Wow! 6 games against New Mexico and 4 games against both Utah and Wyoming. Not much diversity. Really the AIFA West is its own league for the regular season. But its playoffs will be against Southern Teams. Interesting. Read the story here: www.dcourier.com/main.asp?SectionID=2&subsectionID=2&articleID=515402008 Arizona Adrenaline Schedule March 30, New Mexico, 4 p.m. April 4, at Wyoming, TBA April 12, New Mexico, 7 p.m. April 20, Utah, 4 p.m. April 26, at New Mexico, TBA May 6. at Utah. TBA May 11. Wyoming. 4 p.m. May 17. at New Mexico. TBA May 24. Utah. 7 p.m. May 30. at Wyoming. TBA June 7. at New Mexico. TBA June 16. New Mexico. 7 p.m. June 21. at Utah. TBA June 28.

Logic suggests that after this season more teams will be added out west. Then the schedules would be more expansive. I'm sure you wouldn't want a trip to a Southeast team this year in travel expenses for a regular season game.

The team is responsible for travel expenses...unless they are lacking money, I have no problem with it. We'll see how it all pans out for this lack luster West Division. And yes, I have been to the Adrenaline website, and it's the worst website I have seen for any team in the league. Very pop-warnerish if you ask me. Sad....we are only two months away from kickoff and the website has nothing but ticket info. |

I don not believe that is the website, but just a placeholder. Sometimes when someone launches a website they want it to be fully functional before it is accessible, just a better way to do it really. So I am sure the AA website will be up and running shortly.

That is the official website from what my sources tell me. |

Well, the site does include the statement "Team site under construction - full site coming soon", so I'm assuming we can expect something better in the future.

So backupqb do you base how well a team play's or how well they are run on there website because even as a fan of the cavs I don't think there website is very good it is updated slowly but they are a well managed team and do other thing's well.So I wouldn't judge a team by the website.

No, the Freeze had the best website in the league, and we'll they finished an amazing 1-13! like a website makes much of a difference, in fact it doesnt make any difference!

I am not judging a team by its website. But one thing I do know about is marketing. This team was announced almost four months ago. If your going to have a strong presence in both your local and regional market, you need to have a lot of information available to those your marketing toward. Example: If your out there trying to sell sponsorship packages, those potential clients are going to need something to look at. Who else is sponsoring the team, what do you get for your dollars spent, etc...... Secondly...potential fans will also need information......and the website is the best place to get that info. I just feel that the Adrenaline are not market savvy at all. Placemarkers don't mean squat to me.....get the website up and running and provide people with info........this will attract more people.......and it looks much more professional if you have a good looking website that is well maintained. Sorry.....just my .35 cents worth. |

well here is 50 cents worth of advise (lol, i like that). Build a website for them! many fansites were started because of lackluster websites. Maybe you have a new task!

afford? do it for free! I mean, thats what fans do don't they? I mean I paid to get in games that I worked before. Actually, the first season I paid 235 bucks for games, another 150 or so in merchandise and spent another 50 on food/drinks at games. Many of those games I volenteered doing the sticks and various things! Second year I did whatever needed to be done from filming for the team or WebCast, ball boy, security, and much more, all for free. I mean come on! As that sign says, "stop hurting indoor football"! (i dont know all the codes and just the quick reply box)
