We almost have to have San Antonio/Vegas Week 1 Saturday at 3:00 on ABC at this point.

The two Steeler legends
Theme tie-in with VGK vs TB on ESPN that night
Kickoff to SB LVIII
And of course, marketing

Just don't have Dennis Parks (as Greg Bartholomew) do O Canada--thankfully there aren't any Canadian teams

I liked the Outlaws but Vegas Vipers sounds pretty damn good.

According to what I could see from the limited team site....the limey green won't make the move from Tampa. It will be Red and white.

I will agree with what Mike Mitchell said on the Markcast that if the XFL announces something, it will be through them. He was skeptical that the team names, colors and logos would have been announced last week even without Hurricane Ian because the XFL didn't announce it themselves.

They better hurry up with announcing USFL announcements felt rushed when they started at around 5 1/2 months before the season, we’re around 4 months rn. If they wait much longer the marketing is gonna feel really rushed and I wonder what the effect on ticket sales will be

Woodson had been purposely vague with his "next week" statement. It is not like he had set a date and it whooshed by. We likely would have seen some sort of tease from the owners' social media earlier in the week leading up to the announcement of the names. But Ian was already beginning to impact Florida the weekend before. It wouldn't surprise me IF there had indeed been a plan to confirm the names.
