It's from a French Children's song I learned in good ole Beaumont (Beautiful mountain), Texas that was more cajun than Texan.

Dang French- I had always wondered what the heck that song was about, hearing it dozens of times as a kid. I can navigate around a Bordeaux bottle when I see it printed, Mis en bouteilles a chateau. But when you start slurring stuff in a song forget it.
Nero knows my Spanish is much better, but still mostly only when I see it printed. Can hack my way through a newspaper.

He's toned down a lot of things these past couple of years. Plus he's married now and has a "gatekeeper".

He'll have to wreck the CFL before he gets a shot at wrecking the NFL. I don't like his odds.

Then there is the Arena League...but that thing has almost all but folded up shop. There are only 4 teams left in that system:

Not sure why they bother at this point.

Wow I didn't realize that the former (about) 16 team league in 2003 was so bad off.....and further the decline of American football at all levels, I quit watching it years back. Had a PA buddy follow the Pittsburgh Gladiators in their one season around 1986.
And the new IFL.....The Indoor Football League (IFL) is a professional indoor American footballleague created in 2008 out of the merger between the Intense Football League and United Indoor Football. The league is the second highest tier in indoor/arena football behind the Arena Football League (AFL).[citation needed] IFL players earn a minimum of US$250 per game played (before taxes). The season is typically about 14 games long, plus playoffs of two or more rounds......
T.O. was involved in that? Six or so teams? Never followed it at all.

Does it still exist?

further the decline of American football at all levels,
I think this is a way off base statement by you. Just because people don't want to watch bastardized football does not mean football is declining. Quite the opposite. It seems that two new football leagues are cropping up:
The Alliance of American Football....starting Feb 9, 2019. 8 teams in southern cities. (too pussy to play in the north in winter) Lots of big names associated with it. Polian and others. Games to be shown on CBS. Cities include Phoenix, San Diego, San Antonio, Salt Lake, Birmingham, Atlanta, Orlando, Memphis. (only 2 current NFL cities)
And there is the potential for the nex XFL in 2020. Owned as you know by Vince McMahon.....but Oliver Luck...Andrew Luck's Dad, from Cleveland, has been named its new Commish.

Off base? Check out this screenshot on is American football decreasing in popularity. Check the sources too.....
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -
Pee-wee, high school, college, professional it's dropping across the board including the super bowl.
......oh edit add, what do you think is going to happen to the life blood of any sport money if these trends continue over time?
We boomers, like me, we're born and raised and lived American football I'm not so sure about the current under 40 crop.

Yes off-base completely off-base. If you were not off base you wouldn't have two new league is starting up.

When either of the leagues are in existence in five years, come back to this.
Football leagues start up all the time. Virtually none of them last.

I expect the AAF to hang around. They have a TV contract with CBS. (and to be honest with you....I think they may in fact have the blessings of the NFL....as I think they believe that it may serve as somewhat of a minor league/feeder league for them) The new XFL, however, I give little chance of actually getting off the ground.

I'm talking football in the USA, all of it not some small obscure part of it which is getting canabalized by other small insignificant indoor leagues.
If the AFL which was somewhat popular in the 2000s died this probably will too before too long.
Off base? No.
