Stop with the negativity about each league and the writers/reporters/content creators that cover them. We need to be encouraging these leagues as these players, coaches, and staff members have sacrificed a lot to be apart of the sport they
I got to check out Celtic Park in Glasgow, Scotland, home of

My personal thoughts on the potential XFL-USFL merger: I’m all for it. The sad reality we have seen with spring football in the past is these leagues don’t last long because of finances. Merge both leagues together and not only do you get the great TV deal of USFL, but the
Honestly, despite the fact I cover the Renegades, I do feel bad for the
@XFLBattlehawks
and
@Anthony_Becht
. To go 7-3 and not make a playoffs is a crime. That really should change. Moving forward, there shouldn’t be divisions. Just the best four teams in the playoffs.

Anytime I see XFL vs USFL rating tweets. I’m just happy each league got through their seasons and will do it again next year.

In case anyone is over this, the UFL starts March 30th between the Birmingham Stallions and the Arlington Renegades. I can personally promise you Taylor Swift won’t be at the games.
#UFL
I’ve bitten my tongue on attendance all season, but I’m going to say it: Birmingham has to do better.
This is a team taking their third straight trip to the league title and only 10K showed up to the conference title game? I’ve heard excuses about some games had rain in the
The official attendance figure for The USFL Conference Championship Game between the Michigan Panthers and Birmingham Stallions at Protective Stadium is 10,287
#UFL
#UFL2024
Honestly, I know everyone wanted St. Louis to make the UFL title as it would help with attendance, but the Brahmas and Stallions are the 2 true best teams in the league this season. The Battlehawks have struggled since McCarron got hurt. Chase Garbers and Adrian Martinez are 2 of
You tell me if Dallas is ready for

football. Wow what a turn out! I’ll be at Globe Life Park covering the Dallas Renegades open practice/meet and greet event starting now.

Huge shoutout to
@USFL
for getting through and completing their first season. We have seen leagues like AAF and XFL not being able to complete their seasons. XFL couldn’t control what happened to them, but still. Huge accomplishment to finish the season.
#USFL
The XFL today announced updates to its 2023 schedule in partnership with The Walt Disney Company and ESPN, the exclusive broadcast partner of the XFL.
Press release:
Already quite the line going for

Today was a great day for the

With some time to personally reflect, what an incredible day yesterday was. It was a fun game to go to and the season in general was a unforgettable experience.
Thank you to

Just finished watching the Generals-Stallions

game. What a way to start the season! Best first game to a new league I have ever seen. Not a ton of penalties, only 2 turnovers, great action in the 4th quarter. Well done!!

We are officially two weeks away from the

Domination by Tampa Bay. Easy win over Pittsburgh 17-3. Ta’amu was good, but could be better. Pittsburgh has a lot to fix. Overall, solid week one for the USFL. Well done!

Happy Friday everyone! I want to challenge the spring/alternative football community to do one thing today: spread positivity. There has been so much negative comments towards individuals since the XFL-USFL merger talks so I’m going to take this time to highlight some great

Just got off the Zoom call for the media with

#XFL
My personal thoughts on Week 1 of the UFL season:
- I think offenses need to look more polished, but that is pretty typical for the opening weekend so I will give them grace.
- San Antonio was the most impressive team of the weekend. Chase Garbers was one of the top QBs this
Week 1 of the ELF starts this week! Very excited to reveal that I will be commentating games this season. I won’t be calling games this weekend, but I will officially start in Week 2. It’s been awhile since I have called a football game, but I’m excited to be back at it!
#ELF
We hear that the new XFL coaches are in Dallas Texas right now meet with XFL league officials. This is a big meeting where they learn rules, staff, roster sizes and more. stay tuned
#XFL
#XFL2023
Here are the UFL practice injury reports for the teams. The Stallions will be without DeMarquis Gates for personal reasons. Michigan will be without T.J. Carter & De’Gabriel Floyd. Should find out about the Sunday games tomorrow or Saturday.
#UFL
This was poor time management by St. Louis. They should have kicked the field goal with about 30 seconds left and then go for the 4th and 12. San Antonio deserved to win this game. The Brahmas will face the Birmingham Stallions in the UFL title game.
#UFL
Some think the UFL might be the last shot for spring football in the U.S. to work. Dwayne Johnson is a big reason to have hope that it will. Read my article on
@uflsifn
with his comments regarding the league.
#UFL
St. Louis not only has the best fans in baseball, but the best fans in the XFL, according to
@ByAnthonyMiller
.
From Sports Open Line with
@MattPauleyOnAir
:
Saints backup defensive end Niko Lalos had three sacks in Sunday night's game, and coach Dennis Allen said Lalos's XFL experience this spring helped him develop as a player.
If you are asking my opinion, I think this would be awesome to see the USFL’s best team against the XFL’s best team. I hope this happens in the future.
#XFL
#USFL
The crowd in San Antonio is fantastic. What a great job they did in getting fans there. It’s loud and the fans are engaging. I love what I see there!
#XFL
#XFL2023
Jordan Ta’amu was one of the top QBs in the XFL. He protected the football and showed great mobility. He instantly becomes one of the top QBs in the USFL if not the top one.
#USFL
#USFLDraft
Per sources, Former
#XFL
standout, Quarterback Jordan Ta’amu has agreed to terms on a contract with the
#USFL
and will be one of the quarterbacks selected in tonight’s
#USFLdraft
Incomplete! Game over! Renegades win their first home game 22-20. They move to 1-0 on the season. They went 0-3 at home in 2020, but Coach Stoops wins it at home.

Quick Update:
Happy New Years everyone! I want to ring in the new year with some news. I have decided to step away from NewsHub after over 3 years of covering mainly the
@XFL2023
and
@USFL
for the site.
A special thanks to Mark Perry and the wonderful writers at
@UFLNewsHubcom
.
Key takeaways from St. Louis’ 20-18 win over Seattle last night:
1. AJ McCarron might be the best QB in the XFL.
2. Teams are 0-5 when scoring first in a game.
3. The Sea Dragons are the XFL version of the Houston Gamblers (they lose games they shouldn’t).

Again, this is cable ratings so I think they are pretty good. This is about where it’s going to be for most of the season until closer to the end of the season when they are on ABC more often.

Adrian Martinez becomes the first UFL QB this season to throw for over 300 yards in a game. What an impressive performance for him as he sits at 331 yards.
#UFL
An absolute perfect day for football here in Arlington. I’m here for
@uflsifn
covering the Defenders-Renegades game starting at noon CST. Big game for the Renegades. Must win game early in the season.
#UFL
LIFE UPDATE: it’s a long post, but one that my followers should take a minute to read over. I’m making changes and I’m excited for it! Get ready folks!
Dawg, why is it difficult for y’all to be happy for the XFL & USFL? We now have year round football, more jobs for not only players, but coaches, front office staff, people involved in social media, etc.
Both leagues can co-exist! No need for all the hating 👎🏾
I’ve been so busy that I haven’t officially announced that I have joined FanNation/Sports Illustrated as they launched their new

are reporting Landry Jones underwent an MRI as he did hurt the same knee he injured in training camp. He is expected to recover in two weeks. The team does plan to sign another quarterback with a roster exemption being granted to the team.
