I don't think the new USFL will last and I don't think the XFL (planning to return in 2023) will last either. I hope they do because they provide jobs, but I doubt it.

Good to see them bringing back some ofthe old team names at least. That said, without getting star players like the first one did they will hurt. They put some big name players like Steve Young, Reggie White, and Jim Kelly into the NFL Hall of Fame.

The Birmingham Stallions need to have a logo more similar to their predecessor's 1983-1985 logo. All of the other teams have logos that are reasonably similar to the 1980s USFL logos or are variations of those logos.

XFL 2.0 probably had a better chance of success compared to other "spring leagues" but the pandemic kinda killed that league more than anything else.

If nothing else, given the proposed "bubble" scheme that the USFL is adopting for the 2022 season (the rumors I had been hearing was that the league would play all their games this season in Birmingham), it at least gives FOX some programming during the offseason and the single site plan gives it a chance to get a second season out of it.

I think they keep missing on the team placement. Omaha man, c'mon.
