As a longtime Panthers fan, this pisses me off.

Relocating teams in this turd league isn’t going to help.

I really cant understand the way they have run things since the merger. It's like they are trying to make it fail.

Instagram story suggested that the Birmingham Stallions were going to be relocated? Anyone else heard of other teams are on the move?

The only reason anyone would have the slightest bit of interest in this league is gambling. There is no market for in stadium viewing.

Why dont they let this pathetic abomination of a league die?

It’s almost as big a money pit as the WNBA

Hard to take any 8 team league seriously. They need at least 12 teams to really take notice

So many people on this board had this weird fascination with football once that AAF Spring League kicked off. Then you had the XFL and USFL give it a go.

They had some nice logos and catchy names, but it seems like only 2 or 3 markets actually care. The original USFL attracted top talent. Nobody has ties to these Spring teams, so interest is dead.

This. Unless they can attract some named talent, no one outside of St Louis will watch

Where in Michigan did they play? If the answer is downtown Detroit, that market is over saturated for sports already. Grand Rapids, if they have the stadium, would be a better locale, especially since dumpy Detroit already has the NFL.

The only way this could work is if it was an umbrella organization under the NFL for team related player development. I’d watch if the Seahawks had a a prospect blossoming in the league. Keep the teams, but have them associate with 4 NFL teams. Have the NFL team controlled prospects wear a logo patch of their NFL logo on chest/sleeve.

Read that the four teams will be moving to Kentucky, Boise Idaho, Columbus OH and Orlando. . Unfortunately, I couldn’t copy the Instagram feed in time. Not sure how reliable.
