Default 2020 XFL Season Thread

Looks like we will see a return of the XFL league in 2020 according to cbs sports. I know we are still 2 years from game time but figured I would start a fresh post to discuss the upcoming league.

I wonder where the teams will be located.

Original 8 XFL teams:

Orlando Rage
Chicago Enforcers
New York/New Jersey Hitmen
Birmingham Thunderbolts
Los Angeles Xtreme
San Francisco Demons
Memphis Maniax
Las Vegas Outlaws

It's smart the XFL is going to play in the winter after the Super Bowl rather than try to go head-to-head with the NFL and college in the fall.

get rid of the gimmicks and no stupid wrestlers as announcers and give me real football. The good thing is the XFL can be smart and just draft after the draft and pickup a ton of good or decent talent

Is this how we'll get Tebow, Manziel and Christian Hackenberg back onto the field?

Johnny Manziel may be going to the CFL. Playing for Hamilton.

“We’ll have nothing to do with politics, nothing to do with social issues,” McMahon said.

Kneeling during “The Star-Spangled Banner”. would not be tolerated in the XFL.

“It’s a time-honored tradition to stand for the national anthem,” McMahon said.
Quote:
Also, McMahon said players’ character would count as much or more than their athletic ability. Think less Johnny Manziel and more Tim Tebow — two players’ names mentioned by fans as possible players for the new XFL.

McMahon said players in the new XFL can’t have any criminal records. “Even if you have a DUI, you will not play in the XFL,” he said.

I don't know about Tebow. He's pretty invested into baseball. Krap would never go for such thing.

The talent level will probably be more along the lines of the Mike Bercovici, Skyler Howard types who get looks after college but it never results in anything more.

I don't mind the idea of an XFL, but that name "XFL": I'm surprised they're staying with it, not so much that it's a reminder of a colossal failure, but that it's just so cheesy.

Now, an alternative name for the league? I'm not sure...

1.) No storylines or stupid backstage skits.

2.) No WWE Superstars involvement.

3.) Play nice with The Mafia a.k.a. the NFL.

4.) Punish players who get out of line on or off the clock.

5.) Last names need to be included with nicknames on the back of the jerseys.

6.) Bring back Jim Ross.

7.) Steam games online.

8.) Be active on social media and marketing.


All these steps will ensure better success for the XFL than last time. Go Outlaws!
