Will anyone watch the XFL this weekend?

The best way for this league to be relevant would be to aggressively recruit high school kids and compete with college as the pipeline to the NFL. It would be great for society too if colleges got out of the football business and got back in the education business.

Was going to say it's not bad so far....nice filler after the nfl season finishes......I hope the standard keeps up

Kicker misses a FG and Dianna Russini asks him what happened lol

Excellent home crowd.

Of course, they've been stuck with the Redskins.

I like the quirkiness of it. I’m enjoying this so far.

The rule changes are great. Love the XP choices, the kickoffs, and one foot for receivers.

They mentioned touchbacks result in a penalty. Did anyone catch what the penalty is?

This is what happens when you interview players right after plays haha.

McMahon is loving it I’m sure.

Kenny Robinson was dismissed from WVU for academic stuff last summer and elected to play in the XFL and enter the draft this spring rather than transfer. He was one of the best safeties in college as a sophomore, has special physical and ball skills, and could go anywhere in the draft from day one to going undrafted depending on how he shows against professionals.

That's the kind of thing this league should be doing.

Amazing

XFL is doing an awesome job. They’re interviewing players during the game so you get to know the names on these teams. Pretty brilliant, really.

Wish they had nicknames on their jerseys though

Kickoff rule should be implemented. Feel like the XFL just found the solution.

Definitely the coolest rule I’ve seen. The NFL is too stubborn to implement something another league came up with.

Former New England Patriot Trey Williams

(That catch and shake move was better than anything Sony's ever done)

 

[Charlotte Pats Fan]

Don’t know about the cameras in the locker rooms at half

 

[Gator Mike]

Fairly entertaining game so far.

I'm impressed.

Why are there any running plays at all, just line up 5 wide and run an air raid. The receivers are much better than the corners

 

[MoreBellhorn]

I’m enjoying this game quite a bit. I’ll definitely catch the game after this.

Wow. Seattle QB was having good success when he called"Brady!Brady!" plays- all intermediate passes- until he just threw a pick6 on a Brady call.
