[quote=""HoustonLightning""]http://www.lightningprofootball.com[/quote]And like everything else with the SIFL... almost all of the pages are "Coming Soon". When are people going to realize that launching a team website with everything "coming soon" looks a lot worse (for not just the team, but the league overall) than not launching the site?
No tryouts. No arena info (save for a pic of Reliant). Photos from 2009 for a team that didn't even exist. It's all Coming Soon!!

I think he was pointing out a big problem with the league and its image.
In less than an hour one can have one of these cookie cutter websites full of useful information that one could use to show off their team and league as professional and worthy of $10 to $20 bucks for a ticket when the season begins.

Texas Pirates revamped???
What I get from the site is that this is the same Texas Pirates team that could not make it though the 2009 season back for another try. They were a low budget team in 2009 and look to be again with the recycled Lincoln Lightning logo.
Not good.
That's my first impression from the site.

One would think that the league would require a team that didn't finish last season to put up some kind of financial bond in case they do fold again to make sure the other teams don't suffer.
Of course it would look like a leauge would require that of all new members as well would put up some kind of security bond in case they can't complete the season. Thus making sure teams are serious and teams will be played for performing.

I'm happy to see Bryan Blake coming back to Houston as a head coach. I liked working with Bryan when I was a compliance officer with the Copperheads (the season before I assumed media responsibility). Really liked Coach Biles too. If they secure a good arena to play in I'll have to check them out.
If integrity is missing, so are you.
They're probably going to have to change that logo. I doubt they can just take the Lincoln Lightning's old one.

Had the privilege of meeting Ed Biles, as well. The former Houston Oilers Head Coach, had some great stories about Joe Namath, when he was an assistant with the Jets.
