The league did not say when it would begin play, though it did say the first 10 teams would be the San Diego Warriors, Oklahoma City Power, Portland Progress, Texas Revolution, Ohio Players, Florida Strong, Birmingham Kings, St. Louis Independence, Connecticut Underground and Oakland Panthers.

[DiggityDaggityDo]

Will T.O. Be playing?

[sheedy17]

Should of merged or contacted Vince McMahon, a strong XFL could be big, I cant see a third league working, XFL might get a chance due to the name value

[jjgold]

Well these leagues will fail sports to flooded now

[advantageU]

they are 40 years late and this business plan must be product of being hit too hard and too often on the head

[mpaschal34]

Will T.O. Be playing?

Certainly can’t be an investor. His net worth is $100k (this is after earning $80M is salary and endorsements).

[Bluehorseshoe]

Wow those are some terrible team names

Most names sound like they have something to do with "gay pride".

[DiggityDaggityDo]

They gonna give Kap a chance?

[spro23]

NFL seats are empty who do they think will pay to see an even worse product.

I dont see that big 3 basketball thing working either.
