Well, one door closes and another opens.

The brand spankin' new AAF football league opens next weekend!

Lots of former NFL coaches and players will be in the new league, including Spruuuuuuuce! (and many other former Rams). I think I will begin following Mike Martz's new team, the San Diego FLEET. I am hoping this becomes the development league we have all been waiting for. They are smart in not competing with the NFL, and seem to be coordinating with it...

I think the NFLN channel will be showing some games, and it starts next weekend!

The FLEET will be playing in the Chargers old stadium, which I remember as San Diego Jack Murphy stadium...

I just did a search for the San Antonio Commodes, because I think that's the team my family will root for. In the "people also searched for" section b it had the Arizona Hotshots, Birmingham Iron, etc, etc and the Dallas Cowboys.

I know it's just because it's a nearby (relatively, this is Texas) football team, but it's still funny.

Interesting.
I'm from a town in the UK which is near a large city called Birmingham.
Birmingham area is also known as the Black Country for its manufacturing and factories back in the day, especially blacksmiths.
It is also the primary city where Peaky Blinders is based.

Therefore, Birmingham Irons it is for me.

Man, this new league seemed to have picked all southern locations for their teams in the midst of winter and early spring except for Salt Lake City. This Rice-Eccles Stadium, home of the Utah Utes and the new Stallions, is 400 feet above Salt Lake City itself, at 4637 feet. It's an outdoor stadium that high in Winter...wtf? lol

The AAF stars up this Saturday and I'm actually excited. Some interesting finds... Mike Martz is head coach of the San Diego team, also Steve Spurrier and Mike Singletary are HC's. Former Ram Luis Perez is starting QB for Birmingham team.
