I disagree because the information I have comes from another source and in my opinion a very knowledgably source. And it also came from a person I know personally and how they were given an opportunity. This person has spoken many times about his rise to the NFL as well as 2 other individuals.

And in the bigger picture, it really does not matter because NFL Europe is no longer. So what they used to do is not even relevant anymore. Arena ball is not 7 man mechanics with the similar rules or judgments. I doubt Arena ball (which is owned by the NFL) is going to rely on that game as a prerequisite before you get a job in the NFL. The NFL uses the Arena Leagues as a testing ground in many ways, but I doubt it will have as much wait as the MLB system to hire umpires.

Peace
