what's political about a national anthem

Wyatt Sanders
neat, but it should start after the superbowl
Hudson Collins
shouldn't you be in bed norway
Jeremiah Morris
agreed
Evan Sanders
it's racist and sexist and transphobic and the only way to be neutral towards it is to join an aggressive political assault on it
Logan Morales
They should allow fighting like hockey used to
Andrew Gomez
Vince wants a family environment
Adam Edwards
Can't wait for a fucking anime ad to pop up during a timeout.

remove the pads and bring back leather helmets maybe face shields like hockey. make it more like rugby.
You got yourself a hit

He did say he would listen to the fans

The sports leagues put in the hoo rah anthem stuff after 9-11 to celebrate our wars abroad, carlos delgado got the same shit from people 15 years ago
Adam Brooks
Kinda hoping he starts it the week of the Pro Bowl... That would make it interesting.

This will be what ultimately causes what could have been a potentially smart idea to fail. Vince McMahon is not even a billionaire anymore, and he’s attempting to challenge an entire league where every single owner is a multi-billionaire.
He could have potentially acquired some powerful allies among current NFL owners who are disenchanted with Goodell like Jerry Jones, but the no franchise stipulation makes it so no NFL owner would ever have any reason to turncoat.
Oliver Morris
He wants it to be safe. Fuck off to UFC
Dylan Gonzalez
Drumpftards are so absolutely SEETHING over minorities protesting the anthem that they need: >a brand new league to serve as a safe space from the NFL >an arbitrary "no criminals" policy to ban a disproportionate amount of blacks from the league >a direct order from the league that the players should stand for the anthem >shorter games because of their brainlet attention span >completely new teams, all of which will likely be in southern rural shitholes >a commissioner and owner that is deep inside Drumpf's pocket >and a family-friendly game so they can power level about "muh wholesome Christian values".
Jason Rogers
It'd be pretty sweet if they added a bunch of weird rules. Make 30+ yard touchdowns worth 7 points instead of 6 or something like that.
Carter Fisher
If the experts he brings on are smart, the XFL will allow players out of high school to sign on. Will Ja'Quandrix Whittaker rather sign to Alabama, where he sits for 2 years, or would he rather sign a 3 year contract with the XFL, start every down, and go the the NFL draft?
Jeremiah Gomez
I think he'll eventually offer up franchises. The product is young, potential investors would want to see how things shake out.
This legit sounds dead on arrival. I don't see how he could make this an even remotely interesting product without waaaaaaaaaaay more money
Levi Hall

Why do you want criminals on the field?
Andrew Brown
>>an arbitrary "no criminals" policy to ban a disproportionate amount of blacks from the league Why are a disproportionate amount of blacks criminals?
Hunter Collins
Its almost like this faggot wants AA in sports.
Colton Scott
>"no criminal" policy >bans a disproportionate amount of blacks
What did he mean by this?
Carter Perry
Already a NEW, migrate:
Colton Gonzalez
NFL is overproduced schlock anyway. I think a lot of people will be interested in watching this. I'm sure he learned a lot of things from the old XFL and will be better prepared, plus it's the age of social media.
Lucas Anderson
>extreme football league >be ultra safe and protection oriented >family friendly >no players with any criminal record whatsoever
Sounds pretty extreme
Jose Ramirez
>MUH THREAD WARS fucking kill yourself holy shit
Elijah Nguyen
He's a racist who thinks every black is a criminal
Juan Nelson
>implying having a criminal record automatically makes you a bad person The man himself said even minor crimes will get you banned from the league. It's pretty clearly nothing more than a way to keep those pesky black folks out, just like "literacy" tests were used to stop them from voting. It's fucking sad that we've already gone back to this disgusting way of thinking.
Leo Moore
Please don't link the /asp/ containment thread here
Christian Johnson
Nobody cares about your shit thread
Robert Rivera
Its a meme tho. No one is going to just immediately stop watching the super bowl to watch some shit startup league. This has been attempted many times and they've all failed in the same way.
Adrian Wilson
I'M SO FUCKING READY
Julian Murphy
I could see why you would think it's a meme but Vince isn't making a carny out of this the way he did before. The man isn't stupid and sees an opportunity here. You really underestimate just how many people would tune in for political reasons only at first, it's exactly how trump got elected, the silent majority will tune in.
Ryder Rodriguez
they've done the anthem at games forever, underage faggot
Joseph Miller
Maybe the Black players shouldn't commit crimes then.
Aiden Hall
Charleston doesn't really have a stadium to play in. Columbia would make more sense... Unless you were talking about WV
Robert James
Hahahahah Nigga Just Dont Break The Law Hahahahaha How Is That Even Hard Hahah Just Dont Do Crime Nigga
Luke Watson

