Big Daddy 69 deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.

2020 XFL Top selling jerseys: BIG DADDY 69 HE HATE ME TEABAGGER

Fun fact: Big Daddy 69 (real name Jerry Crafts) is now the offensive line coach for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

That skycam revolutionized the way we watch football... Gotta at least give them XFL credit for that...

The XBA- the hoops are only 8 feet high and 2 feet in diameter, half court shots are worth 10, instead of free throws you get tossed an alley oop into a slam dunk The XLB- steroids required, outfield fences can be no more than 350 feet away, home plate collisions mandatory even if there’s no play, bat flips required or else the player will be called out The XHL- literally just fistfights for 3 periods, last man standing wins

God bless Vince McMahon's ability to hide an empty crowd.

The xfl should always only ever have one season every 20 years

"Give football back to the fans" You don't even listen to the fans of your primary business.

Technically, it was also the best XFL Championship.

My dad was a Coordinator for the Bolts. He says it’s the most fun he’s had coaching a team despite how bad the Bolts were

If the XFL is coming back I want Big Daddy 69 back as well

To make a point here, Jesse Ventura, at the time, was GOVERNOR OF MINNESOTA.

Okay, that punt rule is awesome.

Are you not gonna mention that at the time of this game, Jesse Ventura was STILL Governor of Minnesota??? Yes, a high profile politician is on the other side of the country from the state he's in charge of covering this dumpster fire of a game. This was the XFL

Fun fact: LA's kicker ended up becoming a cop in Oregon, and then got fired for molesting a drunk woman on a traffic stop.

The XFL really truly is cursed. Five weeks of good-to-great football, cue global pandemic, season shutdown, and the league folds again.

That said, the only XFL final was the best one too.

#69 Big Daddy is my mf'ing SPIRIT ANIMAL.

The XFL is a league that was meant for the meme era...ahead of its time really

To troll the XFL, the day after their championship game (if they make it that far) you should do "The Best XFL Championship Game" and just rerelease this video.

*LA Xtreme* : *The only LA team capable of beating Brady and the Patriots*

0/10, not enough Big Daddy 69

leatherwood and wilcox sounds like a 70's police drama

Fun fact: Jesse Ventura was literally the governor of Minnesota while calling this game

I bet the xfl would of played sweet victory

It's a nice filler episode while they're remaking the Worst Super Bowl Ever video.

Vince McMahon looks like a spokesman for scientology

RIP XFL Mark 2. See you again in 2039!

"A blown-out tire got its wish to be human" Best McMahon description to date

*Where can I get my BIG DADDY 69 replica Jersey ???* 🔥🔥💯👍

"Big game at the end" The equivalent of the effort of a last minute essay

"The California Showdown" was not packed at all. The cameramen literally asked the fans to huddle together and so it looked like a packed stadium

Well, you guys had to fill in the day that had no video somehow huh

*Title of the video:* the only XFL Championship was also the worst *Me:* "But, it was also the greatest sooooo....."

“They went for a field goal attempt but completely botched that and it ended in an interception” Definitely some quality football

I want to know more about the cheerleaders. What seasoned industry professional was like yes, I will coach a cheer squad for this league?? Who auditioned to cheer for these teams?? Someone had to do choreo and get uniforms and figure out all kinds of performance logistics for this to happen??? I'm just imagining all the work of creating a spirit squad from the ground up plus the chaos of the xfl and I have questions

Well… Logically speaking by default , wouldn’t this also have been the best XFL championship game?

'Really carrying the torch Josh...' SAVAGE

I found an original XFL football in the closet of the house we just purchased... Talk about timing..

Well at least they finished their season. I'm looking at you AAF!

the XFL will succeed in the modern culture if they work with 2K Sports and create a great video game!

Say what you will about the NFL, but at least nobody has ever gotten injured immediately prior to the opening kickoff.

R.I.P XFL 2.0 2020- 5 Weeks later in 2020 You will surely be missed

If "Idiocracy" was a sport then it would be the XFL.

6:59 sums up the XFL pretty nicely

"A blown out tire got it's wish to be human." LOL poor Vince...

SB Nation: The Only XFL Championship XFL: *laughs in double forward pass*

Big Daddy 69, what an absolute legend.

SB Nation, I need a closure to that fencing match between Jon Bois and all of the video staff. Is it over ?

The only thing you messed up was misreading “H-Back” as “Halfback”. A halfback is a running back, whereas an H-back is a tight end. These guys were tight ends

6:14 So you like the Josh Wilcox elbow-drop? Well that's probably because not only was he a professional football player, he was a pro-wrestler as well. And not only is his dad in the NFL Hall of Fame, his brother is the head coach at Cal.

It’s back..... and better than ever......

I think its a strange coincidence that every time the XFL has a season, something terrible happens. In 2001, we had the terrorist attack at the World Trade Center, and in 2020 we had the COVID-19 pandemic.

