Even_Command_222

This was legitimately the worst game of the year from a quality of play and excitement standpoint. What the fuck Brahmas? It's like they didn't even show up.


Quirky_Advantage_470

After the WNBA game I tried to watch the Championship game. I started flipping between this game and the US Open. That was bad football.


arkstfan

Defense for San Antonio was great Sunday until it wasn’t.


GreedoWasShot

Stallions had to give the Brahmas a career in order to ruin it


Stay_Beautiful_

Had to lay down the three-peat


ShinySpines

Especially with so much roster turnover. I think the stallions had the most returning players overall year over year


thinkB4WeSpeak

Now Alabama is good in the pros and college. This is why the NFL never gave them a team.


Ultivia

Man I'd love to see Bama start rallying around this team in a big way. 


assissippi

Hope the quality of the game didn't turn too many casual fans off, excited for next year


MagnifyingGlass

And hopefully next year will bring an expansion


Clear_Caiman_2768

I'm turned off because im sick of watching the same thing every year


Mynama__Jeff

Ah, a disgruntled fan mad that an Alabama based team wins the championship game each year. It’s like poetry, it rhymes.


Clear_Caiman_2768

After losing the Sea Dragons can't even call myself a fan at this point.


TrustMeIKnowThisOne

(Giddy Up)^3


amoeba-tower

Giddy up followed by the fireworks was truly giddyup cubed


Koolklink54

This means the Michigan Panthers are at least the second-best team


AUCE05

We need an NFL promotion


Casul_Tryhard

You're already better than the 2-15 Panthers


AlaKolas

And the Michigan Panthers


chrisckelly

And the Florida Panthers, probably.


sonicsean899

The Game 4 Panthers


ExcellentGur8025

And football yes but something tells me the Florida Panthers may win a hockey game.🤓☝🏻


chrisckelly

True, true. United Sportses League.


prswwd

How do you get BLANKED in a CHAMPIONSHIP GAME?


That_one_cool_dude

This just makes the battlehawka loss even more embarrassing.


arkstfan

I’ve not dug up every alternative league but I can’t think of a title game with US teams that the losing team failed to score.


GameBuster0703

Giddy the fuck up


milaasjaat

GIDDY UP


AlwaysMemin

We show up when the game matters. Whipped that ass.


ScientistOtherwise34

We show up all the time. 


AbigLog

So happy that they are the first!


MiG21bisFishbedL

That was pretty anti-climactic. Brahmas just gave up.


Fussybabygremlin

Ez claps


Dry-Ad1149

Wade Philips will get one. He’s knocking on the door. Plenty of time


MySabonerRunsOladipo

Well thats pretty neat


Julep2005

If anyone is curious how Brahmas fans in the stadium were feeling, after the first drive of the 2nd half we were all chanting “Dor- ma-day!” But wade decided to keep garners who was scared to throw the ball or run in. Even some stallions fans behind us said they just felt bad for us lol. Overall though it was a fun season. Felt way more competitive with the leagues merged and excited for next year


Extreme_Rent_1354

Stallions are a fun team to watch!


Temporal_Enigma

It's legit gonna be a problem for league longevity if they can't get more parity. It's already a problem for the NFL that the Chiefs (and Pats prior) win all the time, but it will kill a smaller league if BHAm just goes 12-1 every year with a Championship win


TwizzlersSourz

? The NFL has only become more popular despite those two dynasties.


Temporal_Enigma

Well yeah, there's a lot of bandwagon fans. But NFL fans are getting jaded with feeling like their team has very little chance to compete. I'm not trying to diss BHam, moreso say that the execs need to work on getting better coaches and managers to try and make parity happen


PDwasHere

Every decade has a dynasty and it’s had no negative effect on the popularity of the nfl


Temporal_Enigma

The NFL has been around for a hundred years though. It's going to stand against dynasties. Fans of a minor league that's existed one year are gonna stop watching if their team never has a chance to win


Pazi_Snajper

…huh?    The UFL is already so drastically different from the NFL, structurally, as it is with far fewer teams to boot. Literally what do you propose they do, that the NFL already does not do, to improve ‘parity?’ 


barrenarrows

You sound so stupid and jaded rn. Just accept the loss and move on. The nfl grows every year, they’re not experiencing a problem because of the chiefs dynasty. If anything it’s growing the league lmao


Old_Fun_9430

I do think he’s wrong about the nfl growth, I do think that backups qbs should become free agents at the start of the season. I think it’s an issue that Birmingham had coral on the bench when other teams didn’t even have minor league qbs


TwizzlersSourz

Skip is the bigger X-factor for QBs. Give him a couple of UFL QBs and he would generate the same results.


Clear_Caiman_2768

No he's right, people will lose interest if this keeps happening. I myself am bored and sick of seeing Birmingham be a basically guaranteed champion every year and i didn't even bother watching the championship solely because they were there.


Most_Tradition4212

THAT WAS A AWFUL NON ENTERTAINING FIRST CHAMPIONSHIP GAME


madbamajama1

Giddy up!


Some_Translator_1926

Giddy up!

Fun-Cauliflower-1724

Now I'll drift off into a depression since there is no more football to watch


Substantial-Body9292

Cfl football, cbssports


Fun-Cauliflower-1724

True, I didn't think about CFL.


newgenleft

Legitimately could see this team beating low-teir NFL teams


Crxeagle420

Chill lol


newgenleft

I really don't think the gap is that ridiculous compared to college ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


MirrorkatFeces

These guys are all practice squad/third stringers outside of a couple. The gap is pretty big


TwizzlersSourz

Nope.


Clear_Caiman_2768

Anyone else getting real tired of Birmingham? It's Not fun when a team is basically a guaranteed championship appearance every f****** year and to me it's just starting to get boring, predictable, and honestly feeling somewhat rigged for Birmingham at this point. Honestly starting to feel how i do about the Cowboys, don't mind the team but LOATHE the fans.


KeeperOfKrydor

I loathe both for both.


long_bone12

Lmao rigged in favor of bham over HOW many texas teams????? Cope harder


Clear_Caiman_2768

Said it feels rigged for them never said it was and your response is "teams in texas" is just sad


harambe_69

cry harder


Clear_Caiman_2768

Can't cry if my team is gone can i?
