Re: Off topic for XFL
Though I do have a slight problem with the Seattle logo, I personally like the XFL 2.0 dragon more. To be honest it kinda looks like the Seattle Kraken logo but altered a little bit (I mean what else are they supposed to do?).

I think in many cases the logos got downgraded.
Dallas (now Arlington), DC, Seattle for sure.
Every logo, even the ones that remained mostly the same got some sort of update, and I'm not sure if that was a legal thing, or just to set the 2023 XFL more apart from the 2020 XFL.
The wordmarks took the biggest hit for sure. Almost all fell like just generic fonts.

I agree, I really like how the Roughnecks look like the Houston Oilers (My favorite defunct team). It sucks that I never got to experience the Oilers in person, but my mom grew up around the Houston area, and she actually got to sit next to Earl Campbell on a plane ride one time, it's also cool that Wade Phillips is coaching the Roughnecks sort of like a throwback to the Oilers days.

Re: Off topic for XFL
Yea, I think a lot of the uniforms were a downgrade. I like Dc uniforms and STL uniforms as well. Seattle and Houston are very bad.CanadianBacon43 wrote:The Defenders may have downgraded their logo but their new uniforms are very cool to say the least.

Re: Off topic for XFL

No team in my area in both leagues.
The closest teams are the Vegas Vipers and the Seattle SeaDragons, but honestly I'm thinking on joining the St Louis Battlehawks
For the USFL is little bit harder to pick a team since half of the league will not play in their home cities, I read somewhere tha that the Memphis Showboats and Michigan Panthers will play in their home markets next year, so I'm thinking to Join one of them

Personally, I am going to go for the Roughnecks in the XFL and the Showboats in the USFL.
My reasoning for the Roughnecks is that they have a very close resemblance to the Houston Oilers, (sorry if I keep on talking about them). My reasoning for the Showboats is that I always love anything expansion, no matter what sport or league. Since the Showboats are replacing Tampa Bay, they are the new kids on the block, so I am rooting for them. If any team comes to Colorado, I am instantly going for them (Maybe a return for the Denver Gold?).
As a Browns fan, I still don't care that much about how we traded baker to Carolina, that was a great win yesterday though!

I’m a Defenders fan in the XFL and I agree that it’s a little harder to get into the USFL because of the hub format but if I were to pick a team it would be the Philadelphia Stars because I’m an Eagles fan

I am rooting for the DC Defenders in the XFL and rooting for the Birmingham Stallions. I love the USFL more than the XFL since the USFL has a team in my state.

Re: Off topic for XFL
I'd say I'm more of a USFL fan though. Given I'm a Steelers fan, I kind of pull for Pittsburgh, naturally, but Birmingham has the best uniforms by far, and they were such a fun team last season, they were probably my favorite team in 2021.
Best case for spring football though, both leagues are able to be somewhat successful this year, and next year there's some kind of merger (I think more likely the USFL survives). Best best case, the Defenders make it to the USFL, but we shall see.
It will be interesting keeping up the site with both the USFL and XFL going on, especially during the GSL season. A lot of work ahead.

I never had too much trouble getting XFL 2.0 games so I hope ESPN makes it just as easy to access XFL games in Canada this time around.
As long as it’s not AAF levels of difficult to access games I’ll be good

Since ESPN holds the XFL broadcast rights it's possible that their Canadian subsidiary (TSN) shows some games up there
For the USFL idk how Fox and NBC wil handle with the international broadcasts

TSN and ABC would play XFL games last time around so I imagine it would be the same thing but for USFL we don’t get FS1 so whatever games were on the main fox channel we’re what I got
