Did any of y'all check out the WWF guy's interview with Bob Costas' on his HBO show?
WTF!?!?! was that all about!!!!
So, I checked out an XFL game and IMHO, the problem with the XFL is:
- their uniforms are too flashy for a startup league--too much like the NFL's--so it looks like: wannabe-cut from the practice squad-hasbeens-bite off the NFL...
- Then, although I agree with Mr. WWF, that the boys play their hearts out, but being an NFL fan, folks wanna see the big million $$$$ "plays". Don't they have different rules from the NFL??? --change up on the plays, a little...
- IMHO, I think that they don't have that je ne sais quoi--"Vince Lombardi", "Win one for the Gipper", "Knute Rockne", "Ready for sum football"--Ole'Skool flava that folks vie for in football--"THE UNDERDOG TEAM"--or the team that has no "state-of-the-art" training facilities and they still win the game!!! Too much glitz--none of that "Boilermaker" football--Y'ALL know what I'm talkin' 'bout!!!
- Lastly, if they wanna save this league and outcompete the NFL (which won't ever happen, 'cuz the NFL owners and players would get an act from Congress or have Bush to step in...) they outta consider doing "IRONMAN FOOTBALL"... But you'd probably kill your players before you start... Folks wanna see "blood and guts"... And the exotic dancers they call cheerleaders---they outta do them like the "hoochie coochie" girls like in Black College Football--shake their groove thang a little more... But I guess they cain't shake too much or it'll wreck their boob jobs they all got to get these wacky positions...
Tell me what your take on the XFL...
