UFL on Versus

[Lzen]

Looks pretty cool so far. This is not arena football. Just normal football, it seems. Several of these guys have been in the NFL at one point or another. Is this the new NFL minor league?

[RustShack]

To the TV's! Scout the Oline!

[Reaper16]

TUSKERS

[Reaper16]

The one problem with the UFL so far is that all teams appear to have some variation of teal or sky blue on their uniforms.

[Thig Lyfe]

Can't watch when all the uniforms look exactly the same. It's mind-numbing.

[KCChiefsMan]

ya, I was watching a little bit. I might pay attention to it, hell maybe 2K sports can make a football game about it and it would be awesome! In fact, that would be really awesome.

[alanm]

Direct TV dropped Versus for the time being. Guess Comcast is trying to extort megabucks from them so Direct TV told them to take a flying f*ck.

[boogblaster]

Well if DTV dropped them guess I wont be watching any games ....

Yep, notthing like the UFL losing a HUGE part of its TV viewers... Nice work Comcast... You frocking douche sniffers...

I was going to turn it on for a bit, but since all I get is a lame message on that channel I won't be watching because of that BS.

Yep, hell I would just put it on and let it run, just for the ratings... But if they all want to be cock holsters about it, well then they can suck it....

Good idea, one that so many sports gamers would love to see come to fruition.

[tyler360]

lol one of the teams has Sammie Parker. God I hate that guy

You're not missing much.

[HoneyBadger]

Maybe the Chiefs would be successful in this league!!

[Reaper16]

The Florida TUSKERS would beat the Chiefs.

TUSKER PRIDE! *snort*

[ChiefsCountry]

Do they have some Bearcats on the roster?

[Reaper16]

Do they have some Bearcats on the roster?
Yeah, two. I'm fucking transparent, aren't I. :D

[Reaper16]

T-U-S-K

E-R-S-*snort*

[tyler360]

JP losman looks like complete balls playing against a UFL team. He looked damn good against the Chiefs way back when. That is sad as hell

[Thig Lyfe]

Maybe.

[Reaper16]

The commentator said "[The blocker] didn't even touch the punter" as the slow-mo replay shows the blocker's hand come down on the ankle of the punter, bringing the punter down on top of him.

[Reaper16]

Sammie Parker just took a kick return to the 50 yard line. He showed monumental restraint by not frantically making the "first down" sign with his arm.

[Deberg_1990]

Tuskers look like the team to beat in the UFL this year. About to go 2-0!

[Deberg_1990]

Jay Gruden? Related to Jon?

[tyler360]

They must have a huge penalty for doing the first down dance because i havent seen Samie Parker do it yet. I think it he is about to blow up

[ChiefsCountry]

Jay Gruden? Related to Jon?

Its his brother.

[RustShack]

I do kind of miss us getting first downs..

[Deberg_1990]

Sammie Parker TD!!!

[tyler360]

Touchdown Samie Parker!!!!!! O shit he did not go quite as crazy as i thought he would

[tyler360]

I do kind of miss us getting first downs..

Lol I think the NFL instituted the no spike rule just for Dante and Samie Parker after their patented 5 yard catches and spike celebrations

[RustShack]

Wheres Bobby Sippio? Casey Printers? Boomer Grigsby? Rich Scanlon?

[Deberg_1990]

Wheres Bobby Sippio? Casey Printers? Boomer Grigsby? Rich Scanlon?

Sippio is playing for the Cali Redwoods....not sure about the others...

[RustShack]

Samie AGAIN! Lets bring him back in!!

[Reaper16]

The Tuskers are undeterred by Samie Parker's offensive production.

[Deberg_1990]

Bump....NY Sentinels at Cali Redwoods on HDNET right now if anyones interested.
Former Chiefs Quinn Gray and Crap Thorpe.

[ILChief]

I'm sure the NHL is real happy about the Vs./DirecTv deal. I wish ESPN would start showing NHL again.

Need some versus on Direct TV...

[ChiefsCountry]

This. :clap:

[sportsman1]

This thread really reads as a joke. If I didn't know better I wouldn't believe there was a UFL. Is it really worth watching? I mean is the football good? If it has Craphonso, and Sammie it must be epic!

The football actually isnt too bad. There are a ton of guys who played in the NFL plus all 4 Head coaches are ex NFL guys: Fassel, Haslett, Denny Green and Ted Cottrell.


The biggest problems are the look of the crowds (looks to only be about 5 or 6 thousand at each game) and the TV commentator crews are not the best.

[jjjayb]

Direct TV dropped Versus for the time being. Guess Comcast is trying to extort megabucks from them so Direct TV told them to take a flying f*ck.

I was just listening to a guy from the vs. network on either 610 or 810am. He said Directv's claims of demanding a 20% increase are outright lies. He said they offered to keep the cost to Directv the same as their original contract and Directv declined. He said Directv wanted to put vs. on a higher price tier and vs. refused to let them.

[chiefsfan4life1978]

Ya me too. Ya know what i'm sayin?

[big nasty kcnut]

What this vs. you speak of.

[alpha_omega]

I finally caught this for the first time last night. Since i don't have NFL network i figured last night was a good time to check it out.

Overall, i thought it was fine. I wasn't to impressed with Kordell Stewart as the sideline reporter, but overall i thought the telecast was ok.

The football seemed pretty good. Lots of player names that i recognized...Ingle Martin, Quinn Gray, Simeon Rice, Rob Petitti, Cecil Sapp, Seth Wand, Tatum Bell, and more.

The one thing that did stand out was that the stands were EMPTY!

Other than that, i was pleased. I would have rather been watching SF and CHI, but that complaint/argument is for another thread.

Yea, overall the quality of the football isnt too bad.

They need to do something about the crowds...but i have no idea how they can hide it???
