| 0:00.0 | This is the best of outkick the coverage with Clay Travis on Fox Sports Radio. |
| 0:07.0 | It's kind of a quiet time in the world of sports as we come up on the Christmas holiday, |
| 0:14.1 | but I do think there's one really big story out there. |
| 0:18.0 | And that is the rumored return of the XFL. |
| 0:23.0 | My guy Darren Revelle, who I like a lot of the ESPN, reported a story that Vince McMahon |

| 1:33.8 | longer than one season like the XFL did back in the day? |
| 1:39.1 | And so here are my ideas. |
