Yes, the legal department is so boring. I can attest to that just seeing my fellow former co-workers' faces. The best departments are Special Events and Entertainment Programming. Please note that if you take a special events job at a league or association, you will be working constantly.
I found Entertainment Programming to be more fun b/c they interacted with the players' charities, chose the talent for ProBowl and Superbowl, NFL Under the Helmet, and all those NFL specials like NFL Quarterback Challenge. (Then again, after the Janet fiasco, I'm sure the girl who used to make those decisions doesn't make them solely as much anymore. I bet Tagliabue wants a final say now.) Programming is fun, but very territorial.
