AJ Smith is a good OC

The live game center for updated stats is 100% better than it was for the XFL last year:

Chase Garbers is playing well....another example of football players doing really well when they no longer have Josh McDaniels as head coach.

Alamodome, the Defenders house of horrors

Escaped after blowing 19-3 lead
XFL Championship
Down 14-3

If the league expands to 12 or 16 next year, I think DC might lobby for SA to be put in another div/conf so they don't have to go there

[GregParks]

Much-needed turnover by Defenders there.

Again, the ESPN broadcast is tight. Going to Blandino to explain the penalty. Then going to Ray for his thoughts on the call. I love it.

Good crowd great game! Noisy here in the dome.

Matt McCrane could afford to be on call this summer

That said ESPN's whiffed on some player ages. They had McCrane at 31, he turns 30 in September

[GregParks]

Well the league certainly should have its share of mainstream sports highlights already this weekend.

MAYHEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And this all thanks to Reggie Barlow icing Deestroying
