GT Players and the New XFL

Anyone notice that the color scheme has changed from black, red, silver/grey to red, white, and blue? They are definitely going to push the patriotic angle.
 
The promo package said the XFL will be faster, safer (somehow) and with simpler rules. He also said there wouldn't be any politics and hinted that players will have to stand for the anthem. He also said that there will be no players with criminal records, even a DUI. Basically, he took the whole list of complaints that people have about the NFL and claimed to offer something different. He had no answers to any specific questions, though. I suspect it's going to be football for the older, Fox News crowd. No offense to the older, Fox News crowd.[/QUOniTE

Half of my friends have a DUI on their record and most of them are successful professionals now. I wonder how this approach will impact the talent pool from which they are able to draw players?
 
If they play summertime football, those games better be at night.
 
I wager this is driven by the anthem kneeling thing driving down some of the NFL's engagement level. McMahon even said in his press release that people don't want politics invading their entertainment.

Still going to fail, unless they start ganking high school players.
 
Im holding out for the return of the USFL
