Guess I'm just an optimist in thinking there is a route where the NFL, XFL and NCAA all benefit in a world where Maurice Clarett types bypass college to get paid in the XFL, the NFL (theoretically) gets more polished professional players who don't have to worry about college-related distractions and the NCAA eventually doesn't need the ridiculous "illegal" recruiting gambits in order to stay relevant.

I haven't been paying much attention. I was kinda bummed the AAF didn't take off because I enjoyed watching the Orlando Apollos (their offence was really fun to watch, much like the Chiefs). I think that kind of killed my interest in the XFL. I hope it succeeds though.

Is the XFL going to have something like a Super Bowl? Do we know what it's called yet? Playoff format?

I think the XFL should hire Art Schlichter after he is released from prison this August so he can be the XFL's gambling advice man "expert" for next season.

Just like the college football format. Top two teams in each conference go into the playoffs so a total of 4 and they play each other and winner of each game moves onto the championship

Wildcats got their first win today! Hell yeah! Decisive win over a 2-0 DC team. Hope they can carry the momentum forward.

Watched an entire game. It really wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Not sure the long term appeal with these scrubs tough. Every team should have been in cities without an Nfl team though.

I think the XFL thought that the AAF would of not collapsed in less than a season so didn't chose markets, outside St. Louis, without NFL teams. Now, that the AAF collapsed I could see them looking at Orlando, Portland, Raleigh-Durham, San Diego, Montgomery\Birmingham, and Sacramento as expansion areas if they chose too.
San Antonio would of been great too if there weren't teams in Dallas and Houston. |
