After hearing what the UFL did for high school football this year, I will be at that game. Thanks for letting the kids play last week.
Locomotives? Appropriate name choice. The league will end up a train wreck. Over/under is a season and a half.. I'm taking the under.
Lenny, have some faith. The UFL will have at least two full seasons. This season is just six games and I think curiosity alone will draw people to games. The real test of sustainability will come in the third season.
