    I could watch this again....definitely not the NFL, but it was better than most of the alternatives during the "abyss" time of February-April. That said, it was pretty "cheap suit" LOL.

    XFL had a nice 3 week run back in the day, I'd watch some XFL in August before the real football begins if I was able to..

    I honestly went a 7-8 years not really watching wrestling. Unfortunately I missed the CM Punk era and right before Daniel Bryan hit his peak. But I stopped around when the PG era first started.

    If McMahon does a new league for real, I’d honestly start fresh. New name and just rebrand it. People have talked about another league pretty much before a farm/feeder system. Maybe he can do something like that.

    Hopefully he doesn’t try to create something to “compete” with the NFL.

    Cause he would know best about people trying to compete with a business as big as NFL is.

    This Was the XFL is a great 30 for 30. Pretty much highlights why the league failed. Very correctable mistakes. They couldn't call it the XFL though. No one would watch because of the name.

    I don't think he'd try to compete with the NFL, he knows that's a losing battle. The other concern would be the other farm leagues have failed. UFL, NFL Europe, world league, if you consider XFL 1, CFL or AFL farms, the latter 2 are still around. Indoor football is also still around.

    If XFL 2 gets some TV time, I'd be happy just to watch that over NBA or MLB. I say the same if CFL or AFL got regularly schedule TV and not just at random. The key is to stay away from Sep-feb time frame. College and NFL are just too big.

    that 30 for 30 was good too. Very correctable mistakes.
    I think if Vince would have given it another couple seasons it would have gained some steady traction. Changes for year 2 but suffer some viewer loss. Prove the league is worth while and gain some regular fans back in year 3 and goin forward.

    Haven't run across it, I only stick to the main forum. Otherwise I would probably end up an odd alcoholic loner who eats Hit The Targets and excretes Pigeon Bombs, while strangling neighborhood cats when Mariota throws an interception and the server melts down. A lot less cats on my street this year for some reason, don't know why.
