For me: USFL of course the Generals, and XFL the now closest team to North Jersey the DC Defenders I'll be watching FCF way more than these leagues.

GDAWG Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Some interesting names in that group, including two USFL QBs. AJ McCarron will probably be better in the XFL than in the NFL. And I think Ben DiNucci was probably going to be back with the Cowboys had Dak's injury been more serious than it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a team with the best fan base from the last go around, better hope they're at least 2-1 and competitive to boost the fan base expectations. Can't believe St. Louis isn't one of the week 1 games. Three games in Texas in Week 1 just feels lazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that the Dome in St. Louis is probably already booked with previously-planned convention-related events for those opening three weeks. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three games in Texas in Week 1 just feels lazy. I think they're counting on St. Louis home games to prop up the rest of the league at the back end of the season if the attendance numbers drop elsewhere. San Antonio is in the same boat. Home game to start the year before hitting the road until Week 5. Then they're at home the last three weeks. It makes planning for the season pretty easy for me and it lines up to having home games during Fiesta which will bring more people into town. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCall Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 So, evidently, they ARE doing divisions. DC, ST. LOUIS, SEATTLE & VEGAS in the North. ARLINGTON, HOUSTON, ORLANDO & SAN ANTONIO in the South. 1 Quote https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCarp1231 Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 It’s a bit of an odd choice to have North and South Divisions. DC is playing Seattle and Vegas twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe St. Louis had the MOST flexibility while other teams had schedule conflicts. But the broader point remains: Unike NFL teams, these guys get second (if not third) billing in most of these stadiums, with perhaps Arlington as an exception. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Las Vegas Lights delayed their home opener two months later to May 5 to accomodate the XFL at Cashman Field. The Lights will get their home back with a more than likely torn up turf.

Sykotyk Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 On 1/8/2023 at 2:48 PM, GDAWG said: Houston, despite the fact it's in Texas With the XFL doing the airline equivalent of hub and spoke, it makes sense to group the three Texas teams together since they're basing their operations out of Arlington. They're going to have 1 to 3 games a week nearby for travel. Keep them grouped, and you're guaranteed at least 1 Texas team in the playoffs, preferably two. And if rumor is true that the final is in San Antonio, then at least 2 of 3 playoff games are a short drive from Arlington. If you did East/West and put Houston in the East with DC, STL, and ORL, you're risking LV and SEA winning the west playoff spots, and Houston missing the two eastern spots. And then your playoffs are all outside Texas. And that neutral site rumored title game will have 50 people at it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
