Plus, who's putting an 18 year old kid up against a 28 year old NFL or CFL veteran and expecting him to "win" ANY type of battle?
What is the incentive for Netflix or Amazon to partner up with a league that's only taking Choirboys for a 2 hour football game?
This league is going to be far, far below the standards of the CFL and the FBS, let alone, the NFL.
It's going to be a massive trainwreck.

Completely agree. This will be a train wreck on an epic scale.
The original XFL was a train wreck that bombed in the ratings and was cancelled after one season,
and that was BEFORE CTE and #MeToo. McMahon tried to sell the original XFL on Extreme Violence and Extreme Sexuality, and all he actually delivered was He Hate Me and boring minor league football.
And now he says nobody with any kind of criminal record will be allowed to play in the new XFL?

He NEEDS players like Manziel and Kaepernick to have any chance at all, and he just eliminated both of them.
Vince McMahon is a senile old man with more money than he knows what to do with and a desperate need for attention. If I were one of his heirs, I'd be pissed.
