Dayton having problems with their arena. Wouldn't Janet Jackson call this an "arena malfunction"?

Unless someone finds info to the contrary... I am assuming the Dayton Bulldogs are no more.

When I called wall2wall earlier this week I found that the Bulldogs never signed an agreement about the MOVE to WALL2WALL. I found that interesting given that there was a PRESS RELEASE and EVERYTHING.

Oh well... my guess is that most people don't really care.

That kind of timing sounds like Phantom planning and waiting till the day of the game to cancel lol Btw if any anyone wants Mr Wonderfuls Address to send him a nice Cake or Summons IM Email me

Gives Lakeland another weekend to rest relax and get rusty...See you all in Osceola next weekend! We have no problems with our arena.

I think it's safe to say that Dayton is a totally crashed and burned market on indoor football.

The only way it would work now is to wait about five years and come in with everything paid up front And then sell like heck.

lakeland knew the game was cancelled since last Monday. See link to article below. That is not to say however that Dayton bothered to tell their fans? Or is that fan as in singular form?

It was unecessary to tell the fans... or as you point out, "fan"...

They no longer have any presence whatsoever. No website, no front office. They never had advertising... so its not like anyone might show up for the game by mistake.

This team clearly didn't have any money from the start. Makes you wonder how the owners acquired the franchise in the first place.

The Dayton Bulldogs are no more? Geez and I thought they were on solid ground. I mean even the General Manager was investing in a new team for the Toledo area. Does he even have the money? Geez what are the owners smoking? Someone stop the insanity!!!

Since when has that ever mattered to the NIFL. They gave three teams to HP Patterson and whatever names he's known by. They even gave CSM a team after driving most of their franchises into the dirt last year. As long as the check for the franchise fee clears, they'll give one to anyone.
