I love them showing the replay official live.

 

How's that for accountability NFL ??

 

 

.

 

And so far every replay call made sense. Being seen live on TV does wonders for your judgement, eh?

 

I have to get to FanDuel at the Meadowlands one of these days. Maybe @Gugny would meet up for Guardians game?

So far I have enjoyed the games but I really do not understand why they mostly chose cities that already have NFL teams. 
 

 I would have liked to see:

- South Carolina (Columbia or Charleston)

- Omaha

- Austin or San Antonio

- Detroit (people are begging for something other than the Lions)

- St Louis

- San Diego

- Louisville or Lexington KY

- Oklahoma City

 

I also wonder what type of support they would have had if they chose a team in Buffalo?  I tend to believe the place would be packed this time of the year.

They played it safe where they can easily market them.

Population base and facilities are likely the two big reasons. Do you think Bills fans would show up for some winter ball?

AAF tried that last year, how did that work out?

It's only the same as sports like cricket and rugby have been doing for over a decade. Its hardly revolutionary. 

 

 

I can appreciate that MM, but we don't get a lot of Cricket on TV here in WNY..............?

 

 

Murray finally gets off a good pass and it's dropped.........

Imo the major reason these other minor football leagues never succesful is because they WERNT in NFL cities. This is one of the smartest things the xfl has done. You can't put minor league teams in non football cities and expect it to be successful. Football fans want more football. Putting them in NFL cities is genius

Looks like they made some adjustments from yesterday. 
No sideline interviews immediately after. 
Unless I missed it no communications from coaches calling plays to the quarterback. 
Much different from yesterday’s games 

Maybe, Fox's game was different from ABC's yesterday so it might just be that.
