I like UFL better than NSFL.

Though I like United Spring Football League better than UFL and I think it really comprises what the USFL and XFL are doing. Plus its not new initials.

Yeah I somehow missed all those team scrimmages this year. :mrgreen:

But I wonder why they don't just go ahead and change the name to the Memorial League since 75% of the league (supposedly) plays in ____ Memorial Stadium.

And somehow Joe McClendon was able to use it for his scam.

I think Vince did that because he wanted to restart a league but he thought XFL still had a taint to it. In the end he went with XFL after Charlie Ebersol showed an interest.

Fun times!

I like XFL because the “X” signifies the intersection of two leagues, plus not new initials. 😄

XFL name has always been better than UFL. Seems like a downgrade to me.
Fan of the XFL from the beginning. You may remember me from the original XFLboard.
