The fact that Mike Pereira is the USFL head of officiating doesn’t give me much hope.

I have found Pereira’s commentary on NFL games to be pretty insightful.  Is it just me?

Translation:  we know these games are boring as f**k and we're trying to do something about it.

They should also ban any wide angle shots of the empty stadium.

"To maximize fan enjoyment"??? So less football is what the fans want? No. Not at all. So tired of this league catering to fringe fans, and jamming a middle finger in the faces of their loyal fan bases. This rule is for gf's and wives that "tolerate" the game. Lets sacrifice a bunch of plays, and change a rule thats been around since inception, so non-fans can watch something else 11mins earlier

 

edit: is this usfl only? good God please. knee jerk reaction by me, but im so used to Goodell dry ****ing my favorite sport to death

By tapping the talent of the USFL referee pool at least the league is trying to upgrade its officiating.

Why not include that the clock starts when they kick the ball, instead of when the returner catches it.

Offer that suggestion. There might be a way to email the league.
