wandler20 posted:It seems like they both came to be about the same time but XFL needed another year to get things together for some reason. One of the reasons a lot of people throw around for the original XFL being as bad as it was is that they had far too short of a camp/preseason period before they started games. Supposedly this was pushed more by NBC because they were really pissed about losing the NFL and wanted something to counter it.

The XFL won’t have Rashad Ross or John Wolford, so really, who gives a poo poo? The only way the XFL will ever succeed is if Nathan Peterman is on the league’s top team.

Honestly how would Tebow be doing if this was his quixotic career instead of AA baseball? Can't be worse than Hack.

I love how ashamed CBS is of putting this poo poo on their broadcast channel (not happening again for the rest of the season). I'm not paying for Cable Lite to watch this. Hack is a special form of terrible.

Jiminy Christmas! Shoes! posted:Did the people behind the XFL not know about the AAF? I think the AAF was in the works for a longer time before they announced it, while Vince decided to springboard off that XFL documentary even if they weren’t ready yet. That said, the XFL should field teams entirely of incarcerated former college and NFL players, playing for their freedom.

Was there ever any reason given for the Hotshots game not having all the extra mics like the others?

The app stream being essentially raw camera feeds makes me think the broadcast was run completely by the NFL Network and they just decided not to. Everything else was CBS, so watching the TNT game will an be interesting data point to see what is AAF vs CBS vs NFLN vs whoever else.

They never gave an official reason but it's either just NFL Network doing things differently or them not using the mics after Hackenberg swore up a storm in the previous game Yet another beautiful thing Christian Hackenberg has destroyed If it's the latter then I'm hoping it's not permanent and they only turned them off for that game in lieu of a better solution to censoring bad language (a delay) which they'll implement this week.
