The Lee civic center holds 7,800! for anybody intersested to know so my guess would be they need about 3600-4000 fans at a game to be successful

I seiously doubt that it was the FAB's descion to break away, they loved it too much, made some of them feel big. LOL. :-P As for Huntington, everything is good. Just some small things from the ownership change all happened in one day. It absolutely was our decision and we voted unanimously 11-0 in the FAB Discussion board to make the change. I dont know why you think we were so enamoured with being the offiicial league board? We simply gave it a shot and it didnt work out like we had hoped.....

There are some factors hurting the team. 1) The Lee Civic Center is a dump. Germain arena is state of the art. 2) The area is extremly depressed right now. We have the highest unemployment rates in the state. 3) The ECHL Everblades team is still going on. When they play nothing else matters down here. 4) The af2 team down here is also sufferring. I'm waiting to see this weekend what thier attendance is(first hme game). 5) The Lee Civic Center box office sucks. I have had too many problems getting the right tickets. 6) The local Firecat team have left a bad taste in people's mouths. A whole lot of people will not go because of that. Even though they state 7,800 for capacity, realistic it is 4500 capacity for indoor football. The Stingray owners know they need to work better on getting people to the game and are working hard this bye week for the next game.

Its a shame to see Florida hurting great area for a team with major potential. Just take it one day a time attendance takes time plus alot of work to achieve.

Reads Gene's posts. Smiles slightly at interesting comments. Bites lips. Refrains from saying something along the lines of how it must have it been a pain to have the sun rising and setting out his anus daily. Picks nose. Moves on to other stuff.

The official, wait I mean the real message board is up! I am awaiting my activation link via e-mail! You'll be banned or at the very least warned before this month is over. Seeing as how strict they wanted things here i wont waste my time over there. I trust you'll give us regular reports on the bannings and disappearing threads as people complain about the junk balls, tv deal and other goings ons? ...

Wow Gene. It did not take you long to turn the corner. You wanted to separate. You got what you wanted and now you are talking smack? Real classy.

The HeroHimself will probably get banned, considering how he carries himself on this board. Gene did make some valid points though: - The Balls are definitely "Junk" - Simply me is on Day 26 of it's "It's looking great, but you can't see it" strategy. Yeah maybe it was a bit classless, but it's not like he's making it up. The AIFA is messing up enough that negativity has become the norm. It is unfortunate indeed.

Why does the AIFA need an official message board?
Last time I checked, the NFL, MLB, NHL, and NBA don't exactly run "official" message boards... of course, all those leagues do have legitamite PR offices...

Malepig has already tried stinking up the place. He is a waste of space, and the guy does occupy a lot of space. I also find it confusing that supposed adults will register just to cause trouble. But if that sort of thing stokes ones ego, who am I to speak out against it.
