Guardians and Defenders sound too similar, as does Renegades and Roughnecks, Battlehawks makes no fucking sense, and how come no NFL team has taken the name Dragons? I'd be a fan of a team named the Dragons. [Reply]
NFL Europe brought us some great players to the NFL... We may not have known about James Harrison, Dante Hall or Kurt Warner... I'm shocked the NFL doesn't embrace these leagues more and with the AFL last year, I'm shocked the contract system didn't lead to viability. [Reply]
I like the idea of the xfl. Hate the execution. We don't need large market replacement football. But a league that was 100% committed to great college markets like birmingham, Austin, Columbus, Orlando would do really well. The AAF could have been a decent league with a little more time, commitment to this idea, and with realistic expectations about what success looks like. They could easily make a killing with 15-20k fans per game. [Reply]
