Check this out at www.xfl.com :
============================= WWFE and NBC to discontinue XFL World Wrestling Federation Entertainment, Inc. in conjunction with its joint venture partner, NBC, announced Thursday that it will discontinue its professional football league, the XFL. The decision was made after determining that theadditional investment required to further develop the XFL was not commensurate with the potential return and the risk inherent in pursuing the venture. ============================ Personally, I could care less, I hate football.. I like Baseball.. Anyway, too bad NBC axed Pretender to have XFL on.. Pretender was cool.. TNT had a Pretender movie a few months ago though.. pretty good!! Ziroc |

IF Vince had gone to HBO and done it his way, he might have had an audiance. now, all it was was a good tax right off. I like all sports, and football is one of the ones I watch, but I couldn't stomach XFL, either.

Couldnt agree with you more, Z! Baseball is fine, Football is not my cup of tea and XFL? BLECH! I saw a few episodes of Pretender and thought it was pretty good.

Oh, come on now! This is a major tragedy! What is our fine and dignified Governor, Jesse "The Mind"
 Ventura, going to do with his spare time?  Well, I guess there is always refereeing WWF bouts (or whatever they are called).  [This message has been edited by onthepequod (edited 05-15-2001).] |

I am so glad that stupid XFL is gone. It's bad enough that the WWF and Jerry Springer are the mainstays of trailer park entertainment, but to try to marry that with football is an abomination. Good riddance!

Crappy football. I can't stand Pro Baseball. Bunch of WHINY PRIMADONNAS. Major League baseball lost me after the last strike. Minor league can be fun to watch though. I'm going to take my daughter to a game next month. Now football, ah theres a sport. Especially College football and most especially SEC football. GO VOLS!!! And Peyton Manning is the MAN!!! GO COLTS and TITANS!!! ------------------ Sir Taliesin If they take my gun can I still use my Claymore? |

About time they got rid of it. Damn, no more free lobotomies. That was the worst piece of @#$% that was ever released upon an unsuspecting public.
