Yep March 30 Saturday 7pm MLB puts Fox/UFL where on opening w/e?

And the next Fox Saturday MLB game is May 4th

And here's ESPN SNB schedule

I updated my first post to have it as a lead-in, in line with what they were talking about last year with USFL as lead-in and lead-out programming.

I don;t know why they would not have a home game in St. Louis on the opening week. Show that packed dome. Needs to be done.

No game in St Louis week 1 again sucks. I imagine the league wouldve wanted it but the Dome authorities weren't waiting around for the UFL to get finished merging. I really hope that next year they can finally put their best market on display in the opening weekend. Opening day hype would be insane in St Louis.

For the same reasons I hope they have DC hosting week 1. And since we already know the opener is in Arlington I guess I'd pick Memphis to be the final host since I think they'd have a better crowd than Michigan (I think Memphis is the best USFL market personally). And just hope the Panthers look at least competitive in their first game so they can draw some better crowds in Detroit.

DC would need to be Sunday or possibly Monday night, with the United hosting on Sat

All righty then. Too bad for the UFL.
