TV ratings dropped like a rock. People like watching football - as long as it wasn't bad football.
But considering these guys were, for the most part, washed up/never rans who didn't get much practice time in, is it a surprise noone wanted to watch?
I tried watching, but it was pretty painful. On a funny side note, though - the "behind the QB" cam that the NFL uses was first used in the XFL. They just waited a year after the XFL folded to not seem like they were stealing a nice idea.
