WOW! Have you caught your breath yet after last night’s thrilling United Football League debut?
Oh wait, you don’t have the ‘Versus’ network? Yeah, me neither. I didn’t even know this league was starting yesterday, and I try to keep up on things like, you know, new professional football leagues starting up and stuff. I actually thought the UFL was kinda still in its developmental stage, where they were threatening to start, getting investors, hiring Arena ball castoffs etc.
But no, last night we (well, you) got to see the legendary JP Losman lead the Las Vegas Locomotives past the California Redwoods 30-17. You throw the records out when these two UFL powerhouses get together. Actually, since I have to play Trent Edwards at QB this weekend, I wouldn’t mind Losman back in ‘the B-LO’ for a short stint, throwing to #81.
Also, what’s up with these names? ‘Locomotives’? ‘Redwoods’? I get it, they’re gonna call the Vegas team the ‘Locos’, but still. The Florida ‘Tuskers’? Seriously? Tuskers? New York Sentinels? Is that a pro football team or a roving band of geeky newspaper editors?
Good luck UFL. Judging by the turnout and publicity of your premier game, luck is a mistress for which you will not have much time, but will still rob you blind.
