asians playing football

A story from a few weeks back on the Boston Asian Football League, started by some dudes who wanted to get together, play some football, and give back to the community: Touch Down. Here's the league's website: BAFL--The Baddest Asian Football League in this Galaxy!

Speaking of Asians playing football... the NFL is training Gao Wei, Ding Long and Shen Yalei to become the first Chinese to play pro football in America. According to this little news bite, the three are hard at work learning how to kick a football, with the possibility of playing this summer in the NFL's first exhibition game in China. All this, so the NFL can potentially tap the crazy profitable Chinese market. Can these guys make it in the NFL? It's not like baseball, which already has a global presence.
