It was interesting to see the mid college players who never even made it to being able to try for the NFL. Feels like they should be the NFL minor league.

Also, I hope they make it easy/cheap to attend games, cuz having a crowd helps.

There's a reason ESECPN didn't want OSU there...

So who is your XFL team? I'm rooting for the DC Defenders until Columbus gets a team in the expansion. (Columbus was the XFL's #1 TV market for the DC game. Probably because of Cardale.

I'm going with DC cuz they are the closest, and I was born there. So... same reason I cheer for the Redskins.

Althought, seeing Proehl do well was cool (he played at UNC, but never made it past an NFL practice squad). And I'll check out NY if Marquise Williams plays, he was fun to watch at UNC (QB). I think he's their #2 QB though.

Hah. I 0% expect that a) to happen or b) XFL team to get promoted. But I love the idea, like European football relegation.

I always wondered why baseball didnt do this since it has minor leagues alreayd.

Seattle's fan base is legit. Aside from the upper deck around the stadium, that place is sold out.

2nd half of the TB/Seattle game was pretty awesome.

I know Twitter had some fun at his expense immediately after that interview.

XFL cancels the rest of the season, but will fully pay all players and give refunds to fans.

Signing an XFL QB worked out well for the Steelers during the XFL's last run.
