The Mexican league kicks off its 2023 season today. This year, they are up to 10 teams, I think. AFAK, though, there are no more Canadians on the rosters, though lots of American NCAA grads.
I believe games will be streamed on Facebook and Youtube.

Former Edmonton Elks receiver Diego Viamontes wears #89 for the Dinos. Love that they are broadcasting all the games on YouTube for us - enjoyed that first Dinos-Raptors game!

LFA is much different now than when they first started. Before, everybody had a Mexican surname and went to University in that country. Now, teams are each allowed 12 foreign players. One of the teams has former NFL players QB Trevone Boykin and WR Terrance Williams in their starting lineup.

Exciting finish to the Dinos-Jefes game; Seemed like the Dinos were running away with it, but full marks to the Jefes executing an onside kick and ensuing TD/2pt convert to pull within 4. Not sure why they bothered strategically with the 2pt though? Down by 4 or down by 5, they still needed a TD to end the game. Either way, Medina pulls in the second onside kick and the home team wins it.

Games in the LFA would be better if extra point and field goal attempts were not an adventure so often.

Being able to watch the games on YouTube is pretty cool. It'd be even better if I knew more than 5-6 words in Spanish.

I have been watching the games and some are very entertaining, but I see that there is not much fan support.
about the spanish, well some game we can be on youtube and I can do some translations in the real time chat
the next Monday night game I think will be very good, Dinos vs Fundidores.
also Reds vs Galgos were a good game
