I'm going with St. Louis, since I grew up there and still live in Missouri.

XFL HOUSTON ... Really hoping Johnny Football gets one more shot.

Was a huge fan of the Xtreme. Regardless of what the new team's name will be, I've been waiting 18 years to defend this title.

Rooting for NY because that’s my home but I must admit that LA is an easy team to root for.

Waiting for these team names and logos since I live in Indy. I do like Dallas the best right now though.

I think I'd enjoy them if they hadn't stolen the Rams and if Moss hadn't called us out. I'm happy to think of them as rivals.

If they were playing in NYC I'd be all for the NY team but I can't get excited about anyone who plays in NJ. My team will be whichever one is most fun and is on my tv.

It’s kind of strange because I am rooting for the league overall to do well. I want to see every market do well. Is it possible to root for all 8 teams?

It’s different than being a Jets fan, where I don’t have to worry about other teams doing well in the hopes that the NFL survives. As a Jets fan. I only care about my team, and while I respect the other NFL teams. I have no rooting interest in their success.

I am covering XFL NY for the site, so I may lean in that direction. When you get close to a team and cover it like I did back in 2001. It’s hard not to root for that team on some level.

Well, obviously I want every team to present a good product and succeed on some level. Ideally, there should be no winless teams, and every team should be able to be competent, but I'm still rooting for St. Louis to be the best team.
