AAF folded because they ran out of money. Vince McMahon has 500 million dollars invested in the league.

No it's not. It's not gonna have the WWE feel to it like the previous one. It's gonna attempt to be a true football league and not focus on crude entertainment.
There's a list of the rules on their wiki.

That's is the main reason why companies fold ..... they run out of money

When the XFL launches after the Super Bowl, ESPN's networks will air two games per week. Steve Levy and Greg McElroy will call the top ESPN game, with Tom Hart, Pat McAfee and Joey Galloway on the second team. https://t.co/o4Vt5KkPj9

How much $s does it take to set up a Gumby league? They don't pay NFL salaries, I guess they just rent playing fields, so how are they planning on blowing 700 million?

Pat is perfect For it
Also I feel like they should've maybe waited 2 weeks after the bowl. So fans can miss football for a second

I dont think that football is that popular out of markets like it used to be. Mnf and Snf have taken big rating hits. Those used to appeal to the casual fan as well, they dont as much anymore. Dozens of flags each game, lack of good hits, and commercials every 2 min have been turning people off.
Imo, xfl will have a hard time even cracking 1.0 ratings, i wouldn't be surprised if by week 4 they are getting just a 100k viewers.
