And? XFL didn't invent the stupid directly overhead skycam AAF uses, and they definitely didn't use it during play.

Cmon man, the XFL didn't use the overhead cam to show plays from the snap like the AAF was doing earlier today. The game tonight is better.
Fan of the XFL from the beginning. You may remember me from the original XFLboard.

The XFL did use the SkyCam to show plays from the snap. (Here's the first snap in league history: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioh3dXJnzws&t=910s) But no one is required to like anything just because the XFL did it in 2001. I don't care for it as the primary angle either.

That clip reminds me that I didn't like the cameramen on the field either.
It's gettin' hot in here...and we about to burn 'em up!

Looks like the 2020 XFL champion may be 2-3 seconds short of playing a full season :?

And have you watched NFL games?......I assume you all do......and guess what you see? The NFL of course never divulges exactly where the innovations they add come from.
