Say whatever you want about the FCF, but there’s no doubt at all that league has done an excellent job of generating attention.
It was huge news when Johnny Manziel agreed to play for the Zappers. Now, Josh Gordon is also headed to the team.
Bringing in two huge names who played in the NFL is a hell of a start for the new league.
Listen we’re 0-2.
I can’t have that. So I called in a few of the guys who can play pick up ball better than anyone else out there https://t.co/7fnIp5Nl1c— Bob Menery (@BobMenery) February 27, 2021
It’s going to be a ton of fun to watch Manziel throw passes to Gordon, even if it’s in a league that doesn’t really matter much.
We’re all about the Zappers on this site!

Something tells me Gordon is going to be damn near unstoppable, and I can’t wait to watch it unfold.
