I remember when I was a kid I liked the NJ Hitmen and I never even watched a XFL game. It will be the same the XFL will fail again.
I had Hitmen season tickets. I regret nothing. It was football on meth. Would 100% go to games again.
In my opinion, the XFL succeeding is all about keeping the game itself the same (or similar) while expanding into territories that would die for a team. That's how the CFL has stayed around while others have folded...Saskatchewan has nothing else but that CFL team. It's also how we can have several Soccer leagues globally, and a few different forms of Rugby in Australia. Creating a league that's built upon competing with established leagues in major markets is a recipe for failure.
