    I still have my certificate signed by Dick Coury from my tryout with the New Orleans Breakers.

    Lupica was such a lapdog for the USFL during the trial, he should have been on retainer.

    Bring back the Stars.

    (And if the USFL does come back, I guess I'll have to ask the moderators to change the number in my handle to 54)

    The last player of the USFL on an NFL roster was Philadelphia Stars punter Sean Landeta, who was signed in late 1986 by the New York Giants. He announced his retirement on March 6, 2008, the 25th anniversary of the first USFL game.

    Doesn't Birmingham get tired of the revolving door of pro football teams?

    If I had any coaching experience, I'd apply for one of the coaching jobs.

    Then again, Marty Hurney went from sportswriter to general manager, not head coach. Eh.

    This probably won't even last the season.

    That would be Steve Ehrhart (sp?), the executive director of the Liberty Bowl.

    i met mrs. shockey when she worked for the usfl. at least two other prominent sports journos i know also ended up marrying lovely women of the usfl.

    no usfl jokes allowed in this household. mrs. shockey still calls it the best working experience of her life.
