I’m just curious if anyone is watching. It’s been entertaining.
I keep wondering if there’s a potential spring camp/minor league future for the UFL. They could start popping up in college stadiums during the off season. Imagine if a college team, let’s say the Arkansas Razorbacks, had a UFL team that focused on giving former Razorbacks a place to play if they don’t go to the NFL. It could even be a way to entice middling players to go to that school. Now do that with any college that wants to participate.
No team is near me, so I said to myself “I’ll give it a chance and root for the team with the best logo.” But then the teams were revealed and every single one of the logos is terrible.
Is this superficial and dumb? Absolutely. But I haven’t paid attention since.
I saw the Houston Roughnecks vs the DC Defenders. I thought the Roughnecks decked out in Red, White, and Blue was way too pandering. But also, it encourages every team to do the same to pander to the masses. And before you know it, every team is rocking RWB to show how much they love America. Total chaos.
And to make it all worse, they were playing against a team from the Capitol. If anyone should have RWB, it should be the DC Defenders. But they took the high road and chose traditional colors. Fuck the Roughnecks. The Defenders is my team (unless I arbitrarily decide a different team is my team later).
Thats what I did. I supported the Seattle Dragons, but they didn’t make the merger. Now I support DC.
