Bowl season

Man oh man, all of these bowl games are getting me ready for the Arena season. Can't wait to see the Iron offense light up the field with Greisen to Jones and Young rushing the ball. Should be a great season and I'm excited to see how this new league comes around and how the fans react. I have no doubt that the Milwaukee fans will turn out for some big games this season!

Rgv Dorados

Looks like Rvg going to IFL. They wont play until the 2011 season. There is a small video on the subject at KRGV.com in the Sports section titled Valley Pro Football Goes Into Hibernation.

KC Franchise

Twisters: AFL woes not theirs

By Doug Crise Arkansas Democrat-Gazette Wednesday, August 5, 2009 LITTLE ROCK — The Arkansas Twisters are planning to play football in Verizon Arena in North Little Rock next summer, though probably under a different banner. Tuesday’s news that the Arena Football League will likely fold after 22 years isn’t expected to change much for the Twisters and their league, Arena Football 2. AF2 had little stake in the failed league because of a stand-alone business model in which the AF2 and its memb… Continue

Pay Back is Sweet!

May 17, 2009 The season is halfway over and the Twisters brought home a record of 6-2 after beating the Central Valley Coyotes in Fresno, California. I was hoping the team would carry a little payback with them into this non-conference game. They did just that and Kyle Rowley comp… Continue
