Some of the games are still available on YouTube, and the footage is something else. The quality of play is on par with an above-average high school game, yet overblown production values make it look like a football set piece in a Michael Bay movie. It's the sports world's Idiocracy, except that it actually happened.

I remember two things about the xfl, the players were undertrained/undertalented causing a majority of plays to start with a false start/offsides flag.

No one bothered to tell the refs it was "less rules football" so you typically had 5 flags thrown for every 2 plays slowing things down and making it less fun to watch than NFL.

Yeah the whole thing had a hilarious high school feel to the whole thing, except Vince tried the wrap the whole concept in WWF style cheesiness.

The scramble would be cool as hell if it wasn't so dangerous for the players.

Bonus points if you just make it a drunk fan of each team.

Should steal idea for NFl, especially for Eagles or Raiders games.
