Alliance of American Football and XFL

Anyone else looking forward to these two additional leagues? Or is the market already saturated enough with Arena league?

Thoughts? (I just wish my town was able to get into one of the leagues, I think it would get large amounts of support).

Don't forget about the Freedom Football League!!!

The purpose of this league ... is about community and the development of players," Ricky Williams told OTL. "... In thinking about creating this league, I wanted to create a league that I could have stayed in and been comfortable and really thrived.

"The NFL started a long time ago, and since then a lot of things have changed. And we want to create a league that's ready for that change and invite some more of it."


The FFL said the league would initially have 10 teams -- with plans to expand into additional locations -- and games would take place during the spring and summer.

If Topps could make cards for any of these leagues I'd be a buyer.

I could really see a rival to the NFL making it but if you are going to have 4 or 5 of them they will just split the non NFL fans and make it harder for any of them to succeed. I mean how many players playing football does this country need?

I would like some to see someone besides the NFL and especially if Portland Oregon got a team!

Would really enjoy PDX getting a team too.
