Still don't know which team I'm going to root for. Perhaps, at some level, I need to know my chosen team is bad, because I fear success?
Anyway, I hope this good for what it is. Spring football owns in theory.

Cavauro I love you but shut the gently caress up. I will not root for the Birmingham "incest" Irons for any reasons. Those retards put MLK in jail and for that crime they will not win a game. Also AOC is the official Superfan of the San Antonio Commanders.

They apparently have some sort of special deal with MGM Grand, and they've already played at least one exhibition "scrimmage" each against each other. The people who set odds have enough information to set a line, otherwise they wouldn't set one.

And they're going to have all the information they want. Apparently they're putting sensors on all the players and the ball- the "gamecast" that you'll see on the app will apparently have each player on the field and the ball represented and moving in close to real time. All that data is going to get fed to the oddsmakers as well.

It's probably going to break horribly the first weekend, because of course it is, but once they iron it out it's got a chance to be pretty nifty.

also go birmingham or whatever

Back during the original XFL, Vegas couldn't set the line low enough. I believe through the first 4 or 5 weeks every single game came in under.
