I don't follow football, but for you guys that do and might be interested in the relaunch of the XFL, it starts today.
Differences between the NFL and XFL explained.

I don't remember much about the first time the XFL was introduced. I remember cheerleaders and that it flopped.
Reading the rules, I think this stands a better chance at succeeding.

I'm curious to see what the average pay bump will be if this first season is considered a success.
QB stats so far:
Cardale Jones (DC Defenders): 16-26 (62%), 235 yds, 2 TDs
Brandon Silvers (Seattle Dragons): 21-40 (53%), 217 yds, 3 TDs, 2 INTs
Phillip Walker (Houston Roughnecks): 23-39 (59%), 272 yds, 4 TDs, 1 INT
Chad Kanoff (LA Wildcats): 21-40 (53%), 214 yds, 1 TD, 1 INT
Aaron Murray (Tampa Bay Vipers): 16-34 (47%), 231 yds, 0 TDs, 2 INTs
Matt McGloin (New York Guardians): 15-29 (52%), 182 yds, 1 TD
Dallas and St. Louis are playing right now so I haven't included their QB stats. Cardale Jones and Phillip Walker have looked the best so far, and they also have the most yards per attempt which is generally pretty telling. Aaron Murray was great in college, but he has rotated through a couple of leagues at this point with little success. It looks like he's going to be a bust here as well. Brandon Silvers seems to have potential but he just kind of slings it out there and reminds me of Jameis Winston. The other guys just look kinda meh. This level of play is fine for the first season, but I do think they're going to need some slightly higher profile QBs for this league to make it long term.
Sideline interviews... not a big deal.
Jenny Taft ... YES !!! Great to see her working an event I'm watching.
Watched 20min of the NY game and wasn't disappointed.
