I think that would not work. There just isn't enough interest for a new league on the weekdays. Not sure they could get a decent crowd at the game.All of these start up football leagues start their season after the NFL season. I think they should rethink this model and instead have their season during actual football season, but just schedule their games for the weekdays.
Think about it....Sure NFL has MNF, but MNF has sucked for 10+ years. They have Thursday night and that is a hit or miss...So if the XFL scheduled their games on Tuesday, Wednesday and occasionally Thursday and a Friday they may get more viewers and more interest. I know I tune into MAC games on Tuesday and Wednesday night because it's football and I want something to watch after work during the work week.
By the time spring rolls around it just doesn't feel like football time. Just think placing your games midweek could draw more viewers and more interest.
