  1. USFL & XFL should consolidate thier leagues and the NFL would ? have a farm system or w/e in the spring and the league could be successful. Truth is thier is enough talent out there to form another football league. Especially if the NFL keeps casting 27 year olds and not giving 2nd contracts

  2. Omfg… MIKE FLORIO S T F U…… pro wrestling didn't used to be called "studio wrestling" u fkn JACKASS… that was a specific fkn show in PITTSBURGH

  3. I like what I’m seeing and I Love the name USFL ??

    I’m definitely in .

    Just got done watching NJ Vs BAM and Phi Vs NoLa Extended Full Game Highlights
    and I Like it a lot. I’m in. I can dig it.
    They definitely need to get a couple real stars and there’s a couple to a few with potential
    Including NoLa QB , He’s got Star potential ?

    Surprised Owens is in The Fan League instead. USFL is better .

  4. Yes they can be a success, but they will have to overcome the huge error they made in playing all games in Birmingham, the money they saved in travel costs will pale in comparison to lost ticket revenue, people in Birmingham do not care about going to a game unless Birmingham is playing, simple logic that seems to have escaped them. The empty stadiums is a real bad look for the league. It is sad for the fans because the old USFL still has fans that loved those teams, I went as a kid to the Breakers games in Portland and people were packing the stadium, people still remember several of the more successful teams and their players fondly, the league was packed with tremendous talent like Herschel Walker, Doug Flutie, Bobby Hebert, Mike Rozier, Marcus Dupree, Anthony Carter, Jim Kelly, Steve Young etc and brought the Run and Shoot offense to popularity, it was loads of fun and would have never folded if they had stuck to a Spring schedule.

  5. I dont believe that I hope it will get more athletes that want to play in NFL a chance to play at a smaller level like minor leagues in baseball some will show up well and get a chance to ply in NFL

  6. I think they need to rival college football you know every year in high-school a lot of kids are kicked of teams because they didn't make the grades so those schools might be taking away a kid's only way of becoming successful because it's the one thing they are good enough at to make to build on maybe it's time to give those kids and out is college won't accept them because of grades and they don't have the stats get scholarships because poor people can't afford College London kids are good kids they deserve a shot but because they ain't good students they get thrown away like garbage

  7. Maybe the USFL should play in a Park type setting with some trees and nature in the background . People could picnic and watch the game – you see it in some minor league baseball games in the outfield. They can’t play in an empty fishbowl. It looks like Failure.

  8. not a chance. and the old USFL was real top flight football. nowhere other than birmingham will there be any enthusiasm for a league where all games are played in birmingham

  9. If the USFL can bring the action the AAF displayed. It will make it for me because the on the field play of the AAF in it's 1st year was better then the NFL to me.

  10. I liked all the games, but yes the stands were empty, at the rate I saw they're at the point where the only thing I could tell them to do is to let the people come to the games for free. Food stands look better than empty ones and nobody bought the tickets anyway so yeah let the people in for free

  11. I watched, I noticed there weren’t fans, and didn’t care at all. Idk what these guys are talking about. Oh yeah I really thought to myself “I want to watch some football tonight but if there aren’t any fans in the stands watching I’m out.”

    People watch the NFL with no fans in the stands, that’s not why people are watching.

    That’ll come with time, be patient.

  12. You want to give the USFL a shot in the arm? Get Kaepernick to sign. Half would tune in to see him fail, half would tune in to see him fight his way back to the NFL. There's your momentum building move. Anything short of that is not going to wake up the spring-time fan base. CONTROVERSY is what makes or breaks ventures today. Now, if we can just get Urban Meyer to coach the team. I know, one dream at a time.
