Agreed!!!! The XFL should definitely and absolutely have two Pro Football 🏈 teams in a major Pro Football 🏈 State such as California and the very cities that the XFL should undeniably have teams in are both San Diego and most assuredly Los Angeles with both the return of the Los Angeles WildCats either exact team colors of red ♥️ black🖤 white 🍚 and sunlight orange 🧡 and the debut of the new XFL Expansion Team in San Diego at SnapDragon Stadium in the San Diego Destroyers with the awesome team colors of aqua blue 🔵 navy blue 💙 silver 🥈and white 🍚 with both teams taking the field to play American Pro Football 🏈 in the XFL for the XFL 2024 Season and by doing the right thing and awarding new XFL Expansion Teams to San Diego and Los Angeles with the return of the Los Angeles WildCats and the XFL 2024 Season Inaugural Debut of the San Diego Destroyers you would create a natural rivalry between both teams in the WildCats and the Destroyers and the fans in their respective cities of San Diego and Los Angeles in addition to bringing in millions of new American Pro Football 🏈 Fans to watch and support the XFL with Pro Football 🏈 teams with the XFL in their respective cities in San Diego and L.A. and equally make millions of dollars in guaranteed revenue on an annual basis for the XFL as a league overal as well in my view.
Felt bad for the Sea Dragons. They played hard both games.

Battle hawks are easily my favorite team this year. As a Bengals fan I’ll be rooting for AJ McCarron🐅
Glad the XFL exists. Not only a opportunity for players who were overlooked, never given a chance or ruined by injury but also an exciting way to fill a void during the off-season.

I’m liking this St. Louis team! Seen them last week too and I gotta say I’m impressed with their game!
These games are great. The majority of the games have come down to the last 3 minutes.
I've been watching AJ since HS. Watched him win a few Natty's at bama. Never the biggest arm, or the fastest, but he always finds a way to win. Spent a decade making millions as a backup, married a supermodel, and now he's 2-0 as an XFL starter.
This is my first time watching XFL highlights and I’m hooked! Since St Louis is closest to me, Go Battlehawks!
This XFL is oddly refreshing for football content… Now… NOBODY DO ANYTHING STUPID UNTIL MAY!!
Turnovers and missed field goal are heartbreaking for the fans of the teams who commit them, but it actually makes for a more exciting game. If the XFL can put on games this entertaining each week I think there is a good chance that this league actually makes it. The fact that there is a live audience (pay attention USFL) makes it more exciting to watch on television as well.
This is more gripping than the NFL? Yes. Yes it is. Sweet!
This was a fun exciting game can't wait for more XFL. XFL XFL XFL XFL XFL XFL XFL
Great game very exciting stuff to the very end
just an unbelievable game, seattle played great but St. Louis just had that magic lol

The comments are great. What I can tell you from being stationed in Oak Harbor, if it is cold in Washington it hits different than Nebraska. Nebraska has the cold with the wind so it could be -40. Seattle is right by Puget sound. Cold nights in Seattle have drizzly dew like conditions with the cold. You get soaked then freeze. Once again the Battlehawks were let off the hook-or found a way. Depends on your allegiance. Great game.
