This is definitely a couple week old article, thought it would have appeared on the board by now - but it hasn't. Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson bought the XFL for 15 million. There's still hope. lol Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson buys XFL for $15 million
I don’t know what the rock’s plans for the league would be. I don’t thinks it’s a good idea to make it NFL jr which is kinds of why I liked McMahon in charge. I think the more rule gimmicks the better within safety reasons of course. From the first run, jersey names were good. Instead of no fair catch, no punts. Get stopped on 4th down shy of the 50, other team starts no closer than the 50. No extra points was good. Obviously bad was the “coin toss” due to injuries, but they could make it more interesting somehow outside of actually flipping a coin. Maybe QBs launch the ball, furthest gets to pick. They should also reach out to every popular retread they can like TO, Chad Johnson, VY, Tebow, CK, I heard even Herschel Walker thinks he can still compete. Get some players with a “name” just to gain some viewers until the unknown talents can break out.
