Warcodered Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 (edited) Having a draftable player playing in the XFL instead of college is definitely interesting. Edited February 9, 2020 by Warcodered 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Sounds like they're gonna have no problem getting some college players. The money and playing time is a big draw for them. And then they can still enter the draft.

/dev/null Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Yesterday's games were great Today's early game was decent, but clearly controlled by one team Sunday's late game however, is like a 2010ish Bills/Browns snoozer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steptide Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 I don't understand the winning team getting 100k. Is that on top of what they're already getting paid, or does the winning team just split 100k between the players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All squads came out organized. Announcing was/is good Officiating is good (better than the NFL IMO) I like the different rules Teams are playing to win ($$$) and players are playing to prove themselves to get to another level. Guardians to win it all Baby! Week one has already far exceeded my expectations and I will continue to watch.

Guess I'll invest my loyalty early in the Guardians since they're the NY team. Who's everyone else rooting for? My (21 yr old) son was funny - he decided he was going to follow the XFL and pick a team and picked the Defenders b/c of Bills connections w/ Cardale, Tyree, Lee (I also just realized Deondre Wesley plays for them). He then challenged my Dad and nephew to follow a team and now they have a pool going. My Dad added a payout if your team finishes the season ? He was also rooting for Proehl this weekend - he got Proehl's autograph on a hat at TC and jokes it will be worth more when he becomes an XFL legend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering about that. I also wonder how much they make compared to the company that owns the stadium. Thought the games were pretty good but more to the level of talent of the NFL preseason. That said, I wonder how much these players improve playing a 'season'. One more reason NFL should have a farm league that the original team drafting or sugning the player has the rights too.

MAJBobby Posted February 9, 2020 Author Share Posted February 9, 2020 I really hope this league sustains and gets cash positive to where they can sell teams and expand. I would love to see how many top end College players they would be able to steal from the NCAA and earn a nice check playing while they wait for the 3 year time limit will be up.

Issue with NFLE is I think the NFL was still funding everything there. Here Vince and his guys would fund. Just the NFL and NFLPA would just have to work with him. Like how much More development in learning the game would happen for Wade if he was a Bills designation to the league and playing instead of sitting at home in UK this spring.

Back in the day before the stadiums were filled with cameras and skyview and you could build a 3D image of the play on the field, there were only a few cameras in the stadium. The AFL lined all the cameras up on one side of the stadium and filled seats on the other side. So the stadiums were half empty but on TV they looked full Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
