The Official XFL Thread!

Oh dear. Seattle would have had to settle for a field goal but DC ran into the kicker. First down for the Dragons.

Jim Zorn calls "slug-o seam," which I remember the Buccaneers jumping on all day long in Super Bowl XXXVII. The Defenders jump on it too, but draw another flag.

I am shocked at how much I'm enjoying this.

Hearing the play calls which the announcers can explain pre-play, hearing the refs discuss, and mid-game interviews with players are all awesome additions.

And the NFL should adopt that kick off rule immediately.

wonder if the XFL will start pursuing big name college guys..

Nope. Five star HS guys.

Aim for them, offer them a paycheck and release them from contractual obligations after they reach their third year and become draft eligible. If I'm a five star RB, which sounds more appealing - playing football at college for nothing, or playing three seasons of XFL Football for $1.5mm?

Competing against the NFL isn't smart. Competing against the NCAA? That's a dog that can hunt.
