If Trump had managed to thus convert his USFL franchise into a much more valuable NFL franchise, the other USFL franchise owners would have got the same for theirs. I don’t see that as selfish. Simply a difference of business opinion.

"Sharkey's Machine is one of my favorite Burt movies. And YES Rachel Ward was a big reason why."

For a moment I thought he was the HIV positive mystery man coming out.

When Burt Reynolds was at his most godlike in the late 70’s, didn’t he announce a “Who Wants to Have Burt Reynolds’ Baby?” contest?

Only the hottest women in America were allowed to apply.

IIRC it was intended as a colossal joke since he thought the fan adoration had gotten way out of hand.

The gum chewing. The bluff manner. The insouciance. Perfect.

OMG... you just took me back to my teens with that picture and dreaming about her. To me she was the perfect girl/woman.

I completely forgot about Trump's involvement in the USFL.

He's done so many things.

She's aged very gracefully, too:

I guess Trump's got my vote, on this issue anyway.

The Michigan Panthers gave Michigan football fans a championship, while for 60 years the NFL Lions have sucked.

+1 for Trump.

EVERY USFL owner got into it with the ultimate goal of being swallowed up by the NFL and having an NFL franchise.
