Re: EX Saints in UFL
 

Will any of these guys make it back to the NFL ???

Re: EX Saints in UFL
 

Nope.

And that's including Hazbeen!

Re: EX Saints in UFL
 

I'm surprised he hasn't signed AB to play quaterback for him. Always seemed like Haz had a total man-crush on Brooks.

well, florida is playing here in orlando, so, i'll go to the games, but, i dont really remember any of those florida guys besides colby, fakhir and sauerbrun. ill never forget jim haslet since he won our first playoff game for us! even if he did drive the team into the ground for sticking w/ brooks two years too long!

Honestly I thought Vick would end up with them
not because of his talent but because of his prison record

Re: EX Saints in UFL

There is so much money in the NFL...it's getting a little ridiculous, in fact. My worst nightmare is that the NFL someday turns into the WWF.

It is my opinion, however, that the exorbitant amount of money that the NFL is bringing in could help bolster a sagging US economy if spent/invested properly.

I have always marveled at the nostalgia, for lack of better word, that minor league baseball brings to America and it's smaller towns. Minor league football could catch-on like wildfire, IMO, if the NFL and it's owners and maybe even more wealthy players invested in it. Attaching their names and faces and more importantly money to the venture would give everybody something. The people in smaller towns like the one I'm living in now, Charleston, WV, would now have another alternative for entertainment not to mention the money that would be brought to the local economy. The NFL owners would now have more than just a practice squad to place project players, and there would be more jobs for everyone.

I'm rambling now, but I think it is food for thought. I would love to see minor league football catch-on in the US the way minor league baseball has. IMO, minor league baseball is a way of life for some small town residents.
