The NFL season has just come to an end, which can only mean one thing: it’s time for the XFL season to begin. They have teams. They have names. They have uniforms, and coaches, and rosters. They have stadiums, and tickets have been sold, broadcast deals worked out. Are you ready for some (Xtreme) football?
The XFL is the second upstart league in as many years to attempt to initiate a power play to fill the gap left in the winter and spring months between the end of the NFL season and the beginning of the next. The last one was a spectacular failure.
