In "football" for each team, do the players have to be from that region? Or can any team sign any player from any region.

if it's where they have to be from the region they play for then thats awesome.. it's sort of like high school sports all over again.. real rivalries..

in american football and any american sport, it's just money and just becuase you're the Dallas Cowboys doesn't have anything to do with you being FROM dallas. So there are still division rivalries and what not but it's really the fans who are rivals as opposed to the players..

The best rivalry in sports, Red Sox/Yankees, is great, and i'm proud to be from new england/the boston area, to be a part of the rivalry, but as i said it's fans that make the rivalries.. the players get along just fine for the most part, and have plenty of respect for each other.
