Great article, but if the league doesn't want the "F" to become known for something completely different, they may want to reconsider some of the explicit music being blared out at the stadiums and installing a delay (bleep opportunity) for broadcasts if players will continue to be mic'd and aired. Some very objectionable material is being put out there for such a supposedly family friendly venture.

for those skeptics: every pro sports league in america were not instant successes either. how long did the WNBA wait to be taken seriously? how did MLS become more popular today than it did when it started? and most importantly, the NFL waited 30 years to finally catch on! the ufl has said that this wasnt a defining season for them. if they wanted it to be, then they wouldve had more than 4 teams. theyve toured around each team's areas to find a main fan base (most have already found it) and there is obviously room for improvement. the ufl has successfully avoided the xfl's failures. the xfl hyped up their league months in advance and the "show" was a disaster. the ufl showed they really dont need a showcase approach to endorse pro football. they let their quality of play be the mouth for the first year. now that theyve shown so far that this is legit, hard-hitting, fast-paced football, they can use that approach for their 2nd season marketing campaign. i give them a thumbs up for that, n we all can judge the league's potential during next season, when 6 teams take the field n more talent pours in.

1000 miles, that is.

Amazing. Over 100 miles away, and you captured the exact same thing that I saw at all 3 Tuskers' home games that I went to. Truly awesome, and well-said.

Good article. It must have been a unique experience to be "up close and personal" at the game. Ted Cottrell is in a very, very competitive league with only 4 teams and 6 regular season games. He has tough opponents in Jim Fassel, Dennis Green, and Jim Haslett. Hopefully, season one is a learning process for him (just as it is for the league as a whole), and he comes back stronger in season two.
