Sorry, Seattle only cares about the Seahawks, the Sounders, and the Mariners(ironically). Hell we even have a new NHL team starting soon. No one here will bother with the XFL.
In fact, why put another team in Seattle in the first place? Portland makes way way more sense.

I hope the XFL is successful for like six weeks and then Vince McMahon gets busted for tax evasion or something and that brings the whole thing down.

Either way I give it two seasons, tops. And that’s being generous I think.

I don’t think they put a lot of thought into the team names. Maybe some of them but I’m pretty sure they used Madden’s create a team and just randomly generated some poo poo.

Note: I haven’t really played madden in like 15 years so you may not know what I’m talking about since I don’t know if create a team is the same or even still exists.

That was my immediate thought too. The League of Legends team was also called the Renegades and had a very similar logo. I looked it up and it wasn't quite as close as I remembered, but similar anyway:

I my first reaction to this was "meh" until I looked at the stats and uhhhh :wtc:

#2 in points scored, #10 in points allowed, most yards gained on offense, fewest yards allowed on defense, AND their strength of schedule was soft as hell. Yet they went 9-7.

They won 6 games by over 20 points that season, that's really really good. The Patriots have 6... in the last two seasons combined.

They also managed to get blown out by a 4-12 Bengals team and lost twice to the Tom Cable Raiders. They also had nightmarishly bad special teams which killed them in a bunch of games.

Found a bunch of gifs of their ST play from that season:
