Each week, host Tim Hanlon interviews former players, owners, broadcasters, beat reporters, and surprisingly famous \"super fans\" of teams and leagues that have come and gone - in an attempt to unearth some of the most wild and woolly moments in (often forgotten) sports history.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-13T08:17:26.986283+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/good-seats-still-available-7112953"},"episode":{"title":"452: The USFL's San Antonio Gunslingers - With Greg Singleton","slug":"452-the-usfl-s-san-antonio-gunslingers-with-greg-singleton","published_at":"2026-07-06T00:13:24+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/good-seats-still-available-7112953/452-the-usfl-s-san-antonio-gunslingers-with-greg-singleton","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/good-seats-still-available-7112953","url":"https://goodseatsstillavailable.libsyn.com/placeholder-390","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/traffic.libsyn.com/secure/goodseatsstillavailable/GSSA_452.mp3?dest-id=480273","summary":"The original USFL produced its share of unforgettable franchises. None was more entertaining — or more unbelievable — than the San Antonio Gunslingers . On the field, they were gritty, competitive and remarkably resilient. Off the field? Pure chaos. Bounced paychecks. A front office operating out of a double-wide trailer. Players racing across South Texas to cash payroll checks before the money disappeared. Coaches juggling multiple jobs. Ownership lurching from one financial crisis to the next. And somehow . . . they kept playing football. This week, we welcome former Gunslingers public relations director Greg Singleton , author of Gunnin' for Glory , for an insider's look at one of professional football's most delightfully dysfunctional organizations. Singleton takes us beyond the incredulity, introducing the coaches, players and front-office personalities who somehow turned daily dysfunction into lifelong friendships. Along the way come unforgettable tales featuring penny-pinching owner Clint Manges, coaches Gil Steinke and Jim Bates, star quarterback Rick Neuheisel, and a supporting cast so colorful they almost defy belief. + + + SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee : https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The \"Good Seats\" Store : http://tee.pub/lic/RdiDZzQeHSY BUY THE BOOK: \" Gunnin' for Glory: The Wild, Weird, Wonderful Stories of the USFL's San Antonio Gunslingers \": https://amzn.to/3QCOcY3 SPONSOR THANKS: Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS ): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS ): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://…","meta_description":"The original USFL produced its share of unforgettable franchises.
