Seems like it would be good for the XFL's sustainability to become a testing ground for potential NFL rule changes, kind of like with independent leagues like the Atlantic League and MLB.

Does explain why he was at the Super Bowl if it was going to lead to this.
That's pretty wild considering.

Since he mostly seemed to learn the big lesson of all the things he did wrong with the XFL the first time. (not that he was perfect... see a bunch of shit earlier in the thread >_>) But the NFL did blatantly steal things from the XFL in terms of broadcasting the game.

honestly a minor league for the NFL almost seems like a no-brainer for me. its existed for decades for Hockey and Baseball, I'm kinda surprised it's not really a thing for football.

The XFL is a lot more likely to succeed with the NFL’s backing than it is as a competitor. The NFL is king in America, so anyone trying to compete in any sport is going to lose and lose badly. However if they are acting as the minor leagues for the NFL, then they instantly gain some credibility and they are going to do numbers anyway since football is so popular in the US. It makes a lot of sense.

It's apples and oranges. Most players drafted in the MLB and NHL are younger and also take more time to develop. There are many players who didn't make the big show until 24/25/26 and were drafted at 19 or 20, or even as young as 16/17/18 in baseball internationally. There are so few NHL prospects who are pro ready out of the draft and basically no one in the MLB draft goes straight to the bigs. The minors are a complete necessity. The minors in football, whether it be the XFL, CFL, AAF, NFL Europe, etc are close to the NBA's G League. It helps the league, but it's never going to make a ton of money and it's never going to produce a ton of real impact NFL players. Some fringe roster guys. Most of their drafted players who will make it are ready day 1.

At last, we might be getting some major news tomorrow.
If you go to xfl.com, there’s a message that “Every Dream Has its Day One. A new era for the XFL is starting” along with a countdown clock.
I’m hoping we find out the cities and (possibly) team names.

New logo: I too have been to fonts.com. I get going for the minimalist look but this is WAY too much.

that's... that's it? That's the "news"?
It's screams "We paid my cousin's marketing/consulting firm 2 millions dollars for an image redesign and a year later this is what we have to show for it"

The entire website being in black and white is giving me flashbacks of visiting the NWO’s page on America Online.
