You are right, I had a brain cramp counting months. But I disagree with you about the NFL pre-season not being an impediment. IMO once training camps open, people are going to be more inclined to tune into the NFL network than the XFL games. Also, you are now looking at competing with the entire NHL and NBA playoffs. I stand by my beliefs, it will never fly.
