Episode 73 - The XFL/CFL News Hub Crossover!
It's the holiday CROSSOVER event of the year! XFL and CFL News Hub editor Mark Perry joins us on the show to run down the latest CFL, XFL and USFL news.
Mark Perry makes his long-awaited appearance on The Markcast to answer YOUR XFL, CFL and USFL questions and to predict what will happen for all three of the leagues heading in 2022 and beyond. Where will the XFL 2022 home cities be and what will the teams be called? What XFL teams might be returning and what XFL might not? We tackle these pressing questions as well and try to pin down the TV networks best suited to host the XFL in 2023 opposite a possible year 2 of the USFL in the impeding SPRING FOOTBALL WARS!!!
Then, lots of CFL off-season movements are taking place, we track the latest hires for the Toronto Argonauts, the Edmonton Elks and signings for the BC Lions. We look at Richie Leone’s comments about the lack of social media marketing for the CFL, talk through some notable CFL team releases and make fun of the Bengals/Ravens for having too many men on the field.
There’s also some very interesting XFL intrigue potentially unfolding as the XFL looks to patent the coach-player communications system created by XFL rules inventor Sam Schwartzstein in the original XFL. Also, EVERYone thinks the St. Louis Battlehawks are returning and we chat through what would possibly be the least shocking announcement ever when the XFL finally unveils their plans for 2023 and beyond.
From all of us at The Markcast, whether you are a CFL, XFL or USFL fan, happy holidays and here’s to a fresh, new, and exciting 2022 in the world of alternative football! Make sure to like and subscribe to stay up to date!
