AAF suspends football operations

This doesn't sound bad to me:

New XFL, new rules: 10 things to know about Vince McMahon's rebooted league

Hope not, the last XFL was a bit too brutal for my liking. Hope it's not just defensive players trying to take out any offensive players at all costs rather than having actual strategy. And for dear God, if they want to expand their fan base to younger generations, quit the emphasis on cheerleaders. I think that the AAF's success will partially dictate some of the decisions that the XFL makes.

The no halftime doesnt make sense to me though.

For those that really enjoy torture NFLN has Super Bowl XLII tonight ... yum.

Where is Kraft's team for this new league?

could have been called the New England Shaft.

For those that really enjoy torture NFLN has Super Bowl XLII tonight ... yum.

The AAF could be one step removed from Pee Wee Football, and I'd still rather watch that while slamming my junk in a car door than a replay of Super Bowl XLII.

So, I was all set to jump in as a Birmingham fan. Trent Richardson, woohoo! Then I did some research...

The D's are not allowed to rush more than 5, and a pass rusher cannot be more than 2 yards from the LOS. Immediately I smelled the unmistakable scent of ****ification and scrotum-less football.

Whaddya know? Bill f'n Polian is the co-founder and President of this league. Holy ****!

I'll watch, just because. But I am rooting for an epic failure.

I'll root for Vince McMahon next year instead, I guess.

I won't be giving support of any kind to anything associated with the name Bill Polian.

Just curious what people think of it. It's debuting tonight on CBS. (I'll check out the first quarter or so.)

FWIW, there was just a Buffalo Wild Wings commercial, asking "Is this pitcher half-full or half-empty. I guess it depends on one question. Are you from New England?"

 

[Charlotte Pats Fan]

Anyone watching this? Polian makes me gag

 

[Fixit]

My son and I are watching. No shame!

 

[Triumph]

Football is ritirning

 

[Charlotte Pats Fan]

I heard that they were going to call it the Football Alliance of America, but the acronym "FAA" would never fly.

Thanks, I'll be here all week!

 

[Charlotte Pats Fan]

I think ive got Orlando Atlanta

 

[Koma]

This league is co-founded by Bill Polian.

Do not support or watch this league unless you enjoy corruption!

Polian's going to find a way to attach Dungy and Peyton Manning to a team and then fix it so that team wins 4 championships in a row. This will then be used as evidence that those two are the best coach and QB ever.

That hit was legit.

I would rather watch Ru Paul's Queer eye for the Kardashians of New Jersey, while stuck in a room with an armed, famished, cannibalistic serial killer than watch this version of 'football'.

But to each his/her own

Bercovicci still trying to figure out what century he is in......

Well, his name sounds like a 15th-century sculptor, so ...
