Episode 64 - Does the CFL Have an Entertainment Problem?
CFL, USFL and XFL updates this week on your (hopefully) favorite weekly alt-football show!
The USFL 2.0 Spring 2022 kickoff in Birmingham is a GO, Dany Garcia and Gerry Cardinale address the XFL’s future timeline and we preview CFL week 13 with Natey Adjei, Rob Vanstone and Paul McCallum.
CFL Toronto Argonauts colour commentator Natey Adjei joins us to preview CFL week 13 with a BC Lions vs. Toronto Argonauts preview. We also discuss Nick Arbuckle’s trade to the Edmonton Elks and more. Rob Vanstone, friend of the show returns to discuss whether or not the CFL has an entertainment problem. Are the CFL games exciting enough and should more be expected and we quickly approach the 2022 Grey Cup in Hamilton. Former BC Lions (and XFL Las Vegas Outlaws) kicker Paul McCallum gives his thoughts on the 2022 CFL season, who he sees competing in the East Final and more.
Sportico hosted a “live” Invest in Sports livestream, which featured XFL owners Dany Garcia and Gerry Cardinale. The two dropped some juicy tidbits about future timelines, their plans for a “global” vision and when we should be expecting news.
Finally, it appears all signs point to GO for the USFL 2.0 and a smooth path forward with local Birmingham city officials for an April 2022 kickoff with “efforts now shift to finalizing agreements”. We also have a USFL hat unboxing courtesy of the new USFL merchandise shop and a special, one-of-a-kind Book Cameo surprise for Paul and our listeners!
