    Can't you smell the excitement? 26 hours until kickoff.

    I wonder how the XP rules are going to affect setting lines. The standard score differentials aren't going to happen.

    Anyone have details on the TV deal the XFL negotiated? One of the things that ate into the AAF's capital is that they were paying for the time on CBS, curious if it's a similar deal with the XFL.

    Anything less than this will be unforgivable:

    "There will be no rights fees paid by the networks, but both ESPN and Fox will hold the streaming rights to games and will handle cross-promotion plus the selling of advertisements."

    They have the betting line and the over/under on the score graphic. Interesting.

    Watching the DC team on ABC. They are playing at the Soccer stadium in Southwest DC, Audi Field where the DC United play. 20-25k capacity. Great place to watch and have the game. FEDEx is in a horrible location in the worst suburbs in America. College Park would produce no walk-in traffic.

    This hasn't been a bad game at all.
