Hear from Coach Woodson about the Fake Field Goal decision kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqTFqKKZo92Ei6M

[@sgtmorhew]

heres hoping for an expansion next season, north, central and south divisions. Send teams to San Diego, Portland, Boise and Columbus

[@MrComfyAustralia]

Man I am an Aussie and wow this is faster and better than the NFL

That fake punt call was what saved this game for STL. What a great call.

[@oleeb]

It was perfectly executed!🎉🎉🎉

[@Nitro_Joe]

The BOOS were so loud! Everybody around us was screaming that the Hawks had to go for it on 4th down. Then we immediately cheered when we saw the pass! The place was shaking after he touched the pylon! Felt like the early 2000’s again!

[@chevalier3]

And also the inexplicable fake punt that the Vipers did when they should have just run it in

[@frankym69]

This is going to be the very first milestone moment to put this league on the map if st. Louis can win the title. St. Louis is the hottest team in the league!

[@Compucles]

@@frankym69 No, the *first* milestone moment was the unbelievable comeback the Battlehawks pulled off in Week 1.

[@megancoffey5994]

Please keep the XFL going for at least 10 years

[@GeorgeWashingtonX]

yes.. It's good game play. And it's nice that they're not beating fans over the head with political messaging (like the NFL does now). peace

[@asap472]

​@GeorgeWashingtonX social messaging not political messaging.

[@highjack420]

​@@asap472 its political. Either way its one sided liberal bs

[@philiphughes8496]

How about forever, baby!

[@GeorgeWashingtonX]

@@asap472 hi.. The voter mobilization campaign the NFL advertises is political. The NFL's celebration of Hispanic Heritage month is ethnocentric politics. The NFL's celebration of American militarism is political. Covering their endzones, helmets, and field goals in messaging about ending racism is more social, than political, so I'll agree with you on that. My point is, I wanna watch football, not be propagandized on political and/or social issues. So I'm grateful to the XFL (so far) for sticking to sports entertainment. peace.

[@derfvcderfvc8714]

It's like a combination of Hockey shootouts and College Football overtime

[@Liquidsunn87]

It's so 🔥 very cool and unique way of doing overtime and it's easy to understand.

[@K1SH1RYU]

​@@Liquidsunn87 agreed

[@Ramboost007]

I think they mentioned that their inspiration was soccer penalty shootouts.

[@editsbytiZZ]

As a St Louis native, no football game I’ve been to live has ever made me as passionate as today’s game

[@jaylonbanks2604]

Man. I just love the STL crowd

[@Nitro_Joe]

I know the NFL doesn’t have script writers; however, the St. Louis Battlehawks? Come On Man! Decided on a whim to take the wife and two youngest since they’ve never been to the Dome. Perfect game for them!

[@javianjohnson8746]

Wow. So this is only like my 2nd time watching a XFL game, so a couple things stood out to me: 1. Wow, that St. Louis crowd is AMAZINGLY LOUD! Its like the Arrowhead of the XFL (makes sense, since both teams are in Missouri) 2. The OT rule the XFL has in place is so incredibly genius. I love how each team gets one shot per round to get into the endzone, and what I love just as much is if the offense commits a penalty (like the P.I. in this game) they lose their turn. If the XFL can had a solid 5 year run, I truly believe they can gain a lot more popularity and be a viable option of football during the NFL offseason.

[@elijahpatterson2596]

What a game. If the Cardinals can win tonight, this will be a good sports day for St. Lou.

[@gregpaspatis9425]

@Elijah Patterson Not so interested in what the St. Louis Blues fare in Minnesota or St. Louis City SC going into the belly of the beast to face the Seattle Sounders and their rabid supporters?

[@stlucky36]

Get a City, Blues and Cards win and go for the StL Sweep

dam! the vipers closed out the season with heart! won't be in the playoffs but helped the league a whole lot.

One thing I noticed about this game was the PHYSICALITY!! Omg they were hitting hard ! And the refs let them play! Love it

[@Kayluv101]

I hope other teams eventually get fans like this.. I want the XFL to become bigger than the NFL so bad lol

[@foxwolf316]

well if there better than any other division this year, keep this in mine, after the XFL champion ends in mid may, the USFL will also do there 10 weeks in the summer, so who knows what the ratings are gonna be when the year is over.

[@quentinvoqalgray3981]

@@mike48931 they would get sued

It would help if they had more teams in cities like St. Louis and San Antonio that don't have to compete with the NFL.

​@@foxwolf316 its the first week of May basically. Not mid may

[@Kayluv101]

@@mike48931 I disagree I think If the XFL allows players to join straight out of high school or while in high school the XFL could become bigger than the NFL and college..I kinda think that’s the only way for the XFL to surpass the NFL viewership wise..

I LOVE THE XFL!!!

amazing game by my battlehawks

[@larryloveless2967]

The XFL shootout is amazing. Similarity to the NHL hockey shootout. My son and his wife went to see the game and could not believe the crowd noise ike back in the days of Kurt Warner, Isaac Bruce, Marshall Faulk and Tori Holt at The Dome. He said the place shook. Very large tailgating crowd. They even pulled out a win like that STL Rams team. I do hope though AJ Mc Carron is able to return to finsih the season.. Go Battle Hawks! 1

It’s unfortunate Vegas didn’t get a handling until the end of the season, it was their qb. Can we PLEASE keep this going. I’d love to see Rod Woodson a coach of the Vipers next year to show everyone what’s up.

[@38kal]

This crowd was rocking.. Hopefully that light a match under the other teams fanbases.

[@muzikdude1188]

St. Louis had its NFL team forcefully ripped from them and the league blamed it all on the city and its fans. This is a fanbase with a chip on its shoulder and something to prove. Not the case in other XFL cities.

[@jagchuk]

I had no idea who @Deestroying was (my son did) he was poised and seems like a nice guy but to my delight he had a tough time due to the NOISE!!! People are noticing the Battlehawks!

[@wildwine6400]

Geez that was a nail biter at the end. Love that the Battlehawks used a fake against the Vipers after they used one earlier 💪

The thumbnails on these XFL highlights always give away the winner…as it’s always a picture of a player from the winning team

The XFL championship should’ve been slated for St. Louis and not San Antonio… St. Louis had already proved themselves during the 2020 version of the XFL! Because you KNOW that if St. Louis makes the championship and it was held in the dome, the upper bowl would’ve been opened, and the WHOLE place would sellout!
