XFL 2020

[TarHeelMark]

Hell yeah! It's finally football season.

 

[TarHeelMark]

Looks like some great matchups today. I got nothing better to watch.

Just turned it on and watched Austin proehl score. Now the PAT I don’t agree with. The game is tied so go for three because one point doesn’t do you any good nor does two.

 

[TarHeelMark]

Former Heels on rosters include Quise, Elijah, Proehl, and Des Lawrence.

Austin scored a td earlier.

The kickoff setup is wild.

The kickoff setup is wild.

Yeah it is. But if it reduces those full speed collisions, and end results are similar, then it makes sense.

This first game has been entertaining, and the crowd seems really into it.

That was my first thought as well. Reducing the force of the impacts means less brain trauma. Smart move by them

 

[TarHeelMark]

The ball spotting official is a good idea.

Was definitely more interesting than I was expecting.

Yeah I went in with super low expectations and was surprised at it not being bad.

wife and three kids have all picked their teams...i think it’s kinda cool, love the adjusted rules.

me: vipers
wifey: dragons
two boys: renegades
one boy: guardians

gear coming in the mail hot

 

[gteeitup]

my fear is once the weather gets warm, attention and attendance drops.

how great is it that they are promoting gambling, lol.

Promoting gambling is smart. Gambling and fantasy football is a big reason some people follow the NFL.

I was trying to figure out which team myself, so I can snag a shirt or hat.

 

[TarHeelMark]

I like the renegades helmet logo.

Our boy Austin had 2 TDs yesterday for the dragons. Maybe that's my team?

Yep. I'd say those two are the only reason 95% of the people watch the games of teams that aren't their team.

much better offense this weekend...we’re still in!!

although this league is all about the under.

yeah, I just turned on the dallas / l.a. game and its picking up on the action for sure in the 4th

 

[TarHeelMark]

it has to be a nightmare to oddsmakers to set the lines in the first few weeks of a new league

 

[gteeitup]

gambling on the xfl is not for the faint of heart...took both overs today

marquise williams is hot garbage.

He didn't look good today for sure.

I do like that the viewer gets to hear the replay official go through the process, and communicate to the on field refs.

they’ll never allow that in the nfl, unfortunately...it’s a great idea.

the nfl really should study this...the kickoffs, the pt after conversions, etc...all good!!

 

[TarHeelMark]

I know it was the right thing for XFL to cancel the rest of this season, but just think of all the extra viewers they could've gotten if they hadn't.

@gteeitup , your swag might become collectibles one day, kinda like my Philadelphia Stars shirt.
