RE: What's the tv value of the AAF and XFL?
Charlie sold fans on the idea of free steaming and an app with all sorts of bells and whistles that was supposed to change the way we watch football.

The fantasy seems to be non-existent on the app and they certainly did not give enough lead to time for fans to set leagues up, draft players, etc.

I was able to get a free streaming feed from their website during the Arizona-Salt Lake game but it was literally one camera with no graphics or commentators and the feed kept getting lost.

The game feature where you supposedly can guess the next play and earn points or whatever doesn't appear to exist either.

While a little glitchy, I did like the feature on the app that showed you where the players were. My wife thought it was pretty funny when someone stood too close to the sideline and randomly came into play.

I was happy to get to have some football in the off season and while lopsided, they seemed to be pretty good quality. I love that there are no PATs and I think the rest of the game needs to adopt this. The game seemed pretty well paced and went a lot faster than an NFL or college game. I wasn't terribly enamored with the lack of kickoffs but that on its own I don't see as a huge turn off.

I don't think it bodes well for the league that sold us on their technology advancements and in game fan experience that hardly any of it seems to be operational. I'm also a little worried about how poorly attended some of the games were, particularly Arizona.

Anyone else have similar experiences with AAF week 1?
