    Great 30 for 30 that you can watch on Netflix, "who killed the USFL" basically blames Trump for the league failing. Great old footage of the games.

      I remember when that league crashed and burned......actually worked out pretty well for the Brownies....

      If memory serves me, there was a supplemental draft and we got Minnefield, Mike Johnson, Kevin Mack and the Cube all in one fell swoop......1 year later, we tapped Bernie in the Supplemental draft too.....

      All grrreat scores!

      Thanks Donald

            So we have Trump to thank for the Browns taking off to Blt? Is that verifiable?

              Indirectly perhaps.

              The Colts left Baltimore I think in 1984. That year also, the Philadelphia Stars moved to Baltimore. They won the USFL championship.

              Had the USFL hung on and eventually merged with the NFL, the Baltimore Stars would have clearly been one of the favorites among USFL teams to merge into the NFL.....and obvously that market would not have been open 10 years later.

                  It is a stretch, sure.....but honestly, you have no capability of making a counterargument.

                      I don't think it a far stretch to say: USFL merges with NFL>>>>>>Baltimore Stars become member of NFL>>>>>>no attempt to move Browns to Baltimore, obviously.

                      But>>>>> Incompetent Art Modell would have simply picked some other city that may have tried to induce him to play there.