You’re dissing this, but this looked entertaining as hell 😂

The Gatorade bath with five minutes to go in the 4th quarter defines this league

Well, it seems Vince McMahon learned something from this failure. One of the core reasons the XFL failed was because it tried to inject more violence into a sport that didn't need any more violence. The new XFL will have no cheerleaders, no two man scrum to determine first possession, and no rules that inspire more violence than the NFL already has. Also, I doubt this league has any wrestling partenerships. Instead, this new XFL is supposed to be a simpler and faster version of the NFL. Here are some of its rule changes Kickoffs come from the 30 yard line. However, all of the players from the kick coverage team start from the receiving team's 35 yard line and the blockers start from their own team's ten yard line. Furthermore, only the kicker and kick returner can move until the kick returner has the ball. This is meant to decrease injuries without turning every kickoff into a touchback. Punting teams cannot use gunners and any coffin corner kick is brought back to the receiving team's 35 yard line. This rule is intended to encourage teams to go for it more on fourth downs. Teams are allowed to throw two forward passes on a play provided that they aren't thrown past the line of scrimmage. The clock moves continuously, except on two minute warnings. Before you think that it makes games too short, know that all the helmets have radios so the offensive coordinator can inform all the players about his play without the need of a huddle. This means that a higher percentage of the game is the players, well, playing football. There is a Sky Judge who reviews all the plays. Even the NFL should have a referee whose sole job is instant replay. And of course, the rule for 1, 2, and 3 point PATs (with one point being a play from the two yard line, two points being a play from the five yard line, and three points being a play from the ten yard line) have been rolled over from the original XFL. It was one of the few things that league did correctly. I hope these rule changes and more can create an entertaining football league

TALK ABOUT SLAMBALL SB NATION

Still better than this Superbowl

The highlight of the new XFL is gonna be Vontaze Burfict bringing a gun on the field like it's The Last Boy Scout

"Premature but fair" cracks me up every time I watch this

2020 people. It comes back

Is Jon Bois gonna come back when the XFL comes back?

XFL Still doesn't have a second championship.

“They completely botched the field goal, which ended with an interception”. This. This is football.

The 25-yard punt rule wasn't a terrible idea either - the Canadian game has something similar and it definitely makes kicking more interesting.

Who's here after the surprisingly good Day 1 kickoff of the new XFL? #ForTheLoveOfFootball

Well I guess we can now say at least the XFL had a Championship game unlike the AAF

That Vince McMan burn at the beginning is legend !

And now,The XFLs first week was a success!!!! It was fun!!!!

Maybe the next time Vince McMahon tries to restart the XFL, he should predetermine the winners and apply kayfabe. After all, given the success of WWE, he seems to have a pretty good handle on fake sports. It's real ones he can't be trusted with.

Glad you included the sky cam. Because that was something the XFL pioneered that the NFL jacked.

6:48 I think teams OUT OF PLAYOFF CONTENTION when they play late games..THIS SHOULD BE A THING

I once had the opportunity to see an XFL game at Soldier Field in February. I was like, nah...I'm good.

Love this channel!!! Keep it up guys

I can’t believe I was actually there right behind the cheerleaders in mid field good times lol

I love that they brought in/installed a WWE style “Titantron” and pyro for every game!

The XFL can work out if they do it right. If they make the age limit 18 it could potentially be an alternative for 5 && 4star athletics that want to get paid right away which would be great for the kids && the league. I REALLY hope it works out cuz itd be fun to have.

According to “The 6th Day” XFL is going to be huge here soon.

I like how the old xfl had cities such as Memphis, Orlando, Birmingham had teams

I’m a big fan of this narrator. He’s actually really funny. Love the channel and it’s content!

Why be sarcastic when saying “way to carry the torch, Josh”. What’s wrong with playing in a semi-pro league? Where have you played?

"and his mic is being fed to the crowd...who would think o doing that?" The answer is Vincent Kennedy McMahon (who I would play the theme music for..But this is a text comment).

I remember my mom got me an XFL jersey for Christmas. I didn’t have the heart to tell her I was embarrassed to wear it to school. So I told her someone stole it from my gym class locker. When in fact i had buried it in the garbage can.

man, Will talking about rewinding a certain topic in sport, thats a really great idea, you guys should make a show about it :-)

So... when are you going to update the worst Superbowl???

The XFL is here now and it’s actually pretty good

Probably what I remember the most from the XFL is the theoretical future presented in the Schwarzenegger flick "The Sixth Day" with the XFL being the premiere football league. I wonder how much was paid for that product placement.

you should do the worst CFL seasons... the 2 years they tried to expand to the US. all the US teams except one were extremely poorly managed. at least two didn't play on fields that were big enough for example, and teams were folding and relocating all over the place. and that one exception? they had to change names before playing a game because they took the name of an NFL team

The Worst Grey Cup? I mean if you're gonna do non-NFL football videos why not the league up north?

Accurate XFL (=Xpletive Football League) slogan: It sucked back then, and it sucks forever!

Honestly I like the idea of the as the game is happening live interviews and the punt rules.

Vince McMahon spent most of the fortune he'd made on the WWF Attitude Era on the XFL. The rest he spent on the failed WWF Times Square Restaurant. His son Shane McMahon had instead suggested that Vince purchase the UFC, which was struggling at the time and had a very affordable price tag.

I was young when the XFL title game happened, but I remember this game being very exciting. A high scoring close game if my memory serves. EDIT: Then I watched the vid and I guess my memory does not serve. I could have swore both teams had high 20s-mid 30s in point totals... huh

Big Daddy 69 > Gronk

Unmentioned was that announcer and former professional wrestler, Jesse Ventura, was also the current governor of Minnesota. He was not reelected.

I remember having an xfl football when i was a kid, brought back a ton of nostalgia seeing it again

it is now no longer the only one

The interviews that everyone in the stadium can hear are just the way WWE does their interviews lol

Great job!

This should be a hype video i cant wait for this
