    if guys are dumping a quarter billion in, there is a good chance it can breathe long enough to get rescued by a decent following.

    Not for me ... I love golf, but I agree with what someone said in that they didn't promote this enough. I'm in Orlando and I hardly heard a peep about this other than a few billboards.

    have no clue why they even try to go against time tested principles. Not ONE football league has survived thats not the NFL
    watched about 3-5 minutes while randomly flipping through the countless commercials on the espns and got nauseous seeing how boring how lifeless it was.

    The NFL itself is becoming more and more difficult to watch, why would anyone waste their time with a knockoff?

    These subsidiary leagues just flat out don't work.
