From Trading Spaces to Extreme Makeover, reality television has turned its focus to giving the world a "facelift". Not to be outdone, the NFL has made some changes of its own.

As many of our readers may have noticed, Rostrum has experienced some cosmetic and feature changes. A new table of contents page, a coach profile, and the NDCA coaches' corner are among some of the new and exciting additions.

This month in Rostrum, we are proud to debut the new look and function of the NFL website (www.nflonline.org). With the help of our new friends at Thunder Data Systems and support from The Schwan Food Company, the John C. Stennis Center, ConocoPhillips, and Lincoln Financial Group, the NFL is able to provide new and improved online services to our members. We hope that the enhanced site will meet the needs of our membership. The new interactive bulletin boards and online polling allows our membership to voice concerns and opinions about NFL issues. The student and coach resource sections provide hundreds of free educational resources for students and teachers. Individual District websites promote stronger communication between local chapters and affiliates within the same region. A new and improved "online Rostrum" allows coaches and students to search for educational articles by topic area. Also, the new "National Tournament" section provides historical accounts and a photo gallery of past tournaments as well as the most current tournament information.

Please feel free to visit the site and give us your feedback. Our goal is to make the NFL site as user friendly as possible while providing the key features that all students and coaches need.
