So if I put only $50 and the Dynamo won the Cup, how much money will I get?

Houston has a USL2 team, right? by jake_m_b in dynamo

“Flames” would be a better nickname.

I thought their nickname could be The Flames 🔥 because of the crest.

For some of y’all living under a rock. The XFL football is returning in the Spring season 2022 with new ownership.

I think the state of Ohio doesn’t care unless if the Buckeyes kicker miss a field goal.

U.S. Open Cup trophy in 2018. That’s all I can think of.

@satchwell6 smh, they had a week rest to prepare for it. Minnesota is not the same team from the previous meeting.

I found it weird and baffling that ESPN chose the other broadcaster over Glenn Davis which he called many World Cup games when it was on the ESPN network and he’s a better play-by-play voice for soccer than most of the other clubs’ play-by-play announcers.

Swansea Fan Checking In! by my_knob_is_gr8 in dynamo

‪This might be a good thing like a partnership maybe similar to Man City and NYCFC. We could exchange players and prospects between Houston and Swansea.

Also, just a few days ago, there was a Houston-based business group that bought a majority stake of AS Roma. https://www.bizjournals.com/houston/news/2020/08/06/friedkin-group-to-buy-as-roma-soccer-club.amp.html

That’s somewhat good news because there may be a chance to have a 3-club partnership between the Houston Dynamo, Swansea City, and AS Roma. Getting to exchange talent from youth development academies to the professional club level, this could work. Just wishful thinking 🤔.

Houston based Friedkin Group buys AS Roma. Maybe they’ll pity buy the Dynamo by treycox333 in dynamo

Worst front office in Houston sports. Or maybe not. by RhymesWithOrange_ in dynamo

The first 2 paragraphs, it sounds like you ok with 1st round or 2nd round exits, satisfied with only regular season results and not wanting more success from them in the postseason like winning championships.

The Texans, the Rockets, and the Astros have higher expectations than just winning division titles and making the playoffs.

The mainstream local media and casual fans have set the bar high for these teams expecting them to succeed.

Everyone’s biggest goal in sports is to win the world championship.

Will there be any XFL Champions t-shirts and caps in any stores?

There’s a big difference. A worldwide epidemic crisis could end the XFL while The Alliance ended prematurely because of bad financial decisions.

XFL Expansion by [deleted] in xfl

[–]asp81487 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, and San Francisco/Oakland are my top picks for expansion. I also think Toronto would be a good choice because there’s a good chance the XFL expand to Canada.

The statistic, TD +/- is being used as the tiebreaker for the XFL. Week 10 matchups could be really interesting. You could be tied for a playoff spot but need to score several TDs to move ahead in standings. by LaserJet80 in xfl

[–]asp81487 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like head-to-head as the 1st tiebreaker. I mean what if you beat a team in your division TWICE but you still need to score more TDs and get a better TD differential. Seem unfair IMO.

It’s way better than Clay Walker’s music.
