LWeirich1964 Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 If you notice, there are only five logos in the Arena Football League page (Albany, Baltimore, Cleveland, Philadelphia, and Washington). Cleveland is on hiatus and the league added two new teams (Atlantic City and Columbus). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the site needs to be updated to fix that. Sorry, though it was something that the main AFL site did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMtexan09 Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 To be honest, as much as I missed the era of San Jose SabreCats and Arizona Rattlers, AFL should try to spread most to the Eastern cities such as Virginia Beach, Richmond, Charleston and Providence. That would help to grow the league. That's my 5 cents thought 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 "If it moves forward, the AFL may become a traveling league, similar to the Premier Lacrosse League, whereby all players practice in a centralized location and fly to a different city each weekend to play games." rofl no 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDAWG Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 This explains the silence from the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Cesarano Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Aaaand so the IFL now becomes the sport's undisputed top tier. (It was probably the top last year, also.) I just hope the Nebraska Danger don't fold, so that the brilliant Steve Stein can continue enchanting audiences from the booth. (Seriously, this guy is outstanding; he is major-league calibre.)

I doubt he'll be out of a job for long if the Danger do move/fold. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo_prankster Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 No matter what anyone says, I'm definitely gonna miss the old AFL. Plenty of great times watching on ESPN during the 90s. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, really, the old AFL folded after the 2008 season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dilbert Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 From Ron Jaworski“We are ceasing local business operations as we restructure. The Soul and the AFL are not ceasing operations as we explore other options. All operations are running through the AFL office” So basically to put it into the words of former Soul owner Jon Bon Jovi the league is "living on a prayer."

Doubt it. The AFL at this point is a tainted name so we're not going to have a repeat of the first go around with the minor league buying the trademarks and assuming the name. There's no way that the NAL or IFL would want to inherit that baggage. The ONLY way there's going to be any sort of legacy is if defunct team names get resurrected in the regional leagues by buying the IP through bankruptcy court. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 I can see the Philadelphia Soul being brought over to the IFL or NAL and that’s pretty much the only worthy name I can think of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to see Iowa Barnstormers trademarks have been rescued by the IFL already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
