Having Seattle there is interesting. It leads me to think that there could be another Western based team in 2025

It looks like a football to me. Not sure if it will say UFL or NSFL or something like the mockup I made.

OH ok i see it. I was thinking the black "<" could be back to back kinda like "><" making a new "X". But I like the FB shape instead.

Let's Roll!!!

Tomorrow will be the day we've been waiting for... for way too long.

Expecting tomorrow's announcement to mainly focus on the merger itself, introducing the #UFL (United Football League) brand.

Finalization of teams & overall structure to likely come during the week, potentially Monday per @ByMikeMitchell.

Kicking off the new year with a bang. #USFL #XFL

While tomorrow's announcement isn't likely to hold much else other than the new league name & official merger acknowledgement, here's a couple of things I've heard, per sources:

- #UFL Championship game currently set for June 15th (hearing St. Louis...not confirmed quite yet)
- The Houston franchise, interestingly enough, should be branded as the Roughnecks, but will feature the Gamblers players/coaches/staff
- Daryl Johnston (#USFL President) will retain a role in the UFL, expected to fill the hole that Marc Ross (EVP, Football Ops) left the #XFL with a couple of months ago
- First dispersal draft is now tentatively set for January 5th

As always, given the fluidity of this situation up until this point, things can still technically change until the league(s) make things official. Not everything will be announced tomorrow, as the 8 finalized teams may not come until later this week.

Please be serious y'all. It's not indicative of anything, it's just the XFL using all of its accounts at its disposal to maximize the reach of the announcement.
