Very curious on how choosing large markets and large stadiums will affect revenue

I thought the kickoff rule was interesting. I could see the NFL adopting some sort of version of that. I also liked the that you could go for 1,2 or 3 on the extra point. It was kinda fun to watch. Torch I'll go with the under.

why on Earth anyone would put another football team in LA is beyond me
think it would have been smarter to play in markets without pro-football that were more regional

I think playing a straight 10 week schedule is good. But no need for semifinals, just go straight to the championship

In watching couple games tackling and blocking are suspect, at best. Not many penalties called except in last game which happened to be officiated by an sec crew, according to the announcers LOL

why on Earth anyone would put another football team in LA is beyond me and what's beyond me is why they give any of their teams, much less the LA one, the ridiculously generic name of "Wildcats" |

Surprised there was not a team in Phoenix or San Diego.
I think the XFL just wants presence in the 2 largest markets.

I think I speak for the entire forum when I say that I hope the XFL sticks just so I can keep watching 12 Gauge play football.

Cardale Jones benched. After going 2-0 he throws 4 INTs in a horrible loss in the third game, then DC gets blown out in the 4th game. Today he threw an INT on DC's 2nd drive and was pulled. Cardale leads the league with 7 INTs. |

and the backup who came in lead the team to a win as well, against an STL team that came in 3-1
There was also a controversy in the Seattle @ Houston game yesterday, where the refs missed the fact that a 4th down kneel down happened with 2 secs left. It should have been Seattle ball for one play near the red zone down by 9 (a one possession game in this league), but the clock ran out, the refs left the field, and the replay guy admitted to the ABC crew that he knew there was time left, but that the game had been declared over and they were going to do nothing about it. Today the XFL admitted the mistake and reassigned the director of officials who oversaw that game.

Nice to see they are still paying the players their base salary for the balance of the season

How many XFL players will make an NFL roster this season? PJ Walker is the only one I've seen thus far
