American Football 2019 Thread:

The XFL actually has money behind it. The primary financier actually has the money. Vince created a separate company specifically for XFL operations and put 300 million IIRC behind it. I believe they have enough cash for 3 seasons no matter what.

Do we have a single ad for xfl? What channel is it on?

I’ve seen plenty of ads during SmackDown…whatever channel Fox is on.

There’s definitely a bunch of ads.

It’s gonna be on the big ones. CBS/Fox/ESPN. ESPN is getting two games, CBS/Fox one game each. Most of the ads are on ESPN.

I love the reaction to be honest. You can let a child watch a sport where there’s a very real possibility you can see someone get paralyzed for life on any given play. But if there is some sexually suggestive dancing that’s a huge nono.

I think I will rooting for the LA Wildcats because they are the technical local team and partially orange but the Guardians and Dragons have sick logos.

This feels like choosing between the Silver Snakes, Blue Barracudas and Orange Iguanas in Legends of the Hidden Temple

TX has two teams.

I usually support all TX teams but this is a hard choice.

Caught the game late, thoughts on the rule changes so far?

There seem to be more fans at the DC Defenders game than there were at the last Redskins home game. Too early on the rules for a decision. No one has really taken advantage of the new PAT rules. I do like the fact that we actually get kickoffs in this league.

This league has a TMO (television match official) like rugby.

Officiating crew already better.

They are motherfucking fixing a down. Holy shit football, welcome to the 21st century.

Yeah it’s nice that you actually hear the officials discuss the review. NFL take notes.

In rugby the TMO is the guy in the replay booth that can get called on for help just like the XFL has.

Thats already a better reffing situation. NFL refs look like cucks compared to this.
