Recap

American Football XFL-style made its debut in Soldier Field in Chicago in freezing temperatures and drizzle on Saturday the 24th of February 2001, with only 14,856 to watch the match-up of the two winless teams after the first three weeks and it was New York / New Jersey Hitmen who went home the happiest, winning 13-0 thanks to two Leo Araguz Field Goals in the first and fourth quarters, and Joe Aska’s 1 yard run in the second.

The Hitmen survived a last-second second quarter threat to keep the 3-0 lead at halftime. Fans opinions were divided. One Chicago fan thought the Enforcers “stank” like the Bears while another thought there was nothing better than going to a Football game in Winter and having a beer and hotdog.
