In 1983 the upstart United States Football League had the audacity to challenge the almighty NFL. Donald Trump, who bought the New Jersey Generals in 1984, brought a large spotlight to him, his team and the league.

  • What a douche Donald is.

  • I will never forgive Trump for wrecking the USFL.  When people look back that the league they should remember the great people involved like John Bassett (Tampa Bay owner) and Carl Peterson (Philly GM). Trump was a joke and his ego took away one of the favorite things in my childhood. I hope this movie tells it right.

  • What killed the USFL really deserves to be written about in a blog which is what I'm going to do

  • Trump is just another way to spell asshole.

  • Donald Trump is a punk.Threating the lives of 5 kids who were accused of raping a woman in Central Park. They were innocent.

  • What killed the USFL is probably many things. But a couple of them is that they expanded into NFL Markets like Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington where they had competition. As well as moving from the Spring to the Fall again more competition.

  • Pompous As*hole = Donald Trump

  • :42--Ivana looked good back then!

  • I can answer that question in two words: Donald Trump. And this is coming from someone who did'nt miss a single Generals game in three years.

  • Trophy wife, super ego, creepy accent, fake hair, Steinbrenner wannbe. An all around goof who will be DOWN there, some day, with George talking about all the people they steamrollered and bullied. The guy makes my skin crawl. I wouldn't give him a drink of piss in the desert.

  • Muslim Mob Kills Wife, Children of Christian in Pakistan

    By Compass Direct News|John Little Pakistan (Compass Direct News) – A Muslim mob in Jhelum, Pakistan murdered the wife and four children of a Christian last month, but local authorities are too afraid of the local Muslim leader to file charges, according to area Muslim and Christian sources.

  • it wont work now...there is no way the usfl will be able to grab players from college like they could back in the day. the nfl strike was the main reason...the usfl had future hall of famers in that league and i dont think it will be able to strike a blow at the nfl after 25 years....the only thing good about the usfl is the logos and the team names...cant beat the HOUSTON GAMBLERS...
