@23buie This was at ArenaBowl XXII in 2008, the league came back in 2010 with 15 teams and the Tampa Bay Storm played the Spokane Shock in ArenaBowl XXIII.. Both the Philadelphia Soul and San Jose SaberCats are returning next year.. among others..
It will be live on NFL Network on "Arena Football Friday" starting in March.. Spread the word!!
I miss the AFL. I think they should have made this like a minor league NFL system instead at the end bc there were a lot of great players in that league that could be great fits for the pro teams in the fall.
Arena Football 1 (Af2 with some old AFL teams) will be coming up in March? of this year. I think there will be 16 teams to start off and hopefully these teams will be coming back...i miss my soul
No, it wasn't conclusive, he may have been over the line. Plus, I rememeber earlier in the game on a 3rd down play we scored a touchdown and it was ruled incomplete but the replay clearly showed it being a catch, the Sould decided not to use their challenge that early and then missed on 4th down. So even if Brackins wasn't over the line, the missed calls would have evened out. I was at that game, never heard the Warchovia Center so loud.
no it wasnt they never reviewed the game cause the clock ran out but i watched that replay prob more then you and his knee was down and i dont remember the 3rd down play
His knee was down but the angle was not for sure. Honastly, I thought he was down just before after watching the replay but because of that 3rd down play, and trust me it happened before the half, I'm not so bitter on getting a possibly not deserving win because both team sorta got cheated.
Other than than the Desperatos, what team would hire someone with a lack of class like Vick? Dallas already has a very good QB. But I do agree, he would be good in it. But it wont happen. And I'm glad too, I hope he never gets work and has to pump gas.
i was actually at that game with the philadelphia soul band. new orleans is freakin awsome and in that arena there nothing but electricity i was with the soul all season and i performed on their home field at the wachovia center
first start off ur an idiot his knee was down before the ball was in the end zone watch the footage again stupid shit dragons or sabercats should be arenabowl champoins it doesnt matter tho arena s dead so enjoy the win you where wrongly given fag
Psp1990, you don't know what you're talking about; the Soul won that game fair and square. And if the Sabercats are better than the Soul, why couldn't they beat them in ArenaBowl XXII? Clearly the Soul are the better team.
GO SOUL- ARENABOWL XXII CHAMPIONS!
(My parents lived in philadelphia for several years, and so my father became a sixers and flyers fan and so I am now and since Baltimore has no AFL team I cheer for Philadelphia's.)
considering that the soul never won the game against the dragons they are not the arena champions sabercats are a overall better team we have more arenabowls and when the league comes back we are going back HELL YA!
R.I.P The AFL. So sad, I was a fan of that league, too bad a lot sports fans wasn't interested by it. XFL, AFL, really sad, I mean I like the NFL but there is too many time out, play under review, flags, games are too long.
r u joking. the xfl was an insult to the sport of football. ive been a fan and student of the game for over 20 years. the xfl was primarily for entertainment. entertainment is the very thing that sent the beautiful sport of football down the drain almost 50 years ago.
Real football is NOT about entertainment kid, no matter what ESPN poisons ur mind to think. sure real football may not be fun, but fun was never what the game was intended to be. It was a war of strength against strength, toughness against toughness, winning at any cost. Football now has been overrun by rules and media football "experts" who judge the game by what they WANT to see. The game has gone from the players to the spectators.
About that I agree if you are talking about the media, look how the NFL is so powerful, because of the media, I love NFL football but there is some rule that are really annoying, too many time out, play under review who takes forever, flag in almost every play, we need another league who is going to be fun, I hope the UFL or the return of the USFL will be fun but don't count on the media to hype those league...
about everything u just said i 100% agree. I love watching the NFL too and the media has made NFL so huge but have also destroyed the original game by adding stupid stuff like extended time outs. I am hoping tho that the low media involvement of the UFL or new USFL makes the game more pure and exciting at the same time
I don't think the xfl had a chance to grow, it was buried after week one after the media decided it was all gimmicks no substance. As for the football itself, i'd say it was pretty okay maybe similar to USFL 1983 first season, before that league went out and got a few NFL stars/blue chip rookies for the 1984 campaign, then it made a quamtum leap in overall play quality.
So i guess Arenaball is dead huh and this new USFL starts in 2010, i hope they don't make the same mistakes the old USFL !
well in reality the XFL did have a chance to be succesful i mean they were not trying to compete with the NFL because that would never work. The down of the XFL was that it had the Networks pull out in wanting to make games take place in the afternoon rather than primetime also it failed because of the whole Pro Wrestling behind it with Rock Undertaker and Vince McMahon in Mr.McMahon charater on opening night. Finally the XFL failed because it was not given a chance to succed
I mean, the AFL owners have voted to suspend operations for 2009 because of their debt, and in all likelyhood, the league won't be back after taking a year off. It's dead.
