Just turned on the XFL.
Kicker missed a field goal and they immediately interviewed him on the sideline asking what happened haha.
That's tough.

Mildly entertaining.

Someone should start a poll as to whom the zone supports so we are all on the same page.

(I'm too lazy to start a poll)

And, will it last a whole season?

I bought a Dallas renegades shirt, feel so dirty because the Dallas part

"VINCE HAS EARMARKED $300 MILLION AND THAT'S GOING TO GET THEM THROUGH 2.5 SEASONS AND HE'LL PUT UP MORE LATER," SAID DAVE MELTZER. "THE WAY THIS WHOLE THING IS STRUCTURED IS VINCE IS PROBABLY GOING TO LOSE ABOUT $375 MILLION OVER THE NEXT 3 YEARS ON THIS LEAGUE AND HE WILL AND HE KNOWS AND THAT'S WHAT HE'S GOING TO DO."

"THEN AT THE END OF THOSE 3 YEARS, THE IDEA IS HE'LL BE ABLE TO GET TELEVISION DEALS THAT WILL TOTAL OVER $125 MILLION A YEAR WHICH WOULD COVER HIS LOSSES AND THEN HE'S OKAY. THERE'S A LOT OF FACTORS INVOLVED IN THAT AND AGAIN, THE RATINGS ARE ONE OF THEM. IF THESE STATIONS FEEL THAT IT'S VALUABLE ENOUGH TO PAY THAT MUCH, IT'S NOT AS LONG A SHOT AS EVERYONE THINKS."

I just copied that off the internet, not sure why it's in all caps.

That is definitely my favorite logo and I chose their flair on the XFL reddit lol but not happy about it. Hopefully a version of the Demons comes back to Norcal if they expand.

Guess it means that Moon wrote it?

Have to say, not convinced about him getting his money back. Product and presentation will have to improve. A lot. Right now I suspect their rosters will be plundered by the NFL of anyone worth having.

We'll see. Can but hope.

Their kickoffs are brilliant. Mad props to whoever came up with that. The NFL will 100% adopt that.

Product is probably the best I've seen of any expansion league in week one

It definitely is. I have a good feeling about this as long as Vince is committed to spending the money. The CFL seems to do well and we don't really get much talent from them. NFL is the best of the best but there are still a s**tload of good players out there to make a competitive smallish league imo. Hoping for the best and this can be a nice bridge to hold us over to NFL training camps etc.

I LOVE THE HOT MICS.

refs have open mics as well so you can hear what they are discussing. Need some more stars like maybe an AB or ex criminals trying to turn it around. Gordon?
