  • ITP #008: Rivals Of The NFL
    Aug 24 2023

     

    Episode 8. The NFL, as a brand and as a product, seems impervious to competition. Many startup leagues have tried to take on the billion dollar empire and help itself to a slice of the pie. All of them have failed. On this latest Inside The Pocket, the boys look back at the USFL, XFL and the recent AAF and try to understand what went wrong, and if they ever really stood a chance. Enjoy!
