Inter league games

As the commissioner, I get to visit preseason games on occasion, and I visited an inter league game this weekend between The DFW Xpress (NMLF) and The Dallas Bengals (TUFL) on Saturday. Excellent football game, with good players on both sides. This was the 4th game for the Bengals and the 1ST game for the Xpress. The game ended in a 20-14 win for the Bengals, and after being tied at 14 in the first half, Xpress coach Truman Vernon pulled most of his 1st teamers for the 2nd half. Reports surfaced of the Bengals "loading up" for this game, i.e. recruiting players just for this game, and even one report of a player being paid just to play in this game. In some leagues, this is a common practice. The NMLF strives to avoid this type of behavior, as we believe a TRUE champion does not add players for one game, but instead builds a good roster, capable of winning a title the right way. This is one of the reasons that a game between the NMLF champion and another league's champion just wouldn't work, as the leagues play under different rules. There will always be teams that load up and add players anytime from any team they want, and there will be leagues that allow them to do it, just not National Minor League Football.
