I watched one of the USFL games last night and turned it off after about 10 minutes.

There are too many other things to actually enjoy on television. 'Twas totally boring.

Actually there are very few things to enjoy on TV - that is why I flip to a game occasionally only to flip again in a minute or two!

Yeah -- I respect your preference. I've got a lot of movie channels to pick from. Being a movie buff, it was an easy choice. ;)

The USFL has failed at least twice. They keep trying to make these leagues work but I don’t see it happening over the long haul.
It really can't succeed. Too much going against it, especially NFLPA won't support it. What college player would take the risk of getting hurt?
It looks like arena FB.

I just tuned to one of the reruns from this past week Pit and Philly and hardly saw any fans in the stands. I only glanced at the game and the score was 23-21. No way is the USFL going to survive without fans at the games. If they’re not attending the games they’re probably not watching them on TV either.

Arena football lasted from 1987 until 2019. Only the NFL and CFL lasted longer. It was different and found an audience. The USFL can’t find an audience. None of these other Pro leagues that keep forming that are playing traditional football can find an audience. Tuned into one of the USFL games and the stadium was practically empty.

I briefly watched a couple of drives in a Stallion's recent game. Not ready for prime time is how I would describe it.

The fact that the USFL has only 1 team playing home games might have something to do with that.

Something is really messed up with that league if they only have one team playing home games. Won’t be long before the league folds again.

The idea is to save on travel expenses by playing all the games in one place for the first year and then have everyone start playing home games in year two, but I would imagine that they we're hoping for better attendance for the non-Stallions games.
