| ufl...why if you are reading this then you are probably a football fan. i consider myself a pretty big football fanatic, but what is up w the ufl? seriously whats the point? unless they play in the spring i think it will die off like all others have. someone brought it up in a thread earlier and i was just curious if anyone even cared about the ufl i included an article and a video, apperently they lost over 30 million in the first year, watch the video and you can see why, i have seen high school games with more people there UFL loses $30 million in opening year | ProFootballTalk.com

| Re: ufl...why Well I think they're gradually adding more team. If they set it up right, and I know the UFL and the NFL are talking, it could potentially set up as a sort of minor league system for the NFL

| Re: ufl...why It's not an easy thing to launch a new league. It's going to take time. |

| Re: ufl...why Different people try this every few years...I remember the XFL, the WFL trying to get going...UFL, etc... People actually can get too much of football. I would probably love to have it year round, but after a while, i'd watch something else. There isnt a substitute for the NFL....nor is there a competitor. Nothing is ever going to be a serious competitor or threat to the NFL...and there never will be, i don't think.

| Re: ufl...why If the NFL links up with them as SS says it could work as a minor league system. Otherwise it's a long shot at best. |

On a different note, I feel that if they really want to be "where the future stars come to play" why are Tatum Bell, Quinn Gray, JP Losman and a host of other NFL wash outs the best players in that league?

| Re: ufl...why Because we have a cap, we cant do relegation with a minor league, but that would be an idea if we go uncapped for a long time. It works well overseas.

| Re: ufl...why What about the Arena League? Are they back in business net year? I would love for them to merge with the NFL and have the team wear there unis. Maybe there could be a decent Redskins team.

| Re: ufl...why I just hope the UFL teams get a better mix of uniform colors in the future. The games look like inter-squad scrimmages.

| Re: ufl...why UFL has a chance to become the new NFL Europe, possibly with a better fan base. Who knows if it will work out though. I watched two of the first games and was honestly impressed; it moved more fluidly and there was more of an even level of play across the whole team, which is a big gripe that I have against college football. |
