So the announcers during the Appolo game just said Johnny Manziel signed with the AAF. What team should be interesting.

They said it'll be waivers, so it'll just deoend on who claims him

Color me surprised. 

 

I thought Johnny Football would take a bigger pay day with the XFL next year. I guess it's possible he still could ...

 

If he wants to get serious about taking another crack at the NFL, the AAF is the spot.

Who’s next?  Chad Kelly?

When they made the Johnny Manziel announcement last night I immediately turned to Hubby and said I was surprised Chad Kelly wasn't playing.  I would not be surprised to see him there in the future.  Maybe he is waiting for his legal troubles to be settled?

Impressive atmosphere at San Antonio tonight. Also, Cyril Richardson in action for the Commanders.

I can’t for the life of me figure out why San Antonio only has one big 5 team (NHL, NFL, MLB, MLS, NBA). 7th largest city in the country, and one hour away from the 11th largest city (Austin), which has ZERO big 5 teams. They come out in droves to support the Spurs of the NBA and support the Rampage of the AHL well. They have the Alamodome with a capacity of around 70k in the heart of the city which is sitting unused, other than the alliance now. At the absolute least, they should have an MLS team.

Because major league sports is a cartel with existing franchises in Dallas and Houston.  Putting a team in San Antonio or Austin would cut into the market of an existing cartel member.

If I remember when the Raiders were on the annual blackmail cities the Alamodome wasn't good enough for them and they wanted a new one built. Looks pretty good tonight

It’s definitely a bit dated. But I think a facelift would be pretty economical. The location of it is absolutely stellar. Literally a 5 minute walk from the river walk. The river walk contains as many bars and restaurants as you can imagine. Completely perfect for a downtown stadium/arena.

Oh for sure. But even if a brand new stadium needed to be constructed. I just can’t believe no major sports owner or prospective owner hasn’t tried to enter the 7th biggest city in the country.
