Good quality product. The kickoffs are nice. I didn't catch all the rules though, why aren't they just driving it out the back of the end zone? Do the kickers not have the leg?

Watched the houston roughnecks. I'm surprised they don't go for 3 every PAT. Run n shoot teams are at a bigger disadvantage the closer they get to the goal line.

Pretty sure that in the XFL, kicking it out of the back counts as kicking it out of bounds, which means it's spotted on the 45. If you kick it in the air to the endzone, they can take a touchback to the 35.

They're trying to encourage returns while also protecting players.

Every expansion franchise from that city has sucked hard core for the first few years in existence.

The orange unis didn't help any.

It's too bad the Rays didn't win their world series in... 2008? Forget the exact year, but the one they lost to the Phillies. Would be pretty crazy to have 3 expansion teams all win championships.

Watched Alita-Battle Angel last night.
Pretty sure that type of sport and KD ratios would be the only thing to ever get me to watch sports again.
Sports free for 2 years now. Not even racing/drag racing which is a sport I actually did for 6 years.
Bring on The Running Man or die trying.

Bullshit. Being in this section is giving you your sports fix. If you really wanna get off the sauce, you need to ask amod for a permaban from all of these threads.

I got to this section based off the frontpage recent posts. This particular thread peaked my interest to read 1 page of posts based on twitter feeds I saw today.
Hardly a fix, but we are already well aware how linear your thought process can be at times. Like a 15yr old staring at tits.

So been busy but my favorite part of the weekend of games was when they interviewed the FG kicker who missed his kick as he came off he field and asked "What happened?" haha I still laugh when I think about it.

Anways, wasn't the greatest football played but we knew it wouldn't be. Rules were good though, I like their kickoffs and I'm sure players do too and production all around was surprisingly top notch. Week 1 I don't think could have went better for them and if they continue this route we may actually see a second season.

NY's QB at halftime saying they needed to change their whole offensive plan and calling out the coach on his playcalling was pretty funny.

Also I guess Chad Johnson is trying out to be a kicker? So, you know...that's a thing I guess.
