Spring football is a weird beast. You either tune it out entirely or you go all the way in, and the UFL on FOX has quietly become the kind of background noise that turns into appointment viewing if you let it. Marty Mush let it.
Marty makes it official from the couch.
If you're going to ride with anyone in this league, the Battlehawks are the move. St. Louis turned their home games into the loudest building in spring football basically the second the league relaunched, and the bandwagon has room. Marty isn't even trying to play it cool about the broadcast either.

While Marty does the fan thing, the gambling side of the operation is still treating this league like a real card. Rico Bo$co is back with another week of UFL picks, which has actually been one of the more underrated content runs of the spring.

And if the early action is any indication, betting these games has been live. The Buffalo broadcast already gave us a beatdown worth tuning in for, the kind of lopsided game that either makes your slip or torches it.

That's the whole UFL pitch in a nutshell right now. One half of the building is locking in picks like it's a real season, the other half just adopted a team and is yelling at FOX graphics on a Friday night. Both are correct. The league only works if people actually care, and right now, at Barstool, they do.
