The XFL promised to give us something different, and they definitely delivered.
The reincarnation of the league debuted on Saturday with a game between Seattle and DC. One of the notable features about the league was the amount of interaction between players/coaches and reporters. Sometimes players would get interviewed on the sidelines immediately after a play.
That happened after one of Seattle’s players committed an unnecessary roughness penalty on a third down in the second quarter. After the penalty, center Dillon Day was interviewed and dropped an F-bomb that ABC/ESPN failed to censor before it went out over the air.

People watching the game heard the F-bomb and many posted it on social media.
And as if that weren’t enough, there was a punt block recovered for a touchdown on the next play. Welcome to the XFL.
