Bring back the XFL

now THAT was entertainment.
for the first half of the first game. it was seen as a joke from there on. the only good things that came from that was rod smart and the sky cam. everything else = FAIL.

as for this new league, the only way it has any chance of surviving is developing a relationship with the NFL as a farm or development league used in the same way NFL-Europa was. players will choose to go to the NFL first and will only go to the UFL is they can't make it with the big boys...this goes for coaches and players alike.

I think they are hoping to get some kind of farm league status going on with the League at some point, but they have to prove their worth first. The season will start during the summer and end in the fall, during the first few weeks of the NFL. And they are only going to play on weekdays, so they won't be in direct competition with the NFL. I think I might have heard they have a contract to show games on VS....but I'm not sure about that. So, I think they have a chance, but many have tried and all have failed...even the NFL's actual developmental league, NFLE.

the xfl could have been something they had what a lot of the startup leagues did not..but they took it too far and failed..

anyway i think one day someone will make a good league for football...just need lots of money to loose..because the NFL has it flaws the arena league was geting some steam..but this recession is killing it.

      Adam Schefter: Panthers getting trade calls for Andy Dalton

      By strato · Posted

      To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. .

      I’VE FOUND OUR WR3 (Rashid Shaheed)

      By Car123 · Posted

      The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
