According to this article, there are 30 players in the NFL and another 200 playing d-1 football who are from Samoa

Which is impressive, right?

Did you know the population of Samoa is only about 195k? (not sure where the 65k figure is from)

I can tell you there are NOT 30 players from the NFL and another 200 playing college ball from the Madison area.

It wouldn't be a surprise to anyone who has lived in Hawaii and encountered
multitudinous Samoans. They are some big boys.
