When Did The USFL Start?
The United States Football League (USFL) has a fascinating journey, from its founding year in the early 1980s to its modern revival in 2022. As a spring football alternative to the NFL, the USFL has left a lasting impact on American sports culture.
My football chat was talking about the Trump DOJ going after the NFL on the basis of their streaming deals, and I was like "Finally, my otherwise useless knowledge of the complete history of the original USFL has use" and I went on a rant about the decades old bad blood between Trump and the NFL who repeatedly went out of their way to block multiple ownership attempts by Trump
Did you know Trump repeatedly lied lied LIED & bankrupted an entire sports league all because the NFL hurt his feelings?
