Golden Nuggets: And We Are Underway

by James Brady on May 20, 2011 2:00 AM PDT in 49ers Links

Don't forget to vote in the first elimination matchups for the Niners Nation Tournament of Badness - there will be four more matches at 2:00 p.m. today for you to vote on (there are 12 spots up for grabs overall in the elimination round). We've decided that the bracket will for-sure be up on Monday and the tournament officially starts on Tuesday, so get to voting in this elimination round. As it stands for day one, we have two blowouts and two really close races. As far as tangible 49ers links goes, I've got to make it quick today folks, so just links. Enjoy.

In that Glen Coffee article, it says he is playing semi-pro football in Florida. What IS semi-pro football? I know what semi-professional means, obviously, as a contractual term, but what form does that level of football take? Are there leagues and stuff? Is it organised by state? I ask because although we have a very established system of semi-pro football leagues in English soccer, my understanding was always that no such equivalent existed for American football.

There's many different level's of semi-pro football ...

…. as there are lot’s of league’s through the country , but for the most part your not actually paid to play the game , but most exspence’s are covered , such as equipment , ref fee’s , field rental and some travel … but in general , it’s a bunch of ex high school or college player’s trying to re live their glory day’s …!!
