The Official 2024 UFL Offseason Discussion Thread

considering how much Dwayne always has this immense gratitude for all opportunities hes had, i can very much see this working

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

I think it would be interesting to see how it would work since CFL is a 3-Down League and XFL is a 4-Down League.

Both could possibly run similar rule-sets and have the Rouge incorporated into the XFL. Interesting times.

Yea I think CFL got funding for next year so this makes sense

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

Damn, we'll have to wait an extra year for XFL again, but I'm willing to wait it out.

When USFL was connected to the NFL I knew XFL would be in a tough position.

It's that time again, with the USFL starting up very soon this April, it's fitting we create a new thread for the revived league. Which team are you planning on rooting for, or which one is closest to you? From what I notice, the league currently has a very Eastern US-centric taste to it, the furthest Western team being Houston.

From what is currently understood, all games in the USFL will currently be held in Birmingham, Alabama as a host city, with the venue being the Birmingham-Jefferson Civic Center's own Protective Stadium, a state of the art football stadium which opened in October of 2021. Its maximum capacity will be as high as 47k. While it is unlikely that the USFL will reach that level of attendance, it is far more likely that an average attendance of 19k is possible for the upstart league, especially in a location such as Birmingham.

Give your thoughts and let's all hope this league is a big success because god forbid, we need more football leagues.​

I'm betting on the Gamblers

No teams in Georgia.

i refuse to cheer for a team from New Orleans. Really ain’t wanting to pull for a Florida based team either. Tho Bandits a cool name. Probably go the route I did with XFL and wait to see coaches and everything. Hmmm but more football yay
