Out with the N, in with the X! Or something. www.xfl.com/en-US/articles/xfl-releases-2020-scheduleI'm excited not for the return of the XFL, but for the fact that we get three extra months of football. There's no Philly team and I'm definitely not rooting for a New York team, so I'll probably root for the Seattle Dragons. List of teams goes hereAnyone else planning to watch? Games start Saturday at 2 PM Eastern!

I'll be watching it. I watched the XFL the first time around and, as you said, three more months of football. So yeah, I'll give it a shot.
My team will be the DC Defenders, and they actually play the Dragons in the opening game this Saturday, go figure. I don't know the players or the coaches yet, haven't read up on them, but I know McMahon has a sunk a lot of money into it. It's something for the NFL off season anyway, hopefully it'll last longer than the first time he tried it.

If I'm going to watch I guess then the team I'm going to have to root for is NY (GAH!) since there are no New England teams. Nice to have 3 more months of FB. There sure are plenty of has been/never where NE players and coaches though.

Dejuan Neal, who is playing for the New York Guardians and was on the Redskins practice squad, went to the same high school I did in southern MD. That's kind of cool. Wish he was playing for the Defenders.

I've watched more of this first XFL game than I did the Super Bowl Player performance has been inconsistent which is expected, but has been pretty entertaining in this first game. Glad they have lessened on the constant sideline interviews after they let an F bomb go through. Also hope they do away with the half time locker room stuff. I'm digging the rule adjustments though, particularly with the kickoffs. That's something I hope the NFL mimics, as kickoffs in the NFL are mostly a waste of time these days. Edit: okay, so it seems all of my gripes about the first game must have been ESPN / ABC. Fox is doing a much better job with their presentation, commentary, explaining the rules, and overall has been less intrusive with the players and listening in on play calling. Feels like a much more natural broadcast. Hopefully ESPN / ABC are taking notes.

This was a pretty good game: Of course, since I don't have cable, it was the only one I missed. But the highlights were pretty good.

DC Defenders coming out strong at 2-0. At the LA Wildcats this weekend, hopefully go to 3-0. Looking forward to seeing the Defenders away uniforms for the first time on the field. Have to find this one streaming somewhere, I don't have cable either.

For the second week in a row I won't be able to see the Defenders game. Last week on FS1 and this week on ESPN2. It's getting annoying and I'm starting to get turned off to the whole thing.
I get not every game can be on broadcast TV for people that don't have cable, but they could at least have the game live on their site. For a league trying to prove itself, ignoring the people that don't subscribe to cable or satellite seems like a bad move.
Oh well, guess it's NASCAR and movies tomorrow.

Season canceled due to the virus. The site says they'll be back for a 2021 season, but I guess that depends on how much Vince and his investors lost this season, which was probably a bunch. Going to pay the players for the rest of the 2020 season, so that's good. Too bad. Bad timing with all of the mess.

Hope they are able to return, I was a fan of the rules differences.
