Who is ready for the XFL to start?? Saturday, February 18!

[Nancy]

I am looking forward to it and if you didn't know there are 8 teams this year.  St. Louis Battlehawks are one of the teams closest to Indy.

Hope it's good and fun like it was before!  Will you be watching?

I just noticed there is a QB for the Arlington team and he played at Ball State - Drew Pitt.

I am looking forward to it. Hoping to go to a game or 2, since I live in Stl. AJ McCarron is likely the starting QB

I'm not, really.   

I am looking forward to season 2 of the USFL.   It was good football last season.

Some good football by 3 of the 4 clubs yesterday,seems talent a but higher then what USFL will have this year. Several former Colts in action yesterday.

I totally forgot about it, honestly. 
 

I dunno. I’m not ready for more football yet. That’s part of the reason I got so into the USFL last year. I got a proper break from football before it started. 
 

I forgot about the games yesterday, and didn’t see anything at all about them until I saw this thread, so… it doesn’t seem to have made much of a splash.

Same here, I didn't watch any.   Did the XLF ditch their crap they tried to do the first time they started.  It was way too much like wrestling and not about football.

You MISSED some good football!! Some new rules so have to figure some of it out, but overall good talent!  It's fun!  Games on Thurs/Sat/Sunday FX & ESPN!  Give it a try!

It was not all crazy like when they played before.  Several different rules to make it interesting...or not! Good crowds though.

Anyone believe him?

Maybe technically true since he left being a career back up QB to be a starter in a much lesser league but the real reason is because his has made over $15 million while throwing just 174 passes.  I guess $86,000 per pass is pretty good money.

 

Former Cincinnati Bengals quarterback A. J. McCarron has hit the ground running in his first season in the XFL, leading the St. Louis Battlehawks to two thrilling comeback victories for a 2-0 start. 

Aside from his performance on the field, McCarron received praise from XFL owner Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson on Friday because of his decision to leave the NFL to pursue a career where he could "create memories" with his two young boys.

I guess if he's happy with what he's doing!  Lots of games this weekend to watch!  I'm kind of loving the San Antonio Brahmas!

Well who does this??  Sells the teams' plays to another XFL team?  Well Quinten Dormady - QB of the Orlando Guardians! Let go for 1 day then brought back!  Crazy stuff like this won't work too well!
