New York/New Jersey Hitmen
The Only Season
The New York/New Jersey Hitmen were a short-lived American football team based in the Giants Stadium of the Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
This team was part of the failed XFL begun by Vince McMahon of the World Wrestling Federation and by NBC, a major television network in the United States.
They were part of the Eastern Division with the Birmingham Thunderbolts, Orlando Rage and Chicago Enforcers. They finished in 3rd place with a 4–6 record.
NBC dropped the XFL concept after the first season 2001 due to dismal ratings, and the league folded shortly afterwards.
