I'm a little surprised at this actually. Damn China virus anyway!!!!

Hard to have a league when you cant have fans in the stands and games on the tele.

Pretty bad timing for them. Maybe they can get a bailout

What's FHCMR going to do now?

There's always one last, last , last adventure to be had somewhere. My guess: He coaches another team to a .500 record for the next 3 years and gets let go.

I will say, it wasn't that bad this go around. I watched many more games and really liked some of the concepts they were trying. Maybe at some point the NFL can just give us a G-League for the spring and use the actual NFL teams.

I see what you did there. Left me... BREATHLESS!

Never was going to make it but the Coronavirus finished it off a little sooner than anticipated.

It was actually interesting to watch, and I liked it’s transparency.

He just barely missed his window in Lincoln. Now you get a 7-year extension for that.

I think that's what it would take for this league to stick.

Say it's not true!

If they only could have found a way to continue to play during this, they’d have been the only game in town. Imagine the ratings....

They didn't really have fans in the stands. The telecasts were pretty careful in not showing the empty stadiums.

It is too bad... Demorney Pierson-El was really having a great season. I hope he gets picked up.

 

[tpmcg_rivals137159]

it had some very compelling ideas, but with college ball and pro - its a little saturated.
i think people like to pine for football season as much as have football season.

ouch. Troll.

There's going to be a BUNCH of businesses that the CV is going to finish off. IF we don't get the doors back open in the next couple of weeks, look out. Those paltry government checks don't pay the bills.
