San Diego is an obvious choice.

I don’t see how he’s doing this on $100 million only. Even cheaply run sports leagues can lose that in a year.

St. Louis for the same reason.

He's probably looking for places with good media markets, stadiums ready to go, and distaste/anger with the NFL.

Guessing St. Louis, San Diego, LA, Orlando, somewhere in the Carolinas, somewhere in the NY/NJ menagerie, somewhere in the Deep South, and somewhere in Texas.

St. Louis, San Diego, Orlando, Hartford, Richmond? Birmingham, San Antonio, and let's say Oklahoma City. Anything against playing in college stadiums?

It was until the President (Trump) decided he needed the league to go head to head with the NFL and they changed it to fall.

And the NFL used their might to squash the USFL in the courts (looking at end result, not the cause of the whole thing to begin with). It bankrupted the USFL.
 
It's official. XFL shooting for 2020.

Looking at 8 teams to start. No franchising, all teams owned directly by the league.

Cities not known, but looking at large cities that already have football stadiums.

Season would start in late January/early February. 10 game season per team, then a 3 game playoffs.

Aiming for a simpler, shorter, faster game. Fewer breaks. No halftime is possible.

Sounds like he's trying to cut the "OMG 2 X-TREME!!!1!" crap.

No politics or social issues. *cough*

Gave a "we'll look into it" on concussions/CTE.

No messing around with WWE crossovers or anything like that.

Nothing really concrete yet, but Vince mostly seems to understand what is wanted.

I doubt it even gets off the ground and if it does the end result will be the same as the first time it failed.

Nobody with an NFL contract or who wants an NFL contract can touch them for fear of enraging The Shield. Who's left?

He'll probably start out using the WWE app for streaming. Maybe he could pay USA or SyFy to do a game every so often.

The zip line put up for the Super Bowl festivities began today. People on it had one fine day to fly over the Mississippi River.

I’m going Wednesday night


I’m about a 7/10 on the afraid of heights scale. I have no idea what I’m getting into.

I have no idea what the cash would be to get me to go on that thing. I know 4 figures wouldn't even be close to enough. I *might* listen to 5 figures.

If I were healthy and not saving for a wedding, I'd be all over it. Then again, once upon a time I was a rock climber.

*shudder*

I did a wall once. Going up was not that bad. Going down? Took me about 20 minutes to even think about taking that first step.
 
Re: NFL 2018 - cheaters never win, except for the super bowls and stuff :(

Dude. I’m terrified of heights and even I enjoyed the abseil more than the ascent every time I went climbing.

My buddy took a pic of me hanging from a rope while on the way down from topping out. The rope was anchored a little ways out from the cliff (not ideal normally, but an easy climb), and there I am staring at the hills of western GA from the northeast corner of AL.

As a grown adult, it took me about 4-5 years, 8 hours a day, to get used to moving around at 24 feet up at work, with a safety harness. :( I had what they call "magnet shoes" during that time.* Wild Thing at Valleyfair freaks me out. Heck that old white rollercoaster freaked me out. Too high.

*Think if you were wearing shoes with hardcore magnets, and walk around like that. Big step, CLOMP.
 
Re: NFL 2018 - cheaters never win, except for the super bowls and stuff :(

I'm only a 5/10 on heights - it takes A LOT of height for me to sweat. I'd suit up for it, if I were there.
