OT: XFL starts today - Miami Players

[dodaniels]

I like that the XFL are playing in smaller stadiums. Makes the atmosphere better than playing in a large empty stadium. The game in DC had 18k and it looked full and sounded loud.

All broadcasts are on delay.

30-45 seconds.

Only you that would know that. Jack of all trades. Is there something that you don't know **** you are going to tell me that you check it on your new Timex

Can we get Jimmy Murphy on the Tampa Bay Vipers?

 

[KevinCaneFace]

The only thing I really didn’t like was hearing the coach call the play before it’s snapped. It just kills some of the art and suspense of the game. I want to wonder what they’re gonna call in this situation. Knowing it’s a run or pass kills the fun

 

[We'retheBoss]

Hearing the play before it's called lets you experience what it's like to be on the Patriots staff

Marc Trestman TampaBay headcoach

 

[dstuart4]

Former Raiders LB. Once a Raider, always a Raider.

I remember, IIRC he finished out his career there. Being a lifelong fan of the 'Fins (rotting fish?) I have selective memory when it comes to the Las Vegas Raiders.

I love tgat part of it. If you’ve watched ball are played long enough you can just about guess the type of played that will be called in certain..is even say most situations

PJ Walker is a baller. Looked him up and see that he’s from Temple. Here’s what’s sad, most of our QB’s couldn’t make it in the NFL. But do you think they’d even make it in the XFL?

pj walker got game

 

[305to954]

Kid from Temple. Was a baller there too as I recall

This is a lot better product than aaf, more crisp and a better tan product. It’s still football but their own flavor and just different enough than the nfl. It might just make it.

As we're on CIS - one of their biggest problems is that they need better uniforms / logos.

These guys look like they're playing in a costume store American Football outfit.

well they had the benefit to learn from their first go around

Would of expected Coley to be and #2 or 3 on a NFL squad

 

[Calvin]

..I really hope the league is successful and can provide solid football during the Spring without a bunch of worthless gimmicks.

Marques Williams - Houston
Justin Vogel - New York
Anthony Moten - Seattle
Stacey Coley - Dallas

And winston moss headcoaching i believe!

A lot of stuff worked against them, right down to power outages their first week. It was all thrown together pretty **** fast. This time Vince had enough of his own money to pretty much do it all his way, not to mention taking 2-3 years to put it all together.

Multiple networks with legit announcers , not a bunch of wrestling people calling games thst knew nothing about the sport. Which made it look more gimmicky, it looked more like pro wrestling football.

This looks like an actual legit product that is in no way connected to wrasslin.

shows how we often overrate our guys. It often doesn’t make sense how we’re winning 7 games a year but then our stars are lucky to make a bench role

I understand with the uniforms. some could have been more creative but overall, good opening for the XFL.
