    The spring league is like the FCS version of college football it's fun it's intimate and it's a good deal

    I was a Sea Dragons and Breakers fan, now I am a Defenders and Showboats fan until those teams return some year down the road

      The Defenders are a fun team to watch and have a great fanbase.

      Im almost certain that if/when the league becomes more profitable they will look to expand those teams back into the mix. Seattle especially, was just too far of an isolated location that made it less cost effective to send multiple teams there every week. Most teams are in or near the Texas region, Michigan and DC being the exceptions, which will cut down travel costs and help with the league creating that profitable base for the future.

    I’m a KU Jayhawk fan at heart… BUT you’re telling ME there’s MORE football in the Spring and I can cheer for a team called the BATTLEHAWKS!?!? 😮 COUNT ME IN!

    I’m a big Stallions fan, I have a season ticket for this season and it only cost me $140. Everything g you have said is true, the friends I’ve made from strangers, the excitement and experience is amazing. Since it is so affordable I was able to go to Memphis and Canton last season to watch the Stallions play. I know Birmingham doesn’t have the highest attendance but I’d love to see you there and if so come to section 104. That’s where all us crazy fans sit.

    You forgot Brandon Aubrey on the stallions. He played for the cowboys this past season and was playing at a pro bowl level. Also I’m a stallions and battle hawks fan since both leagues started back.

    I absolutely love this video because I’m very happy to see the word about spring leagues getting out. That being said, I know you are an XFL fan, but I was disappointed as a fan of a USFL team that the USFL wasn’t talked about more. Also, as a stallion fan… Matt corral is not starting for us. Hate to burst your bubble. 99 times out of 100 he is backing up Jaymar Smith.

    • @EmbracetheGrind
      @EmbracetheGrind  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I’m sorry about not focusing as much on the usfl. I just wanted to talk more about my personal experience and I have more of a background in the xfl. I know Smith is probably starting bc of the history in the offense I just mentioned the corral stuff bc it shows how people would rather play in a spring league then sit on a practice squad. Hoping to get down to a stallions game this year though!

    3 things I hope they bring back eventually (other than teams):
    1. Booze waiting in the locker room for the winning team (bud light seltzer 2020)
    2. The XFL kickoff rules
    3. On field interviews of players like they did in 2020

    As far as I'm concerned the NFL doesn't have the umph it used to . With it's limited stars , bad reffing and the kneeling BS along with Cappernacks BS , alot of old school fans aren't fans anymore . The UFL has brought back what the game of football is about without the focus being on a Hollywood hook up (Swift/Kelsey) for better ratings which to me was a DESPERATE reach for fans . Well NFL , good , ya got swifty fans who don't know a gd thing about football . The smart fans are now on board with the UFL . The Colts will always be my favorite NFL team but the Battlehawks have my attention.

    For the USFL, I rooted for the Panthers because I'm from Michigan and a Lions fan. For the XFL I rooted for the Brahmas because that's where my grandpa lived. I'll root for both but in a head to head I'm going Panthers all the way.
