-WHAT WILL BE DIFFERENT? (20/20)
DO WE NEED MORE FOOTBALL? MORE SPORTS?
-10 PLAYERS
-MANZIEL, GREG HARDY, ALDON SMITH, MARSHAWN, TEBOW,
-FAMILY FRIENDLY:
This marks the WWE Chair & CEO’s second attempt at creating a pro football league, but this version will look dramatically different from the one that launched in ’01 and lasted for just one season -- especially in the way McMahon markets it. Rather than relying on WWE-style marketing that emphasized sex and violence, McMahon suggested that this new version will be more wholesome and family friendly. So much so, in fact, that the new XFL will have no cheerleaders. It will not hire players who have arrest records, McMahon said. And it will make sure that all of its players stand for the national anthem, a policy that stands in stark contrast to the NFL. The more family friendly XFL even comes through in the league’s new red-white-and-blue logo, as opposed to ‘01’s in-your-face black-and-red one. “We want to entertain -- that’s what we do,” McMahon told THE DAILY. “There are not going to be any politics involved with this thing. We’re not going to have any social issues involved. People want to be entertained. ... It’s the entertainment value that sometimes is lost.” In fact, the idea that players will be able to express their individuality also is an open question. The XFL’s most famous player is Rod Smart, a player known for years only by his nickname “He Hate Me.” McMahon said even that legacy from the ’01 XFL is up for debate. “It depends on what the audience wants and how important we think that is,” he said. “All options are open.”

"He was searching for me. He was looking to try to get me back because he was still in his feelings from the first half. That's what's been going on around the league the whole year. A bunch of that, you know what I'm saying?"
