Yes, per capita and overall are two different stats. Very good. I was quoting total players. Thanks for the analysis.
Yes and a similar sized population, a little less than 5% larger, produces 4 times as many NFL players as Florida does. Why is Florida lagging behind so badly? If Florida was an actual producer of NFL talent 3 adjacent states and Louisiana would not, with 5% more people, produce 4 times the number of NFL players. Given the population Florida is 5th on the list….because they simply do not produce a lot of NFL talent compared to the rest of the south.

I know I have been banging the "Florida's population grew a ton" drum loudly, and it's true, but a lot of that growth was retired people or certain demographics from the northeast that aren't necessarily known for playing football. I'm sure you know that, but there is a big difference between those who travelled down I75 to Tampa/Fort Meyers and I95 from NY/Jersey to Miami.

They lead the country in NFL players so your post is beyond moronic. Which fits, due to you arguing about per capita and why Florida is not good at football right now when literally no one was talking about it. It has absolutely dick to do with what I or anyone else was posting about.
You created a debate that no one was posting about and are now arguing with yourself bc you’re clearly a bored moron who has nothing better to do. Neither thing has anything to do with what I said : which was being that Florida had a large population boom and got more players out of it in the 80s and currently have the most players in the NFL. Please go take a fricking lap, no one is interested in your moronic sentiment.
