At 2:00 this afternoon, the XFL will kick off its inaugural season and the biggest question is whether or not you should invest your time and watch it. It is a hard question to answer and really comes down to how much you crave football after the NFL folded the 2019 season and is preparing for 2020.
The XFL has eight teams playing and one team that is made up of “farm players”. The “9th team” is intended to be used as a filler team to the other eight as injuries happen. They won’t actually play games.
The eight teams that are hoping to stick around longer than a season or two are located around the country.
