TBGKon Posted September 30, 2009 Share Posted September 30, 2009 If there isn't a Philadelphia team in it, it's dead to me.Same for me with Tampa Bay, and by the sounds of things I have a better shot that you of having a team. Tampa Bay has at least been brought up, while Philly is pretty much dead in the water...no offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 There could also be 2 rival leagues as I hear one of the former owners is trying to buy the name and assets of the AFL from bankruptcy court. I know there are teams such as the rampage and rush who want to play in the AFL in '11 and not the AF1 like some of the teams coming back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Teams such as the tampa bay storm, chicago rush and the utah blaze are coming back. no word on san jose or grand rapids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Teams such as the tampa bay storm, chicago rush and the utah blaze are coming back. no word on san jose or grand rapids.Blaze aren't coming back - it's the Utah Thunder, formerly Utah Valley Thunder, coming in from the AIFA and playing at the E-Center. But then there's a line in the Wiki article saying the team may rebrand itself as the Blaze, so I dunno.Strangely, there's no mention of Grand Rapids on the AF1 page, nor is there any mention of the AF1 on the Rampage's page.

Tannerman Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 In the case of Chicago, it's really a "Fake Rush" returning. Same name and branding, but league ownership, not the same owners as the original Rush (who would like to start a "real" AFL-type league in 2011, which is probably why you don't see the likes of Grand Rapids, etc. joining up with AF1) Olympic Broadcaster Logos - BevReview.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac the Knife Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 I'm wondering if AF1 will resurrect the league name as a whole... "Arena Football League" has a whole lot more cache to it than "Arena Football One." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rvrdgsfn Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 First cities to get a crack on expansion are Philly, Pittsburgh, Denver & somewhere in Southern California, although when I first read the article, I was like, how is this possible, then realizing that oh yeah, they bought the rights to the names, honestly, who didn't see that coming.
