While I can understand the Roughnecks replacing the Gamblers, you can not tell me that Detroit was a better option than Tampa Bay (or New Orleans). Especially when the Tampa Bay Vipers had fans showing up for the team at Raymond James Stadium. That team could have been the Tampa Bay Bandits. You can also not tell me that the City of New Orleans, Tulane, the Saints, and the UFL would not have worked out a stadium deal to bring the Breakers to Yulman or the Superdome. Also, why 8, why not 10 teams to start the UFL? They could put the Roughnecks in the XFL Conference and add Tampa Bay and New Orleans in the USFL.
