bollandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08103501362318926617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3887802820654018134.post-49934972484022601912011-02-17T11:22:02.672-06:002011-02-17T11:22:02.672-06:00I know EXACTLY how you feel, i coach in the Nether...I know EXACTLY how you feel, i coach in the Netherlands and have a roster of just 30 guys.
