Asked about the crowd affecting the team and McCarron, Anthony Becht said:

"He's been doing it his whole life. He played in front of 100-plus thousand fans. He can do it in front of 10 (thousand) or 12 (thousand), and most of them are cheering for him."

No, Anthony, "most" of them were not cheering for your quarterback.

WE OWN THE BIRDBRAINS

BE THERE! GIDDY UP!!!!!

It's going to be a beautiful afternoon for football! Sunny and high in the mid 70's!!

I had a blast being seated behind the goalposts at the home opener, and with most of the side spots taken for the Battlehawks game, will they open the stands behind the endzone on Ticketmaster? I'd love to sit there again.

GIDDY UP!!!!!

UFL USFL conference standings

1. Stallions 5-0

2. Panthers 3-2

3. Showboats 1-4

4. Roughnecks 1-4

Stallions travel to Memphis this week and Roughnecks travel to St. Louis. If the Stallions and Battlehawks win. Stallions clinch a playoff spot.

Possible week 6 standings

1. Stallions 6-0

2. Panthers 4-2 or 3-3

3. Showboats 1-5

4. Roughnecks 1-5

With 4 weeks left the Stallions would not finish less than 2nd place if they loss out.

Giddy up!

Never been to a Birmingham Stallions game and considering on going to the May 18th game but was wanting to know any tips on tickets or experiences I may need to do. Never been to a game at Protective Stadium either.

Martinez had another dominating performance tonight.

You would have to think that perhaps he's locked in QB1 for the rest of the season considering the Stallions still have games with the top two teams in the XFL Conference (home vs. St. Louis and at San Antonio).
