  1. The officiating was pretty good. Good enough that the NFL hired 8 officials. Two things I really liked: 1) using a chip in the ball to determine placement. No more chain gang. 2) Review of all personal foul calls. They took back a few QB roughing calls in games.
  2. Well you see what happens anytime someone wants to do something about it.
  3. It's a fair take. Also these teams have little time to form a cohesive unit so the play calling might be a tad less complex. But there's no question a few players will wind up on NFL teams.
  4. It was a wild game, back and forth, both starting QBs knocked out. Stars would have won if not for losing theirs. A late BHM TD courtesy of former Bill Victor Boldin Jr. I really wanted it to go to OT so I could see the wacky USFL OT rules in progress.
  5. That's the USFL version of an onside kick. They also have a 3pt PAT; score a TD from 10 yards out.
  6. C'mon OT! Aye yi yi. Slight drop off in QB play for the Stars. What a tough break losing Cookus.
  7. Cookus got his bell rung. Got up smiling.
  8. I was a Stars fan back when, so go Stars.
  9. The Stars have appeared in every USFL title game, winning two.
  10. I'm surprised he wanted to keep playing.
  11. XFL is backed by ESPN/ABC. (Which explains why ESPN ignores the USFL.) The USFL Championship game is this Sunday at 7:30 on Fox. Fun fact: the Stars have appeared in every USFL Championship game, winning it twice.
  12. Fox and NBC commit to another season. https://www.inquirer.com/sports/usfl-returns-second-season-philadelphia-stars-20220627.html
  13. I just saw the Zappa Band Sunday. I saw them open for King Crimson last year, doing just 45 minutes, and wanted to see them so their full set. Outstanding musicians.
  14. The endless jangling must be a distraction.
  15. Lol no. But are you fine with having no price certainty when you're trying to get back from a Miami game?
  16. One good reason is you never know how much they will gouge you. I was in Philly recently, took an Uber ride about a mile for $9 on a Wednesday. Same ride cost $26 the following day.
  17. I think this all just speaking well of Anderson. I'm certain he's retiring and the Sabres will be signing or trading for a new goalie(s).
  18. Great semifinal. PHL upsets NJ. https://www.theusfl.com/the-usfl/usfl-playoffs-philadelphia-stars-new-jersey-generals-top-plays
