Stan White, the first active NFL player to jump to the USFL, predicts the new league will have a players' association similar to the one in which he was an active member during last season's strike.
But the veteran linebacker, who signed a three-year contract with the Chicago Blitz Wednesday, said the philosophy in the new league will be different than the one that existed between the NFL Players Association and the owners.
White was the Detroit Lions' player rep and a vice president of the NFLPA. He was openly critical of the NFL during last season's strike
