I would too.  The problem Foley has is that we have to find good teams that
will not want a home-and-home.  Good teams will demand that.  Major teams
need the six home games for revenue.  Only teams that do not have a great
revenue source from home games can afford to play away games without a
return home game.  That being said, I wonder why Miami doesn't play us here
every year.  They don't do that well with their home games, do they?

I'd be much more interested in playing two-game home and home series with
different well-respected teams that we rarely would play otherwise. Although
I understand the reasons for the two warm-up games every year, as a fan of
the sport, I'd rather see good games.
