The XFL was a glorified Minor League football league with mainstream media coverage. It was the same damn thing as any football league. There was really no difference, where the hell did they get off calling it x-treme. Seems like these days my knitting grandmother can be considered 'x-treme'. I saw a computer game called X-treme scooter the other day, where you ride around on a Razor Scooter.
People are sick of football.
The biggest reason was that most of the players were arrested or died of drug overdoses, most of the teams did not have a large enough returning roster to support the massive amount of injuries suffered by XFL players. I'm thinking that if you hold on to your XFL gear for about 10 years it will be worth at least 50 cents to a junkie visiting your garage sale. The Memphis Maniax was a great XFL team back in the day. I knows, I played Tight End for dem, until I took a late hit while getting a drink of water on da sideline, dat shit was extreme, fractad my skull and gave me bray demage. I give you fiddy cent.
