Vince McManne squeezes XFL out of the dust in 2020
26.01.2018
Vince McManne will sink the dust from the rumbling XFL and try again to catch up with a piece of the delicious banquet of American football. The 72-year-old billionaire who owns the dominant WWE jacket will restart his league in 2020. But unlike megaphone in 2001, this time there will be no half-naked models in the Jacuzzi near the endos, nor Jesse Ventura as a commentator. McMan promises everything you want to see and less than what you do not want.
Our league will be far from politics, away from social problems. We will be dealing with football. We want to watch good football, as fans, McMane said in the presentation of the project.
In the new XFL, which will include eight teams in yet unnamed cities, players with a criminal record will not be allowed. According to McMean, captured drunk drivers have no place in his League, and each player will be forced to stand up for the performance of the US anthem.
As far as the field rules are concerned, the XFL will aim to limit the length of the matches to two hours. For this purpose there will be no break between half time and between the second and third part the teams will only exchange their halves for an advertising pause time.
The original XFL lasted for two and a half months;from February 3 to April 21, 2001. In the Los Angeles title defeated San Francisco with 38:6, but after the financial balance was made and it turned out that the league lost over $ 70, 000, 000, the experiment was discontinued.
