They could have just said we're going to start scouting "Global" players by looking far & wide and promoting football and maybe the CFL a bit - with scouting going on in other countries where they play gridiron football. But almost all the "Globals" who are looked at are just American college trained guys who happen to come from other countries.

Ambrosia is a clown of a Commish - this and other garbage has happened under his watch - he needs to get lost IMO.
If the Global initiative was truly something to expand the game to "true" Global players (say trained and playing in leagues in the country they come from) then I can accept that. But the majority of these global players are coming from the NCAA. To me, that defeats the purpose of this whole initiative.
