The NFL took from other leagues before. Those cameras hanging over the field for alternate views were an XFL idea. The names on the backs of jerseys came from the old AFL. The NFL keeps threatening to take away an exciting part of the game -- the kickoff -- because they want to avoid injuries. The XFL has figured out how to do kickoffs without having players run full speed down the field, building up a bunch of momentum and then crashing into the runner. IMO, the XFL way of doing it could work, and it would preserve the kickoffs.
