Be prepared for some surprises!
A major city sports writer (south of the Mason Dixon) has contacted 6 front offices of AIFA teams (do not know which teams) and not one would confirm that they are returning next year. I don't really care if the naysayers believe this post or not, the truth will win out before next season.
Some may return some will not.

I don't really care if the naysayers believe this post or not, the truth will win out before next season. Some may return some will not. This is the same BS people were throwing around last year, saying a majority of the teams were moving. Guess what, none of it was true and several teams said they are staying with the AIFA as long as they are around; Reading being one of them. You can keep saying this but there is no actual proof of anything. |

It is easy to be a fan and hate to hear bad news but I guess time will tell.
Another item: Chances are very good that the Trenton team, the New Jersey Kings, will never play a down in the AIFA!
It is amazing what information a few phone calls to arenas, local papers and TV/radio stations will allow you to accumulate.

No the thing is you keep saying all of these things, yet there is never any hard proof to show anything that you say. All you are doing is trying to spreed rumors, since there is no proof being shown. I know this is how many people on this board also feel, you can say what you want but untill there is actual proof all they are is rumors. The only problem I have is that it seems every time you make a post it is always negative towards this league. |

Straighttalk who's your favorite team? Being from the Maryland area, i'm guessing you're a Mariners or Maniacs fan?

In the past season I have been to:
2 Baltimore Mariner Games
2 Reading Express games
1 DC Armor Game
1 Albany Firebirds
2 WB/Scranton Pioneers
2 Tulsa Talons
2 Iowa Barnstormers
1 Milwaukee Iron
2 Rochester Raiders
1 El Paso Generals
Leaving shortly to go to the Kentucky Vs. WB/Scranton game and then two more before the year is over. I am truly a football fan and am privileged to attend about 20 indoor games, 16 NFL games and 10-12 D1 college games a year. It helps when you are paid to attend.

No not a referee!
the way the games listed were ones I was paid to attend. I also attended three Harrisburg Stampede games and a Tennessee Valley game on my own. As mentioned earlier I consult to both leagues and teams.
And to go a step further, there is a lot of good potential in the AIFA. I am only negative toward those who deserve it. Unfortunately the league owners are a public relations nightmare and the teams can only go as far as league ownership will allow.

Definitely at this point, every legitimate team in every league, including the AF2, is exploring options. 2009 just wasn't a good year for anyone, so there will be all kinds of shuffling.
Whether that affects the AIFA or not will be determined later.