who's ready for the meme event of our lifetime?
Josiah Ortiz
Who hurt you?
Grayson Gray
Columbia is the capital, but Charleston is the Carolina city people think of.
Justin Wilson
My thoughts exactly. Trying to make a wholesome? patriotic? competitor to the NFL is a foolish endeavor. It’s as if the anthem protests were the entire basis for this concept. It will fail because football is entertainment and it’s not entertaining to watch mediocre football.
I’d be interested in a professional league that could draft kids right out of high school a la the soccer leagues of Europe. For all the talk of whether or not college athletes should be paid, a professional league featuring younger athletes would be a fascinating turn of events.
Or a league featuring innovative rule changes, such as the USFL, which gave us the 2 pt conversion.
Jonathan Adams
what kind of utter faggot puts question marks in the middle of his sentences
Levi Reed
Imagine Saban's face when his entire recruiting class gets bought out by Vince. Imagine the salt.
Lincoln Allen
You can be patriotic while still paying high school kids
Charles Collins
SEETHING
Jeremiah Davis
stop breaking the law idiot
Samuel Ramirez
Vince working the SEC into a shoot will be great.
Henry Rogers
San Diego has no stadium, that's why they lost the Chargers. They're not even sure where San Diego State is gonna play in a few years.
It'll likely be something more like East: New York, Orlando, Memphis, St. Louis West: San Antonio, LA, Portland, Oakland/San Jose
Landon Brown
>it’s not entertaining to watch mediocre football. >a professional league featuring younger athletes would be a fascinating turn of events. he contradicts himself
Jonathan Scott
As much as I like the idea of the NFL receiving some comeuppance, it doesn’t inspire much confidence that Vince McMahon is the guy leading the push to challenge it.
He’ll insist on having control of everything which will repulse any investors from buying in to the XFL. This will have about as much of a chance of success as LaVar Ball trying to bring down Nike with BBB.
Carson Rivera
Vince said there is gonna be eight teams starting off, obviously they wont try to compete directly with the NFL so where do you think they will put the teams? I think it will go something like this 1. San Diego 2. St. Louis 3. Albuquerque 4. Sacramento 5. Salt lake city 6. Orlando 7. Birmingham 8. Oklahoma City
Jacob Young
>Football is an alternative sport
Arschloch

>turning down a free college education to make 30k a year in a league the has already failed onnce Even niggers aren't that dumb.
Grayson Kelly
Oakland and St. Louis need new teams. Perfect opportunity.
Joseph Cook
What if I told you lavar is creating his own league
Caleb Martin
i agree, but Vince has a long career in entertainment and 100M invest... lavar has $15 dollars and an ugly logo (and now 2 kids in eastern europe)
Ayden Price
>an ugly logo looks some someone is a microballer
Hudson Lewis
honkeys do too
Andrew Jones
whats the point in making in offbrand spinoff of a dying sport?
Ethan Richardson
i get florida, california and even texas, but why the fuck would huehues go to all those redneck states?
Dylan Wright
if he can pay 100k it might work
Julian Reed
It'll be in York County and they'll consider it a Charlotte-area team.
Joshua Powell
At least honkeys have a family to fight with
Wyatt Cox
White families fight too, usually over incest related stuff
Aiden Mitchell
Dying league not a dying sport

twitter.com/JManziel2/status/956620385784553472 fuck nfl general. we out here boys. we finally made it. >vince excluding players with DUI's? I really wanted to see manziel play in the XFL but if this is the price to keep niggers out Im all for it. let the nfl have the Joe Mixons of the world breaking little girls jaws for not sucking dick then kneeling when they get to a game. all white, samoan, and church black league is gonna be fucking awesome.
Camden Sullivan
>Wichita I wish. We aren't big enough for a major sports team. I think in 10 years we will be.
Mason King
Why is he calling it the XFL if it's not going to be Xtreme?
Cameron Evans
I think you are supposed to go for the lack of father figure there, Blacks still get raised in "families" just no dad and mostly single mothers.
Jonathan Gonzalez
Birmingham and Orlando had XFL teams before, Oklahoma and Sacramento have NBA teams only, St. Louis and San Diego lost their NFL teams, and Albuquerque and Salt Lake I chose because I had to have 8 teams
Charles Russell
There should be a couple foreign teams. London, Berlin, Mexico City, Sydney would give it something unique over the nfl
Hudson Torres
XTREMEly safe and family friendly :)
Logan King
Yeah, that wouldn't cost way more and be super logistically awful to impose or anything like that.
This is why this is going to fail. He's leaving it up to fans to decide how to burn his money.
Xavier Parker
i'm not even bavarian (i'm swabian), but bavarians are, next to us, the most wealthy, productive and conservative people in this country

Elijah Ward
I think it could work as CFL South
Being streamed on the WWE network for a monthly fee with cheap "get to know the players," "welcome to charleston" kind of content can be neat (no proof they're doing this), and although I don't think it's romanticized to the same extent minor league sports are at least as strong as lower league britbong soccer.
