I've been waiting for this all week. Hopefully they didn't give all the good stuff away in the trailer.

yeah.. horrible way to start a season.. how do you build any sort of hype if one team is way more baller?

The flags are displayed on their helmets correctly. I'm impressed already!

I know, and it was hard to tell which team was which because of the matching greenish blue.

Aside from the ugly uniforms I thought that the quality of play was suprisingly good. Not quite as good as the NFL, but way better than NFL Europe and definately more professional looking than college.

It's worth the watch if you've got the itch.

Re: UFL Season Opener Tonight

Not that I am aware of.

It was interesting how the league attempted to portray themselves. They def went in a non-XFL approach. They were candid about the NFL and their role, unlike previous competition. The UFL commissioner was the first to say that they hoped to be a league from which players could go to the NFL.

Also they did not attempt to distinguish the league from the NFL in any other ways, rules etc. Only thing they said is that the UFL takes the fan further into the game. Basically more interviews with players and coaches RIGHT after they score, etc.


They had 15k last night, so not too bad. It look really empty early, but I am guessing as more people trickled in from work and dinner. It looked pretty decent late.

Oh, and Denzel Washington had to show his credentials to a security guard. That was the laugh of the night.
