Stoney Posted February 7, 2019 Author Share Posted February 7, 2019 Please let Jim Ross be the play by play guy. Please!!! I’ll buy season tickets. Heck I’ll start up a Smokey club section at the Ballpark. If Vince and Oliver Luck will commit to making this a legitimate league (getting Stoops gives that impression), I could see this working out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funniest I heard was bringing in OJ to call the games, since he used to be with MNF back in the day. I'm sure that would make a lot of people angry, but people would watch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topher805 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Im really curious about how this league works out. I was impressed with the AAF this weekend, at least the San Antonio game. Seemed to be a good amount of people in the Alamodome that were energetic and into the game. The AAF actually had higher TV ratings Saturday than the NBA on ABC... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayseed Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I'm curious to see if the rules will be distinctly different again this time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want a legit 2nd tier league but we won't have it until they start competing with the NCAA for some of those recruits... 18 yr olds are stars until they get lost in the NCAA shuffle... Pay those kids $300-400k to play pro ball for 2-3 years before going to the NFL. Then you have a legit league with legit players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will he have the quality of players to back it? I heard today that there will be a double header on Saturday and one on Sunday for the 8 teams. I think the XFL should have asked for a moderate payment, but it is free advertising. I think this will help vs. the AAF being on second tier stations where it was hard to find except the day after. What could hurt them is the AAF's way of folding out, and not paying their players or even providing a way home for them when they folded. I've heard there are a lot of lawsuits out there against that league and their teams. Unless I thought I had a shot to make it to the NFL, and I did have the talent that I would be reluctant to sign with a team. I just hope the ticket prices are reasonable enough to go and see the Houston vs. Dallas game when the league starts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said it before (many times) but I'll say it again: the Texans majorly blew it by not acquiring the rights to the Oilers colors from the get-go. That navy/crimson look is garbage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That navy/crimson look is garbage. I agree there is nothing appealing with the Texans, Packers, Browns, Jacksonville, Tennessee, Carolina, and Baltimore's uniforms. I also think Tampa Bay and New England should go back to their original uniforms. I hate when the Cowboys use their original uniforms, because I think those are ugly. I wouldn't mind if the Cowboys used their current colors with the Cowboy on the horse riding with a football, but their star looks dull in the original version, and the rest was terrible. I really hate when they wear blue jerseys especially Thanksgiving games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
