They are trying to keep guys healthy for the nfl 

 

And that's fine.  But when it is a clean hit on the QB like that was, there shouldn't be flags.  NFL throws flags for breathing on QBs.

I am loving the amount of flags (or lack thereof) in this league so far.

Uniforms are hideous.  Especially the refs.

All the good colors were taken by the NFL.  Sort of like the Bad News Bears.

Never had a chance, considering they're trying to compete with the NFL and not partnering with them.

I wouldn't say that.  One benefit that they will have is that they can see what works and doesn't work for the AAF and tweak their own game.  It will all come down to their presentation and quality of the game.  As football fans, we want these leagues to succeed if only to perhaps improve the NFL in some way.

Ok? Did I imply there should’ve been a flag? I was addressing the no kickoff rule.

Before tonight, I would have disagreed. After tonight, I agree. I would have bet the AAF was the league that would fail if I had to choose just one. Now I would bet on the XFL. If the AAF can keep this up all season, they have a chance.

CFL is going to miss out on a lot of decent players also to the AAF. 

Can players play in both leagues?

There are plenty of ways to keep kickoffs safe and still make them exciting.

Go ahead- what’s the more fun alternative that doesn’t increase risk?

Especially if the AAF sends some players to the majors.  Will give them a jump on recruiting players.
