I watched all the games in week 1, half the games in week 2, and nothing since. Life’s too short for mediocre football when it’s up against the NCAA tourney, NBA playoffs, NHL playoffs, and the MLB regular season.

I understand all of that except for the MLB's regular season. The UFL season being at the same time as 3 major tournaments really does hurt it, and that's also not counting the multiple golf majors that go on during this time as well. I also wouldn't call it mediocre football when many of the games are better than some NFL games IMO.

That Stallions game was one of the best football games I've ever attended in person! I think 14,000 is decent considering the people who showed up are fans of the Stallions. Everyone online makes a big deal about AJ playing back in Alabama, but when I talk to the average person who doesn't really keep up with the league, these 3 things are consistent 1. They know the Stallions are doing good, they may not know they are undefeated, but they know they are having a good season. 2. They know there is another really good team on the XFL side of the league, they may or may not know it's the Battlehawks, they just know there is another good team. 3. They know AJ McCarron is playing in this league. They can't tell you what team he's on, they just know he's on a team, some even think he's on the Stallions. Your average Bama fan likes AJ, but they don't really follow him or any other Bama player once they leave Bama. I thought the TV ratings should have been better, but Mother's Day does play a factor in attendance and viewership. I invited 3 different guys and their kids to this game and 2 turned me down because of Mother's Day. One of them I even said what you said, that Mother's Day is on Sunday and the game is on Saturday, to which he replied, "It's called Mother's Day Weekend for a reason". I for one am so glad that me and my son went and the guy who did go with me , who had never been to a Stallions game couldn't stop talking about how much fun this one was. On a side note, they had a meet and greet with some of the players the day before at Top Golf, mostly the defensive guys and that was fun to. My 13 and 6 year old son went with me and they really enjoyed it as well. My 6 year old asked Jordan Thompson if he had ever seen the Breakers play, since that was our favorite team the past couple of years, and he said " Not in at least a year" 😂😂😂 Giddy Up!!

Mother's day weekend really did hurt the ratings this week, but I still can't feel anything but disappointed in the Stallions TV ratings. The league really needs to focus this upcoming off-season on local marketing so people actually care about their local team and understand the league better. I wish I lived near a team so I could go to those events, but it's awesome to hear that you guys had an awesome time at the Top Golf event! Ps: that was a cold response by Jordan 😂!

Yes! The Band is getting back together!

I really think that UFL leadership is trying to set up Battlehawks v Stallions for the UFL championship because I noticed that there are times when a defensive player can make a clean tackle but they don't like they were told not to tackle the person. Also the Roughnecks shouldn't be called that because they're just the Gamblers rebranded

I bet the higher ups want a Staions vs Battlehawks Championship game, bug there is no way they would try and "forcefully" make it happen. The main reason I say that I when you look back at the 2023 USFL season the Maulers went from being a team no one liked or cared about to becoming one of the most loved teams in the league because of their late season run to make the playoffs and beat the Panthers in what many people view as the best modern spring football fame of all time. I do agree that the Gamblers/Roughnecks was totally botched as before the team was announced I tried to speak as loud as I could that rebranding the Gamblers to the Roughnecks was a horrid idea as you made fans of the Roughnecks and Gamblers upset for different reasons, add that to playing in a stadium no one wants them at and them being a bad team you have a recipe for awful attendance and overall fanfare.

@@ZombPhoxUFL I'm not saying that the league is forcing a matchup between them but it seems that way, though I could be wrong which I hope that I am. The XFL fans would have accepted if the Roughneck's brand was retired because now that brand is ruined because of the bad coaching from the Roughnecks staff

Nah bro got the clean shave 😂. Also don't know if you mentioned this but Stallions Battlehawks peaked at 1.4 Million

Battlehawks vs Stallions championship game will be electric. Hopefully, there will be no injuries between now and then. Watch Renegades play hard the rest of the way. It's been a nice season. 1st round Michigan at Birmingham. Could they possibly beat 14,000? Pathetic

That Birmingham attendance number was easily the most disappointing thing of the week IMO. While the TV number also was disappointing, the attendance number should have been no less than 15,000 when you consider it is the return of AJ to Alabama and the fact that it was a heavyweight clash.

GOTY Should have been on Sunday Night ‼️

Facts, I saw someone somewhere say that the afternoon FOX timeslot has been the worst all season, and I kinda agree with that.

Every game needs to be played in Birmingham & STL somehow….?
