No kickoffs!

No TV Timeouts!

Innovative Onside Kick replacement!

TV deals already in place!

Launches a year earlier!

I dont see how the XFL survives

Wow it tries to be different and actually explains how beyond "well standing for the anthem will be mandatory"

On the plus side for Vince he probably hasn't sunk all that much money into the XFL yet (though he's probably too stubborn to bail)

No problem!

Theres some conspiracy theories floating around that Vince only announced the XFL coming in 2020 as a favor to Ebersol here to put broadcasters under the gun to sign his league for 2019 to get out ahead of Vince

And there was never any real intention of actually DOING the XFL

If Vince does bail out before he even tries I would absolutely believe that.

He did come out and ensure WWE stockholders that the new XFL would not take any of his time away from his WWE duties, which seemed mathematically impossible

Not only does he have stuff in place he's also got former NFL players, and executives to help run the thing. Troy Polamalu, Hines Ward, Bill Polian...Man are we gonna have a WWF vs WCW situation all over again?

Sounds like it... only without Vince McMahon involved, it seems.

Vince might be the ECW in this situation.

This seems like it will be a minor league football type thing. They are chasing players who could not make the nfl, not seeking to compete directly.

Well I meant more the 2 minor leagues competing with each other, not either one competing with the NFL

Launching right after the super bowl too is pretty genius. And the pace of the game is going to be waaaay better. I would probably watch if there is a Detroit team, but I doubt that happens.

Considering lawsuits are a thing, I imagine it will be similar to the NFL.

This does make me wonder how they will handle reviews though. Pace of play is obviously important to them, but you gotta have some sort of review system.

The NFL are a bunch of cucks.

Make a big deal about all player contracts including a huge, 30-point bold font thing at the very top that says WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SHORT OR LONG TERM DAMAGE TO YOUR BODY, EVER, NO MATTER WHAT.

Probably not legally enforceable, but will help with the PR side of things.
