February 27, 20205 yr comment_464742 “Savagers will point out the product has been mundane. Although there has been an attempt to spice up blah with lots of mic’ed-up coaches and players, announcers have been too “rah-rah.” If sideline reporters have to be seen, they should not be heard. Sparsely-filled stadiums cannot be that noisy and players responses to cliched questions have been meh”. - Barry Horn https://www.forbes.com/sites/barryhorn/2020/02/26/xfl-tv-ratings-are-headed-in-the-wrong-direction-for-a-league-that-wants-to-hang-around/#fe0637c2018e Yes, I agree with this guy. - Pointing out crowd noise? Yeah maybe in one stadium - Sideline interviews? Pretty bad. And useless - Rah rah announcers? Tryin* real hard. Too hard.

Does this idiot know that there is a salary cap? I can't wait until Burris is no longer around the league in any capacity. Burris has the same sentence structure as Trump...

February 28, 20205 yr comment_464958 I'm pleased to see that he really doesn't seem to like wearing green. At the very least, he's got good sense and taste.
February 28, 20205 yr comment_464984 Pass. Flowers has been absolutely awful in the X. He's throwing a hissy fit because he played awful, got benched and is now in a rotation.

February 29, 20205 yr comment_465042 My son is having a difficult time today. He's switching back and forth between (Beat)LA vs NY game and a replay of the NFL Combine from last night. Boy, those DL are slowwwww.... (I could be talking about either show)
February 29, 20205 yr comment_465043 Are there 5,000 fans at the NY Guardians game??? Cavernous Met Life Stadium is virtually empty.
February 29, 20205 yr comment_465044 Turned on for 1 play and saw a guy drop an easy catch wide open. Good luck.
February 29, 20205 yr comment_465050 Wonder if Vince will reconsider his investment/time willing to put into it when he sees he may loose half of what he budgeted for 3 yrs in yr 1...with a possible yr 2 to hemmorage even more?

Flowers is a talented runner, but at this point you dont have to stretch to find an athletic running qb with a flawed arm.

March 2, 20205 yr comment_465162 watched a fraction of that....they must be piping in crowd noise for those games..for such a piddly crowd sure sounded like a big crowd
March 3, 20205 yr comment_465207 Have heard over and over how terrible the QB play is. There is not enough pro QB's to have a decent starters and backups for 32 NFL teams. Our rules and field size mean that there are always a few who fit better in the CFL. But there is barely 9 starter level QB's for our needs. It is to be expected that a league using NFL rules and field will be unable to field starters for a compelling slate of games.

Except they are playing on the same field with the same number of players they've always played. Against other non NFLers, and it is still bad.

A bunch of geriatrics would have basically been banished from all other leagues. Continuity will help the QB issue as guys get time to develop as pros and within systems. They should have allowed unlimited backfield motion for the 3 eligibles who are not on the line. The two forward pass rule is basically useless.
