It was a completely new kind of product with stripper cheerleaders, hot tubs on the sideline, crazy rules, etc. Tons of people tuned in to see what it was about. Also, the promotion of the league online and on television was insane. There was nobody who hadn't heard of the XFL come kick off. McMahon made sure of that. The AAF was announced last year, and there was hardly any promoting of it online, or on tv. There were people on this board who had no idea a league even started. As for the gameplay...it's no different than giving a new HC some time. The o-lines, and QB play especially, [B][I]should [/I][/B]leave a lot to be desired after playing together for just a few months, and absolutely ZERO games. I imagine we're going to see a lot of low scoring sloppy games for a bit. [/QUOTE]
