Teams/Cities coming when they come

Post by MarkNelson »

You can never trust a rumor. If it was information you could trust it would not be called a rumor.

The teams/cities announcement will come when it comes.

So how are they this late in the process and STILL we have no idea where teams are playing, let alone team names?

I think they know exactly where they will play, but are not ready to make an announcement today.

If they don’t have cities ready to go that’s really worrying, I hope they do

I think unlike 2020 where they had 2 years of lead time and Big Markets for TV as the goal, the XFL 3.0 goals are more immediate. They are looking for cities that are cheaper to operate in, have available times and leases and in states where they can get Workers Comp Ins. Plus they seem to be looking at cities complimentary to the USFL (esp being Dallas/SA/Houston, and West coast (Seattle/LV) and Stlouis is a natural for tix reveune. DC and Orlando compliment NJ/Philly and TB in USFL. And by compliment I mean more from a biz point - ie reduced travel.

We'll see what they do, but my gut says that's not by accident.

It seems the XFL has sputtered to a stop. Their new motto is "More stall, less ball"
Fan of the XFL from the beginning. You may remember me from the original XFLboard.
