Title: So apparently Birmingham has an outstanding USFL Post by: SmokeyJoe on June 26, 2022, 05:01:26 EDT team? Hilarious in fact. Alabama has operated a semi-professional operation for years. They deserve a minor league franchise in Birmingham :dude: :patriot: :powert:
Title: Re: So apparently Birmingham has an outstanding USFL Post by: Black Diamond Vol on June 26, 2022, 06:50:01 EDT I've paid next to no attention to the USFL this year- but if I were a conspiracy theorist, I might think that since every regular season game for all teams was played in B'ham, they stacked the home team's roster to juice the attendance. :dunno:
Title: Re: So apparently Birmingham has an outstanding USFL Post by: Tnphil on June 26, 2022, 08:25:50 EDT I hit and missed watched some games...When I was watching the B'ham team they had some pretty good crowds. The other games pretty much had no one there. I was told they set it up to play all their games there due to Covid rules at the time (sort of like a bubble). When the rules changed it was too late for them to get all other other locations ready so they just went with the all B'ham format.

Pre-NIL bammer's salary was likely larger than the USFL team's...a lot larger. :laugh: |
