Hope They Come Out Slinging (1984 Preview)
by: Jenna Branko, Gunslingers! (a fan zine)
The 1984 USFL season is nearly upon us. With that, six new teams join the league. One of them, as written about previously in this zine, is your San Antonio Gunslingers. The team represents the first professional football team in this area of Texas. If the letters to the editor column of this publication is to be believed, that has you all excited beyond belief.
I, for one, can’t wait to see what professional football looks like when it isn’t in Dallas or Houston. Let them have the Cowboys and the Oilers. We have our Gunslingers! Several teams have already committed to some big names. Others promise to bring high flying offense to the league in the form of the Run and Shoot offense. I hope our team commits to the same. Imagine the battles between Rick Neuheisel and Jim Kelly for king of USFL Texas. It gives me chills.
