UFL Football
Tonight the new league debuts on Versus with California at Las Vegas. Anybody going to be watching? Curious to see if this league can make it. Not much hype on this league...the XFL had huge hype went in strong but still folded after 1 season.
However, the football may be better in this league....quite a few players with NFL experience.

Re: UFL Football
I played in the UFL......Completely different league but got big eyed over the thread title.
I've heard very little about this new league, I'll have to investigate further.

Re: UFL Football
Watching it now and dammmmmmm are those some butt ugly uniforms.
Right off the bat, both teams in light jerseys makes it a total cluster fuck visually. Denis Green and Jim Fossil coaching...OK...So far the game play seems decent, some good hitting....OOPS...Dude just dropped a pass.....
Pick your favorite team now!
California Redwoods
Florida Tuskers
Las Vegas Locomotives
New York Sentinels
I picked the New York Sentinels! They have the least gay name/uni's and also Koren "injury plagued" Robinson is on the squad.
Doug Flutie in the booth and Kordell Stewart on the sideline calling the shots...Whatever.
Now the skinny. WTF are you doing running a start up league with 4 fucking teams during football season? On top of starting it smack dab on the baseball playoffs your competing with the NFL and College?
If you're desperate because both your NFL and College teams suck and you hate baseball AND hockey.......And you have a lot of pot to smoke to enhance jersey tracers, this league is for you.
Fail.
PS, it's on the VS channel.

Re: UFL Football
Locker room cam during half time! It's like reality TV! Nothing like watching a camera being shoved in the coaches face as he barks then bouncing around to catch a lot of dick adjusting and spandex ass pulling. FUCKING SUPER.

We could make it a 4 person league, everyone gets 1 QB, Kicker and defense each.

Re: UFL Football
The jerseys are crazy, hard to tell them apart really during play with both having blue on their pants/socks and the while/silver tops are hard to tell as well from farther away.
Kordell was not very good on the sidelines. I like how they say bringing you inside the locker room at halftime and interview right after a TD...this has never been done before....I guess everyone is trying to act like the XFL never exsisted, since they did those things first.

Re: UFL Football
I just don't get why the XFL didn't make it. I mean alot of the games had 20,000-30,000 fans. There were some nice crowds....which is the same as the CFL gets.
I am going to keep watching this league anyway, I am a sucker for the underdog leagues.

Re: UFL Football
A lot of it had to do with NBC getting dismal ratings and not being willing to support future seasons. A breaking point came when a game went into an overtime that lasted until 11:40 east coast time, which was over an hour after what the network thought would be the latest a game would run. That delayed Saturday Night Live 40 minutes (after local newscasts) until after midnight when J-Lo was hosting and they expected big numbers.znuff_fan wrote:I just don't get why the XFL didn't make it.

Re: UFL Football
It would have been interesting to see it make at least 3 years, NBC got cold feet and pulled out, it would have ran Vince McMahon thin to keep it going.Garbageman wrote:A lot of it had to do with NBC getting dismal ratings and not being willing to support future seasons.

The XFL had a lot of things going for it, if there ever was a start up league that was going to be successful the XFL was it.
I never had a chance in hell but filled out their online player application anyway.
One of the best football games I ever watched was an XFL game played in Chicago, fucking monsoon down poor mud bowl. Players was limping off the field every other play...Doubt there was 6 first downs the entire game. Just an ugly smash mouth football game.
Still got a NY/NJ Hitman shirt....Fuck I'd pay good money just to find another.

I bought several NY/NJ shirts at discount after the XFL folded but my late GF at the time stole them...She was from Jersey and thought they looked better on her.
Been thinking about having mine duplicated.

Re: UFL Football
I agree I loved the XFL and wish it kept on going...i loved how Jesse Ventura was one of the analysts and he would make fun of people, lol...i remember him once calling NFL quarterbacks "Jabronees", lol
and who could forget He hate me...i loved how you could pick what name to put on the back of your jersey...the XFL kinda had a Sludgy persona to it, lol

Re: UFL Football
Also, I don't know about anybody else...but the XFL, I loved the "scramble for the ball" at the beginning of the game instead of a coin toss. Make the teams work for it. I remember 1 player getting hurt, broken collarbone or something due to the "scramble" but like any play in football, it is a chance you take...you can get hurt on any play. Oh...and no hate for the cheerleaders either, another positive for the XFL.
Re: UFL Football
The first play in the history of the XFL a dude broke his leg or something on that scramble. No fair catches on punts either.znuff_fan wrote:Also, I don't know about anybody else...but the XFL, I loved the "scramble for the ball" at the beginning of the game instead of a coin toss.

The chicks were hot, hell I dug the black ball.
This UFL shit is going to fold fast, think they said it was a 30 million start up league. Of all the shit to throw away money on. They should have given me a couple mill and not even tried. They're gonna lose their ass.

Re: UFL Football
New York at Florida tonight on HDNet. Does anybody even get that network? Guess I won't be watching this one.
Yeah, the black XFL ball...actually have it sitting on my computer desk. I have some Las Vegas Outlaws shit, since they were the team I chose, even though I should have been a fan on the Enforcers since I am closer to Chicago than Vegas. Hell for the whole year after the XFL folded...I thought it was another wrestling type work by Vince. I was assured he was going to pop up and say "and you thought we were done....here we are....cant kill us off that easily." But, that day never came. Damn NBC. I do remember Spike was happy with the ratings the XFL brought in.

Re: UFL Football
Can't blame NBC for killing it. No one watched it. The last 2 weeks had the worst ratings NBC ever had for any show. It needed to be on cable.znuff_fan wrote:New York at Florida tonight on HDNet. Does anybody even get that network? Guess I won't be watching this one.

Re: UFL Football
I still have a Las Vegas Outlaws tee stashed away in my closet somewhere. The XFL was fun too watch on Saturday and Sunday nights until the networks started giving them the shaft.

Re: UFL Football
But it came outta the gate with killer ratings, it was popular, everyone heard about the XFL and giving it only one season was unfair. If it had a couple years to mature it would have done something.johnk5150 wrote:Can't blame NBC for killing it. No one watched it. The last 2 weeks had the worst ratings NBC ever had for any show.

The biggest smack was the sloppy play, that would have improved with a second or third season.
It didn't get a fair shot and I personally think the NFL was nervous.

Re: UFL Football
There are 2 games every week. One is on Versus and the other is on HDNet. Through my cable it is a pay channel and really have no interest in giving those crooked money hungry bastards (the cable company) any more money than what they already soak.
Re: UFL Football
Ok, if anybody was interested in seeing any of this. I did see that the games are actually posted online under video on demand in the schedule section.

Re: UFL Football
I read somewhere that on Versus network the UFL has higher ratings than the NHL.
If that's true, damn shame for the NHL.

Re: UFL Football
Tonight on Vs the Florida Tuskers head to Sam Boyd Stadium to face the Las Vegas Locomotives. They keep talking like this is a preview to the championship game. WTF...I hate when league/media does that shit. As per California's coach Denny Green said in Arizona "if your gonna crown them then crown them....they are who we thought they were."
Still giving this one a chance. I chose the Redwoods for my team to cheer for, but according to the media I might as well stop watching now.
