...and they are eyeing Sac. Proposals include having the team play at Hornet Stadium (Sac State, which previously hosted CFL and WLAF teams) and Hughes Stadium (Sac City College, currently under reconstruction).

Yeah, unless the NFL supplements it.Ivytalk wrote:I give it two years. To Chapter 7.
The original USFL was a great product. Good football with some of the best players available. It competed with the NFL for for top notch talent.
And it still failed. Nobody will get excited about a new minor league. This league will fail too.

Re: The USFL is coming back...
It failed because of the interference of one guy: The Donald. Idiot conned the league into going head-to-head with the NFL in the fall and try that antitrust suit that never had a chance. Oh, they won, all right, but got a whopping $1 (trebled to $3 under antitrust laws), which killed the league on the spot. If they'd left well enough alone and kept to the spring schedule, they'd have been fine.BlueHen86 wrote:Yeah, unless the NFL supplements it.Ivytalk wrote:I give it two years. To Chapter 7.
