Plus, it's nothing on weekends around this time. Nothing. I can't watch Golf for a long period.
March Madness is right around the corner...

Yeah, that is an odd take. You hear people say things like that about soccer and WNBA too. Those are both boring to me but I still think it's cool that they exist and some people enjoy them.

A quick death is what is needed.
I appreciate your enthusiasm along with the others in here, and I'm not trying to be the fly in the ointment, but I'm a realist. All the commitments, all the financial structuring in the world don't amount to a hill of beans if people aren't watching. Once the glow fades from this shiny new toy, the league will need to rely on way more than the relatively few diehard, 365 days a year football fanatics. That's where the real challenge lies.
The XFL has to battle for viewership against the accurate perception that it's attempting to be considered a major sports league with minor league talent, against the onset of the baseball season, and against the peak following of the NBA & NHL as these two leagues approach their respective playoffs. That's simply too much uphill for an upstart league that will need as much downhill momentum as it can muster.
I'm not hear to make sense of it. I'll leave that up to the apologists.
I'm here to hope it dies a quick death.
and with 8 teams to start out with if it DOES stick i'm curious if and when they do expansion...
I watched two games, boring the talent is sub par so they try to make up for it glitter and glam. I tried but I'll pass. tp me it was like watching a bad college game say, Slippery Rock vs Old Dominion
Hartford
Oh no...you're not going to spam the XFL threads like you did the AAF threads, are you?
Cmon guys this league is a joke, it's a money grab at best. Not sure what you all so that has people so enamored with this but I saw sub par athletes playing sub par football. It's a gimmick! I won't watch it because watching it will help ratings and to be honest I would rather watch re-runs of the Brady Bunch then this crap.
Right now hockey is at it's peak, basketball both college and pro. These are much better products then that abortion I watched this weekend.
You are a moron! How am I effecting your ability to watch this? Have I cut off your cable? Did I hide the remote? Stupid just stupid.So the answer is obviously, "yes, I will spam all XFL threads! I refuse to allow anyone to enjoy anything that I don't approve of!!"
One I did not spam the AAF thread, and two how are one or two posts spam? Jesus man this it what you come at me with? Go away child.
Bring back the Breakers! They had the baddest-assed uniforms
