The Michigan Panthers Are Back
Last week Fox Sports announced that the USFL will make its return, and now we know that the Michigan Panthers will be apart of it…
The USFL was created in 1983 and only lasted three years, but now it is making a return and thankfully the first champions the Michigan Panthers will be involved.
The new version of the league will feature eight teams split into two divisions –– North and South.
Each team will play a 10-game schedule, with teams in the same division playing each other twice and teams in the other division once.
The Panthers were one of eight teams that unveiled a logo and colors on Monday. They will sport the same colors worn by the original Panthers.
All eight teams will play in one location, which will be announced soon. In the future, the USFL expects teams to play in their own markets.
The season will start in mid-April and run through mid-June, followed by the playoffs.
Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf!
Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
