zow2 Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 I like the kickoff thing. It will eliminate dumb Offside and blocks in the back too. It’s easy for the guys to stay still because they can all see when the opponent touches the ball. 1

I don't wanna say they stole my idea, but they stole my idea. I wish I could find that post It was a brilliant idea! Better than eliminating them altogether.

zow2 Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 There’s already more hits leading with the helmet
Real McClappy Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 Damn nice throw and catch for TD. Impressed thus far.
Steptide Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 This league is already 100% better than the aaf 2

The first go round the XFL was a response to the NFL's actions to make the game less violent, eliminate celebrations, and a move away from controversial rule changes. this time around the value prop seems to be different rules and a 2 hour game. The current iteration of the XFL offers solutions to non-existent problems. Of all the NFL rules, no one gives a ***** about the PAT. No one is asking for 2 forward passes. No one is asking for shorter time spent in front of the TV and less time at a bar away from their wife and kids. So less talent, teams with no history, and slightly different rules? Sign me up. They aren't even attempting to lure players away from the NFL so I doubt the long-term plan is to compete. Is this purely a financial play to bank on insatiable demand for football 12 months a year? I would think best case scenario is they get adopted as the NFL development league or farm system. What am I missing? end game for anything mcmahon does is to make money for mcmahon. Ideally, make money and earn accolades along with it. best way to do that you already alluded to - become a viable “G League” for the NFL that people will watch and strike up the consequent partnerships with the NFL. You ain’t missing anything.

Seems like each team will have a core of good fans in their local areas 1

Having football on until April would be awesome. 1 1
Rc2catch Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 Also, kinda petty but I really like the Seattle helmets with the dragon on there. Looks pretty cool 1

Mountain Man Posted February 8, 2020 Posted February 8, 2020 (edited) How many times are the refs going to let defensive offside go and not call it? Its almost as if the refs aren't watching the game Edited February 8, 2020 by Mountain Man
