ManillaToad Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 The Knights are the first team to relocate twice right? In LA for 8 years, St. Louis for 9, here's to a decade in Nashville Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to change their nickname, just their logo because it is city-specific, so, new logo. Nashville Knights or Tennessee Titans right? If they go to Nashville, what happens to the Memphis Showboats? Quote The Fictional Story of Austus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManillaToad Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I hope Memphis doesn't move, or if they do, the city gets to keep the history Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinny0930 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 As for relocation, Portland will probably end up in Boston St Louis is going as well My relocation tracker would be: Ohio, Memphis, Birmingham, Atlanta, Orlando Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Louis Knights colors + Tennessee Titans logo = Tennessee Knights is my guess, possibly Nashville Knights, either one would work since the logo has the main element of the Tennessee state flag Edited October 20, 2022 by Dozap17 Wanted to add more to this post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that the Glory may not necessarily leave the state itself, if they do move it'd be up north to Cleveland if they run into stadium issues in Columbus (Ohio Stadium being too big, Crew Stadium too small) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian in Boston Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 So, with the St. Louis Knights becoming the Nashville Knights, how crazy would it be if the Memphis Showboats steamed on up the Mississippi River to Missouri and became the St. Louis Showboats, St. Louis Steamers, or St. Louis Steamwheelers? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neo_prankster Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 @WideRight Have you seen the new Seattle Sea Dragons logo? Could that be a logo you could use for the Dragons of this universe? Quote The Fictional Story of Austus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could that be a logo you could use for the Dragons of this universe? Could happen, though I certainly like the 2020 Dragons logo better than this new one. My overall view of the 2023 XFL is that they screwed up several identities and invented a couple of really bad ones just to make the whole thing stink. The new logos look more like Axe body spray or e-sports designs than football designs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BengalErnst Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 The 2023 XFL logos won’t even be making an appearance in my sim XFL league. No reason to bring those over to his USFL, they’re all awful Quote THE Xtreme Fantasy Football League Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideRight Posted November 4, 2022 Author Share Posted November 4, 2022 OK, just about to publish the article where the move from St. Louis to Nashville becomes official. So you all get a bit of a preview. Initially, and for most of the 2002 season, the uniforms are unchanged, and the helmet is reduced to the basics as the club awaits new branding and does not want to use the logo with the Arch in it. So, this is the 2002 look: Just a wordmark and a helmet with player number. But, at some point in the 2002 season the club will unveil their new look, and, with permission of the league, they will wear this if they qualify for the 2002 playoffs. The uniforms remain basically as they were (based on LA Xtreme of XFL), but with the new sword (Titans-based) logo, and alternate logos including an "N-with-sword" and the state flag motif. Not sure how long the Knights will keep this motif. Also not sure how long St. Louis will go without a USFL club, or whether we will see more teams move as sales are pending on several clubs. I guess you would need to tune in to find out. See it all play out at https://apsbertsche.wixsite.com/mysite 3 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
