Hmmm it’s about time.

Like what? They have no NFL, NBA, NHL, or MLB franchise, so they're one behind us.
SA has literally had a team in every professional football league EXCEPT the NFL. This is yet another attempt to pass off a frosted dog turd as a piece of wedding cake.Alamodome
The Saints
Not like I'd really want the NFL here anyways when it would take $1.5 billion of corporate welfare to get a stadium built.
Didn't they just spend a bunch of money renovating the Alamodome? Still waiting for our return on that.. the Final Four, and the All-American Bowl, and the Alamo Bowl.. oh yeah and UTSA.
The presentation goes a long way. Usually you can point to something that screams out small-time with these kind of start-up leagues but everything about the game Saturday was top notch, imo. The fact that it was on CBS, the announcers, the pre-game and half-time shows, the camera work, the individuals backing the league, etc all were solid. I hope the league makes it, tbh.
I dont get why SA loves to big time what we do have instead of helping to build it up. Maybe if that was the case we could have prominent teams to call our own instead of t-shirting Austin's college team or Dallas' pro team.
Look at UCF. Large public university, in a large metro area, in a state full of talented recruits, with blue blood programs in their state, just moved up to FBS in the mid 90s, now a perennial Top 15 team and next in line to get into a Power 5 conference. Why can't that be UTSA?
For the Commanders, this shouldn't just be an NFL audition for the players. It should be one for the city as well. Look at how many cities have gotten the call up to MLS because of their strong fan support in the USL. Different leagues I know, but still it couldn't hurt for the NFL to look at us and be like "damn look how great those s are at supporting their AAF team".
Watched the game and was actually surprisingly entertained. Only time will tell if the league lasts, but it’s got a better chance than the others that have come before it imo. Wouldn’t be surprised if The AAF and the XFL merged together at some point down the line, or if the NFL bought it outright and used it as a developmental league for players (basically what it is now, only better). I’ll be keeping an eye on some games this season for sure.

Also, Johnny Manziel on the Commanders almost makes too much sense not to happen tbh. Grew up in Kerrville and went to college just a couple hours up the road from SA. He alone would sell tickets and bring notoriety to the league. And would give him the opportunity to prove he deserves a 2nd shot at the NFL. He’s under contract for the CFL for one more season but then he’s a FA. Make it happen Moose!
Yep. That's a no brainer. Is he even playing in Canadia?Also, Johnny Manziel on the Commanders almost makes too much sense not to happen tbh.

Yeah, he had mixed results but didn’t look washed up for his first few games back. Think AAF would be a good next step
It's game day, boys.
These games actually aren't terrible, obviously not on the same level as the NFL, but not bad
yeah!!It's game day, boys.
This league was already having financial problems after week 1 and couldnt make payroll on time.
Won't happen again with the new alpha, billionaire chairman, tbh.This league was already having financial problems after week 1 and couldnt make payroll on time.
Our QB sucks tbh. But so do the QB’s for pretty much all these teams, minus Garrett Gilbert of the Apollos. QB play is def the most noticeable dropoff from the NFL. Lots of bad QB play.
FkLA my boy get in here
yeah come home, Football!
Can't wait to bust out my throwback Browns #2 Football jersey.
