Because attendance figures of 5-7k show what, exactly?

Overall folks need to chill out on the "sky is falling" mentality over the attendance. I'm quite sure there are a lot of folks like me that have bought in heavily on past spring leagues to only see them falter and vanish and are taking a more cautious approach to fandom this time around.

I'm watching at least parts of almost every game, catching highlights on YouTube and the like, but I'm not "all in" as I have been in the past.

I'd bet this is even more rampant in towns (Birmingham, Memphis, San Antonio) that have seen many spring football teams come and go.

Patience, I'd bet the folks running this thing are a little better at making the decisions that we are.

Panthers posted a video of their “new home” which is a Texas High School football stadium

I’m not sure if you are trying to throw some shade with this remark or not, but it’s a great practice facility for the league.

One fairly small error doesn’t make it the worst either

Who says it’s an error? It’s a stylistic choice and an iconic helmet. Having grown up in south Florida in the late 70’s and 80’s that orange helmet is iconic and badass.

That was fun to follow…thanks dude.

Spring football needs some new blood…Miami.

Time to get in on some voting action instead of just observing I reckon…Vulcans.

The suspense on this one is killing me.

If you don't want this league to work, just don't comment on it. There are some of us who enjoy having a team to support that's 20 minutes away instead of 20 hours away. I'm looking forward to this year and intend to enjoy it while I can. 

I think that dude is better suited for the cesspool better known as Reddit.

The Colorado Rapids also use a variation of it (which i know is easy to forget—I keep forgetting it

The Colorado Avalanche as well.

First time I've heard the combined name Ramblers...clever and I dig it. Well played sir, well played.

I’m quite sure you’re just being a bit of a smart-ass, but if you don’t know who at least some of these dudes are you haven’t been following spring football the last few years at all and that leaves me wondering why you’re even here commenting.

So how long before they announce league sponsors that are all owned or endorsed by the Rock?

I don’t understand why so many people are hung up on this point. Who cares who owns them or if the Rock endorses them, it’s a fledgling minor league spring football league that has sponsors and that’s the important thing.

What a great game...that is how exciting a championship game should be.

How many Fred Durst posters do you up on your wall?

Why man, why? Seriously, what need is there to attack me here at all? Childish.

@Skycast 

Yes?

Something must really be eating at you to call me out like that. Are you trying to make this Reddit and stir up something that doesn't need to be there.

I love the "sword slash" across the numbers...very clever, and the color scheme on this one is wonderful.

"Boston Wicked"? They may as well have called them the Boston Vanilla NutTaps.

That SNL skit is pure gold and an all-time favorite. I'd totally buy me some Vanilla NutTaps schwag.

I'm not a fan of the hub model either and in an ideal situation it would just go away, but I'd much rather have hub spring football on my TV than no spring football.

There might end up being two if all the speculation holds true: A Super League of the Power 5 Conferences and whatever is left of the NCAA.

It'll be no different than it is right now with multiple "minor leagues" with FBS, FCS, DII and DIII except the FBS will be splintered off somehow simply creating another level.

In my opinion it's high time that it's done. In the FBS there are absolutely haves (Alabama, Ohio State, etc.) and the have nots and no matter how much you want to tell me they are equal, they are not.

Doesn't quite work for me, looks more like C than a G. Perhaps an O in the middle instead of the state outline.

When the new "UXFL" or whatever this renamed league fails, who owns/retains the XFL brand for when they give it a 4th shot in 2028?

I vote for the United Spring Football League.

2-0

I've been a season ticket holder for 15+ years now and the electricity on campus Saturday was marvelous and the stadium was still packed until the very end. It's definitely a new, Prime, era...amazing what one person can do for a program.

I simply don't understand why some of the artists I love on this site aren't designing uniforms for leagues, especially the newer XFL and USFL. Much (okay, most if not all) of what you do here is head and shoulders above their designs.

That is so freakin' sweet, one thing though, there is a little holdover Denver stuff in the Secondary Wordmark language.

You'll get past it.

 

For the record, if you read the original post you'll see that I was quoting what he said. That aside, I do have a tendency towards R-rated language. It's all part of my delightful personality.

Yea, I'm way past it, but as a representative of this site it's my feeling that you should rise above and take the higher road when interacting. And all of those censored emojis you used are not from quoting what he said.

But I guess, if you're just an ass in how you communicate then you're just an ass. It's a shame because outside of that the content of your posts are valid and if I was running this site I wouldn't want something like that representing me or this (otherwise) fine site.
