American Football 2019 Thread:

Cam to the Broncos would work me thinks.

It helps and hurts the league at the same time. They lose their most talented players but the fact those players are getting NFL opportunities will ensure they get a steady influx of talent. It may hurt the CFL though.

Aight…

Fucking playoff American football games being broadcast on Nickelodeon, even if they are just an alternative broadcast like female led Thursday Night game on Amazon, I feel this is a cosmic joke of some sort.

Did you check today’s date?

People brushed it off before and I honestly never understood why. “Oh it’s funded for 3 seasons” but the expectation was to actually generate revenue for each one. Getting canceled halfway through probably fucked them a hell of a lot worse than people expected.

So much for “vowing” to return.

Also doesn’t help that the WWE is suffering as well…

Plus the best players are now in the NFL…

Wise move to just end it.

Man it seems whenever someone tries making an alternative to a popular sport something always fucks it up. Can’t invest in nothing these days without expecting it to fail.

Goddammit. XFL actually was interesting and actually done right this damn

Yeah, if it was just the XFL they probably could have been ok, but with the WWE and all sort of business sponsors losing money, the three year plan may not be something they can afford.
