You have to remember that Arena Football is a totally different game
than NFL football.  It is much more different than Canadian Football.
They may play with the same ball and on a field with stripes.  They may
score touchdowns and field goals but the way the game is played is
different.  Because of the smaller playing field plays develop much more
quickly.  Pinpoint passing, open field running and sheer speed are more
important.  Brute power and smashmouth football are less important.
