DP Are you ready for some football…this spring? April kicks off the new USFL…
United States Football League…with eight teams, a 10-game schedule and
play-offs. One oddity: All games will occur at two stadiums in Birmingham, Ala.
The league has a good TV deal and its finances appear solid. 43 games will be
on national TV, either on Fox or on stations affiliated with NBC Sports. Yet
success is not guaranteed, with a saturated American sports landscape. Still,
sports wagering is sure to help gin up national interest in the league.
