Apparently all XFL players are being permitted to immediately sign with NFL teams if they can find a taker, which is also surprisingly decent of them.

It sounds like someone felt they really needed to list 3 reasons to sound credible but could come up with at most like 1.5. “And uh, I totally saw him text his wife that one time! Yeah! Got you, fucker”

Is this the thread for saying the death of the XFL was scripted

Don’t forget “bought by The Rock lmao”, proving that life is in fact scripted.

I really have to wonder what drives someone like Wade Phillips to sign up to coach an XFL 3.0 team at the age of 74. He's widely regarded as one of the best defensive coaches of his era, has a Super Bowl ring, and surely has plenty of cash socked away. I respect it, but like what positive impact can this have on your life.

That was where I got too heh. Kind of a figurehead coach who can delegate anything that sucks to his underlings and just do whatever parts he enjoys.

Blue Raider posted:Isn't this version of the xfl being treated as a development league for the nfl? I seem to remember reading that somewhere Closest article I can find is a hand wavy agreement with the NFL to share “insights and best practices” that either league comes up with. I think the AAF had designs on being a more explicit feeder/development league. But it turned out to be a huge Ponzi scheme that never actually had any money behind it so welp Its main legacy was giving us the chance to watch Hackenberg play pro ball for which I will be forever grateful

DariusLikewise posted:Wasn't Foster run out of the NFL because he couldn't stop getting arrested? Yeah he had a series of DV charges which ultimately led to him being released by SF. Then Washington immediately claimed him because of course. Charges were ultimately dropped but he spent a lot of time on the exempt list, then got hurt real bad, and hasn't played in years.

I watched parts of both games. It’s very far from being good football. But it is pretty fun. The Wade Phillips coached team absolutely dismantled their opponent. At the end his assistants were all hugging him and looked like they were thinking “oh holy poo poo did we luck into being on the one remotely good XFL team???” As Kalli pointed out the arm strength difference compared to the nfl is super noticeable. It takes forever for the ball to get to the receiver which makes for a lot of very easy picks. The different tiers of extra point conversions is interesting in theory. But nobody can even convert the 1 pointer from the 2 yard line or whatever consistently lol so it’s a bit moot. The mini game of “hey I remember that guy! He loving sucked so bad in college/nfl” is fun too. Hi 2 u Paxton Lynch. Docjowles fucked around with this message at 17:06 on Feb 19, 2023 |

The Seattle / DC game was pretty good! Even if the wrong team won  A lot of disgusting turnovers is the summary of week 1. It’s the first week of a new league full of bad players so whatever. But at some point the league has to advance beyond “literally every play is 50% chance of a turnover”

As a fan of the Sea Dragons who has stood by them for their entire history, through good times and bad, I will not tolerate such slander.

RIP Sea Dragons you were pretty cool Like half the league in Texas lol. Probably makes sense demographically but maybe at least try to appeal to someone north of the mason dixon line. I guess there’s Michigan Docjowles fucked around with this message at 21:00 on Dec 1, 2023 |

It didn’t say much. Seemed to be a memo to players about logistics. Pay (bad), how the dispersal draft for teams that are being dissolved will work and some dates. Arlington TX is the “league hub” whatever that means but teams will play home games somewhere in their home market.
