Rose colored, saccharine look back at the USFL scapegoating one person for all the league's problems without ever actually examining them. Really poor job by the filmmakers to reign in what seemed to be 3 different documentaries (one about the players, one about Trump v. Bassett, one about the actual league), and instead just gushes about how great the old times were while showing images of LA Coliseum with 12 people in attendance.
