That’s what makes it fun.

But watching it is more akin to 80's level WWF matches where JGWP plays the part of Barry Horowitz

I am impressed with the level of race detail. Very well done.

good to see my guy Tyree Jackson getting some time under center for Washington

I think there is a player in there if you can wait 3-4 years.

Yep.

3 of the 4 games did. Not just the NBA though...they got higher ratings than every college basketball game over the weekend.

And that's still not enough to make me care about this shitass league.

That is my point. A second rate, start up football league that during during out of season NFL outdrew MANY in season NBA games. ltg would rather chase me around the board bumping old posts rather than address how football of any sort > NBA.

LTG's weirdness notwithstanding, it's hard to use this past weekend as the example. Catch me in 2-4 weeks when the league is really rolling along to see where ratings are.

I remember the XFL the first time around. I was bartending back then...the games were a thing...for like 3 weeks.

I have no doubt that the ratings will probably tank to AAF type levels by mid March.

Stats such as what folding already? The NBA has never folded. Can't say the same regarding every startup football league other than the NFL can we?

Totally. That's why while ratings suck I'm surprised to see you refer to the nba as a novelty.

I'm quite familiar with the thin novel on the subject of "NBA Regular season > Out of season NFL" that you try and hock to no avail, ltg.

Sure. Only dopes such as yourself actually believe that. Too bad TV execs do not agree.

Over and under on the latest incarnation.
XFL folds after one season

CBC News

Posted: May 11, 2001

The XFL is dead. The XFL folded Thursday after one season that was a critical and TV ratings disappointment for the football league founded by the World Wrestling Federation and jointly owned by NBC.

The WWF said its share of after-tax losses will be about $35 million. NBC's loss should be similar.

"Despite where our heart was, we just couldn't make it work from a financial standpoint," said WWF chairman Vince McMahon. "We tried to figure out every conceivable way to make this work."

Sorry, folks. LTG's character won't be back for the second act, as he's been killed off.

Frank, do you think that the XFL beating NBA regular season games in its first week is indicative that it will be more popular than the NBA?
