Haines resigns as UIFL president

[coachingubigr]

The following quote is from Andrew Haines, I pulled it from the Indoor Football Report Facebook page. lol.

"Andrew Leah Haines No lawsuits...we wanted to add to our front office of the league - I'm still on the board of directors."

Translation. I didn't like the job that I was doing so I decided to replace myself. Really?

This really is the WWE. I believe you're right, this is what happened in the UIFL.

The owner suiting up and running in a TD himself is the actions of a self centered individual.

Did he write himself a game check afterwards?

Better yet:

1) Was he on the official roster submitted to league officials?
2) Did the tarpons have more than the allotted players for the game?
3) Had he taken a physical?


In the universal scheme, who cares ... but there's letter of the law and spirit of the law, and if Mr. Haines wasn't properly paperworked, than there's a case the Tarpons should forfeit.

The UIFL has a "celebrity" exemption clause that adds a roster spot.

This news just shows how pathetic this league is and the state of their leadership. If you are the former founder and president of the league, why would you suit up and run up the score on one of the team league members? To me, that's just downright disrespectful to the opposing team. Or does that just show the true level of the team that they were playing. That someone who hasn't played all year or ever before, that I know of, can just come in and run a 10 yard touchdown on them. Yikes. Erie, Cincinnati, and Marion, please do the right thing. Those are three solid programs. I think they should explore other options in my opinion.

Boy with AH playing and scoring I really hit that one on the head.

Up 79-18 with under a minute to play, the Tarpons kept piling it on. The owner of the team, Andrew Haines, suited up for the game and played on the kickoff team throughout. With 43 seconds left in the game, Florida put Haines in at running back and he ran in a 10-yard touchdown.

This ranks; beyond disgusting.

Hopefully, the new league president will reprimand ownership for its unsportsmanlike conduct. That is unless Haines has taken back over after his playtime in the sandbox....
