The same thing that kills all these leagues is lack of star power. Who are the must see players? Until they can attract some names of interest the XFL is doomed to fail, yet again.

It may last the season, wouldn't be shocked if it didn't tho

Anyone else notice the games flowed better as the refs kept their flags in their pockets more often than the NFL refs did? I saw quite a few nasty hits that even if perfectly within the rules would have drawn a flag in an NFL game but did not in this past weekends XFL action.

The XFL can build its star power. Its hard to have star power after only one game. The difference between the XFL and the AAF is that the XFL has a strong financial backing which can, if nothing else, buy time for star power to develop.

And the XFL has Fox / ESPN , the AAF only had NBC Sports networks so that also helps
