The USFL is back.... not really though.

No, it's not the league starting fall 2010 that we've been hearing about... although that will be awesome I'm sure... the USFL I'm talking about is in my head... well, and in my computer. I'm starting up a Madden based league for my own amusement, and hopefully for yours in the form of recaps, box scores, news stories and pictures.
I have placed original USFL franchises back in these 12 cities.... In the East we have The Birmingham Stallions, Boston Breakers, Jacksonville Bulls, New Jersey Generals, Pittsburgh Maulers, and the Washington Federals. In the West will be The Arizona Wranglers, Chicago Blitz, Denver Gold, Michigan Panthers, Oakland Invaders, and San Antonio Gunslingers.
These teams were selected due to market research, fan loyalty, available stadiums.... actually, none of that is true. they were selected because they are my favorites, and the teams i enjoy drawing the most. Sorry if i left your team out.... let's just pretend your team merged with another as happened so often in the original USFL.
This USFL will be set in modern times.... now as a matter of fact. Gone will be the old stars you knew, and now you will find players (that i have decided) are tired of the NFL, or simply excited to play in the spring. You see, I have no salary cap, so money is no object.... actually, i have no money either, but the players are not aware of that and i propose we keep it that way. I have no intentions of having established NFL stars in my league, unless they are on the downside of thier career. Teams will be stocked with the draft, and by NFL players who would like a chance to start and play full time.
Training camp will begin soon, and player signings are on the horizon.... so check back to see who will be playing for your favorite team(of my favorite teams).
