The XFL has a QB problem. In that they don't have good QBs in the XFL.

Yeah I really wanted this thread to be about the Astros.
MLB should suspend all those dudes for a year at least and also give them a postseason ban. I can't get past the fact that the MLB told them to stop and they kept doing it.

I agree, these players have been proven to have cheated for years and to make matters worse this week they come off like arrogant narcissists who feel like they are the victims.  Commissioner has no backbone when he say he was afraid the players association would come after them and then what does that say about a players association that would defend players who cheated the rest of the association?  It's an easy solution, every Astros game during those seasons should go down as a forfeit, the players stats should be wiped out, their title should be taken away and none of those players should be allowed on the field this year if ever. Total scumbags.

Then ya hear some of them stating that they were approached about cheating but didn't do it themselves
1)  Don't believe ya didn't do it.
2)  Ya benefited from it so just as guilty.

I'm already sick of the current state of XFL coverage. I'm getting most, if not all of it, from NFL dominate media outlets and sources. It's all the same and hell, it trickles into pre-game, the broadcast, and post game - I do not give a shit if the league lasts. I don't care if it supplants the NFL.  I don't care how the product is, or looks, or develops. I can't enjoy something where my attention is constantly pulled from what i'm watching and genuinely interested in over to attendance. When the predominate speculation isn't about the players, the teams and the games but rather how many people need to show up next week; who's going to give a shit about that? I'm losing patience with it.

It's like letting your kid go on their bike with out training wheels for the first time - we want to take the moment in and just watch the kid ride, not listen to our partner psychoanalyse crashing and potential outcomes of getting hurt. We know it isn't going to be perfect, it isn't going to be pretty. The XFL is in this weird place where it's future is being discussed in the present live during games and it's already overshadowing their game. I'm excited about two wobbly pedals down the sidewalk - they're online posting the bike for sale...

Highlight Heaven on YouTube has the best coverage I can find - full game recaps with highlights. I love it. I'm not looking for the next big social thing; I don't need to get my friends on board to enjoy it; i'm not gonna be embarrassed if people don't like it. But I can't seem to dig in much deeper than that because I can't stomach hearing the history of tomorrow being written today - it's thick through XFL coverage.

... kind of a bad write up i know; I can't put my thoughts on it exactly - just tired of reading and hearing about "the business" at least twice a day from the biggest talking heads.

I'm not into the XFL either, BlackMagic. I think the reason I'm not into it is I associate the seasons with sports...this is college basketball time and I can't pull myself away from a good Big Ten game to watch minor league football players. I suppose the league is good for those who live and die by watching the pigskin, but in the few times I have tuned in, the football on the field was a snooze fest.
