How about "They won't play one down." as an option? That would have been my vote back in January, and now it's going to be announced that they are finished before they start. With the AFL already being in existance for 23 years now, you would have thought someone would have realized the co...

Wonder why they aren't on the AF2 website yet? Does this mean there are still things to be worked out before they are "official"?

That sounds like 3 too few for that western division. My sources told me that the requirement for the western division even coming into existance was a minimum of 5-6 teams. Although the AIFA has done more than expected with the announcements of Wyoming and Prescott publicly (I expected them to be m...

If you can control travel cost, payroll (administrative, coaches, and players), and insurance costs, then you have a shot at making money in indoor football.

Each state has its own securities law that applies to the number of investors that you can add to any one endeavor without having to list your stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In my experience and research, that number is somewhere between 20-30 per anniversary year. If they are ta...

Not again...is this the ABCFL or the XYZFL.

These guys haven't done their homework. $10K franchise fee (not bad), but $30K (A YEAR) league fee and $100K LOC? Are they kidding? For a flegling league? These guys haven't realized that the AF2 way of doing business and overcharging the teams to failure doesn't work.

It won't be on Fox, NBC, ABC, or CBS. I would expect it to be cable access stations (read this "free locally created programming") and WB or UPN type stations that are usually piggy back stations to the big ones in town. I agree with Exit322 here. There isn't any way it's "real" ...
