>> UFL season comes to an emotional end for Battlehawks quarterback AJ McCarron

McCarron said there were two reasons he kept playing with the injury.“Having my boys in here, one about them,” McCarron said, “trying to show them you got to be able to push through (expletive), especially at a young age. As a kid, they slide into second, skin their knee up, the first thing they want to do is, ‘Oh, my knee.’ I know, especially my oldest right here, he likes to exaggerate a lot of injuries, so trying to show him: Hey, you got to push through it.

McCarron said he also kept playing for the league and its players.  <<

>>As St. Louis prepares to host the UFL Championship this weekend, sans the hometown Battlehawks squad that drew record-breaking crowds, attendance remains a big wild card.Tens of thousands consistently packed the Dome at America’s Center this spring to support the St. Louis Battlehawks, who drew a spring football record of 40,000-plus fans in their April home opener and nearly three times the league average in home games.Matching that standard for Sunday’s UFL Championship in St. Louis may prove challenging.  <<

>>  “We know we have a great challenge with San Antonio,” Birmingham coach Skip Holtz said. “I think our players are really excited. If they could have picked one team to be in it, I think it’s San Antonio because it’s the only blemish on our record, and it’s not very often in sports that when you lose a game you get a do-over. And so to have the do-over, I think, is really exciting for our players. I think they’re really excited about this opportunity. Not only is it for the championship, but it’s against our only blemish, so I think there’s going to be a lot of emotion in this game, I think there’ll be a lot of excitement with great respect for San Antonio on the field.” <<

>>Whatever the result of Sunday’s game, Phillips has indicated he would like to return next season.

“I understand my age is a factor, but as long as I’m healthy and can contribute, which I think I have. I don’t set a time limit, but I get older every day. I know that,” he said. <<
