So basically you buy a ticket and you simply are supporting not your team but the Rock.  Hard to have any real feeling for it.  Thanks for the info

It’s just for this season, apparently.  Everything got started so late that they did what was easiest.

More like cheapest. But yes if the league has some success they’d probably go back to having true home markets.

It does make the Battlehawks feel less like St. Louis’s team with no one local on the ground pushing the product.

It is still, preferable to the USFL playing all their games in one city and being a purely tv product.

Yeah it’s kind of a bummer.

Part of a reason the Battlehawks did so well last time is because they became so involved in the community. 
You saw players at different charity events and local media did a great job introducing you to the players. 
Hopefully next year it can be more of a home team.

I am cool with it as long as they do bring it back local next season. Investors needed lower risk to prove the league can make it more than one season.
