KD in CA Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 It been a while since I saw it, but the 30 for 30 on the USFL was pretty good. Especially for those who are fans of or get triggered by our current POTUS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie's Dead Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 The NFL was found to be a predatory monopoly. And the brain-dead jury awarded $1 in treble damages. Unreal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all it folded over 30 years ago, plus, some of those teams jumped to different cities, re-maned themselves, or just plane folded after a year or 2.

New Orleans started in Boston and there was also Oklahoma Outlaws at one point. Arizona Wranglers too. Damn these memory banks are getting hard to access.

I haven't looked it up, but cba, I think you got it. Two of the more solid clubs were the TB Bandits and NJ Generals. Pretty much all the rest were just financially just winging it. Not that I wanted the league to succeed (more on this later) but they decided to expand the league to other cities after the first season. That was too much for a lot of those teams. By the end of only the 2nd season, they were close to folding. I wanted the league to fold because then the Bills could get Kelly. That was really my overriding interest in the league. Just sign Kelly when the league is done! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't get past NJ Generals, the Express, and of course the Houston Gamblers (JK did always look good in their black unis) without looking it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a picture of the check, it was never cashed. The extra .76 was interest due to the time for litigation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
