Personally I'm kind of angry about AAF. They pop up out of nowhere after Vince's announcement and happen to be lead by Vince's previous AAF business partner, it feels like a petty move to undermine Vince, and then rush to market with perhaps the dumbest allocation rules I've ever seen. It's very strange.
I won't care about any of them if the end product is garbage, but it's been pretty impressive how much AAF has gotten done, from cities to coaches to the first 100+ players already signed up.

Meanwhile the XFL has hired a CEO and looks like it will need the full 2 years to spin up operations at their current pace.
