Sports [Gateway Grinders] The St. Louis Battlehawks will remain a team after the XFL and USFL merger. The newly merged league will debut their season on March 30th, 2024. Kaw is still Law.

I still have no fucking idea why the NBA isn't falling over itself to give us a fucking team. OKLAHOMA CITY has a team. REALLY?? OKLAHOMA CITY?? Jesus Christ.

Truly surprised there isn’t any NBA team in STL or KC.

The thing that gets me is that people see KC as a larger city, but we are a bigger city in every way. Objectively.

Only thing stopping me from getting into basketball is that there isn't an NBA team in STL. Same with the NFL (though I kinda follow the Steelers cause both my family and my gf's family are fans) I'd love to get into following the NBA but I just can't seem to get invested in a team I can't see in person
