The UNGL (United National Gridiron League) announced last week that they will kick off their inaugural season on May 3, and they have taken the next step towards making that a reality by releasing their schedule of games.

Part of that process ? which should silence any critics and relieve any worries after the initial delays -- is providing RealGM with the specifics of their seven-game slate.
