Arrr, Larry David be spillin' his thoughts fer the United Football League, set to set sail later this moon in the wake of the XFL and USFL joinin' forces. Let's hope this league be smoother sailin' than a ship in a storm! Aarrr!
Avast ye mateys! The United Football League be making its grand debut after combin' the XFL and USFL. But it seems that Larry David be havin' a bone to pick with the UFL - he be wantin' them goalposts gone from the field!The scallywag comedian reached out to UFL co-owner Dwayne Johnson to make his case. The Rock, in his usual jestin' manner, took to X to address the situation, claimin' they had a "spirited and very productive conversation" about David's dislike of goalposts and field goal kicks.Arrr! The XFL rules be such that teams couldn't kick extra points after a touchdown. Instead, they had to run a play for one, two, or three points, dependin' on where they be on the field.In the NFL, teams have the option to kick for an extra point or go for a two-point conversion. Even though David be admitin' he didn't know about the XFL rules, they be carryin' over to the UFL.If Larry were NFL commissioner for a day, he'd be swabbin' the deck and gettin' rid of them goalposts faster than a ship in a storm. The UFL's inaugural season be startin' with the Arlington Renegades facin' off against the Birmingham Stallions, and the St. Louis Battlehawks battlin' the Michigan Panthers on March 30.So batten down the hatches and join the Fox News Sports crew for all the latest updates on the UFL!
