XFL Tonight
Anyone going to watch it??
I'll give it a whirl but I'm not expecting see anything better than a fist wxhibition game played in Gualemala between the Bengals and Chargers. A real comedy of erros on the field... Wonder how the cheerleaders will be :P

OK, my verdict: So-so...
It was interesting, some of the plays were ok because they were pretty reckless and some of the rules push for a quicker game but... it ain't the NFL. Maybe the other game was good but the game I watched last night put me to sleep after the 1st half...

Disappointing, the talent is definately on a lower level than the nfl. I shut it off too . There is another game right now , kinda like college ball with relaxed rules for more physical pounding. I think it is a little overhyped and MacMahon is gonna profit well with the little the players will make.

I managed to make it thru one quarter of a game before having to give it up...
Some observations:
There was more silicone there than at a window caulkers convention!
Talent wise, they were almost as good as the Providence Steamrollers of old.
I saw lots of guys huffing and puffing like they were out of shape.
The camera gimmickery was annoying at best. Maybe they will figure out that the best place to watch a game is NOT from the shoes of a nose tackle. Often time you were so close to the action that you couldn't figure out what was going on.
I think I would actually watch GOLF than this bozo show!
