Promoting the competition four years ahead of time should tell you how serious the league is about taking home the gold especially if you consider the current NFL and NCAA football players who will be in their prime when 2028 arrives.
The flag football medals should be Team USA’s for the taking, but if Jamaica gets involved there could be trouble ahead.
