Hard to believe. That’s impressive considering Blues won the Cup last year.

They are on a 5 game losing streak and have had significant injuries to top players. Not a ton going right at this moment for them.

With all that said we were playing Nashville a division rival, who would usually be a more enjoyable game to watch and draw better

Two things

Blues are on a skid right now

but, we also love football and were hurting without it. So not too surprised.

The lower bowl is sold out for Sunday, thats at 28k. Suites are filling up, which is said to put us at around 37k for the game. Many fans are pissed because tickets were going for $90, and they wouldn't open up and more seating. it'll be a packed 37k could easily have gone much much higher.

indeed. Cant wait. It'll be so nice to tailgate again.

I have a feeling we're gonna be seeing some old Rams players at a game or two. Chris Long and James laurinaitis have been following the Battlehawks. Could see Faulk, Holt or Bruce showing up

Wait a second. I thought the “STL is only a baseball city”? So that ignorant narrative can finally die?

I do wonder if the NFL is keeping an eye on St Louis with the chargers.

I heard Chargers sponsorship deals will keep them in LA for the next decade. And Spanos seemingly doesn’t like the Midwest.

This is surprising. Hockey is horrible sport to watch on TV. Still better than watching XFL trash though

We'll see how it shakes up, but when the discussion first came up months ago, it was said the NFL may try and make him sell it.

I imagine St. Louis has some pent-up pro football demand.

Still interesting.

Battle hawks were undefeated and on a roll to the championship, Blues are losing and not going anywhere

Roughnecks won the game on Sunday.

A great game to watch. Did not hear trash cans banging.

Did they add the Fox Midwest crowd to that 3.1?

Football on Fox Hockey on NBCSN. So not really surprised

Stadium is a dump and was outdated the day it opened.

Only for League that plays at Birmingham, AL. That is not a realistic place to set up a team there with small population. St. Louis is one of the biggest get for the XFL because St. Louis hated NFL and we are still missing pro football. The next thing to do is to expand but got to be careful where to expand. Not a whole lot of places that would fit for new teams.
