Out for breakfast with the TVs on ESPN: Hakeem Butler joining Sportscenter shortly and the hosts talking about the game. This is the kind of coverage of the league you love to see, legitimizing the UFL in the eyes of the casual sports fan.

Is the audio screwed up - not hearing voices on streaming but hearing the music and back ground

Monaco doing plenty of GP's favorite college (and some former team) mention, I see where it gets annoying (again)

DC already off to a way better start than they were three weeks ago. Of course no AJ, Peezy, or Ateman helps--but it is what it is.

Need a good game here

No NHL/NBA competition

Need a DC win to keep the XFL interesting

Manny Wilkins just wants to run the ball right now. Wait for it, once he establishes that fact, he will start to find the open man.

Wilkins reaching out to the first down marker is pretty awesome.
