We Should Have the Arena Football League Back Again

I feel with the 1st Truly Silent Summer of the Arena Football League, 2nd if you count the 2009 Arena 2 trying to put on a Brave Face until being acquired by the 2010 Arena Football League, we should be having the Arena Football League again.

This is not just me wanting a Toy Project or Albany to raise and defend their banner, even though I was upset it was not the Firebirds. We'd need Good Arenas and that would not be an understatement.

I would think it would be having to resolve the Workman's Comp Bill that came up with the Earlier League and the Television Contract because that is necessary for the League's Survival.

I would want the Battleship Steamwheeler be the Centerpiece of a 2021 Arena Football League because even for a Student Section Culture, I would want to stake "WE ARE GOING UNDEFEATED!" every year or counting the Wins to an Undefeated Arena Bowl, which would be a Game 1st.

There would be no escaping it Nationally, or Internationally, and I would want to see that happen later on.

It is not if the Arena Football League would come back, but when it would come back.

If Arena Football Came Back Next Mother's Day Night

I feel like if the Arena Football League came back next Mother's Day Night, Quad City Steamwheelers at Tulsa Talons, it would where the electricity would be felt here in Marion and on National Network TV. And, not only that, we'd have the weight of restarting a whole new league.

I would think crowds would be crowds only if the Stadium Janitor has a stake. If he has a stake in a Brand New Aerosmith's 1st Milwaukee Show, it would be different. I would only imagine the energy would be off the wall and then some.

Albany would be raising their banner they never got to, the War on I-4 would be back in the saddle again, and those Epics would start again. I would think for the finishing pieces would be the Arizona Rattlers and Dallas Desperados. I'd feel that the energy shouldn't be pulling Maggie out, as in Simpson, and instead, rock consistently.

I would feel there would be a lot of behind the scenes work we'd have to get to in a hurry and trust me, it would be in a hurry.

What Would It Take to Start the Arena Football League again?

We have not had an Arena Football League since Thanksgiving and I would wonder what would it take to start the Arena Football League again? I would feel like ironing the earlier league's Workman's Comp Matters and having to get a Proper Front Channel Squared Away and I do mean proper.

Currently, we don't have Pitching Stats or Stanley Cup or NBA Finals. I would start with Arena Scenes with having a Proper Arena or keeping one in code or persuading cities such as Atlantic City and Baltimore that need a New Arena actually get a New Arena.

I would insist on a Tuesday-Wednesday Slate so that concerts could more easily do their thing. I am thinking the money we had thrown at the League in this lean time would make it stick in a rosier period.

This is not just a "Yay, Arena Football is Back!" or having more things like Starbucks in the League and not all of them good.

2000th Post: Would have the 1987 Arena Football League had gone the Promotion/Demotion Route?

I feel like for as much fuss as Major League Soccer is trying to push a Promotion/Demotion path, but, had the 1987 Arena Football League stuck today, would have any expansions have gone to Arena Football 2 and any worst teams would been demoted to Arena 2 with no National Television in the Regular Season.

I would feel like Quad City, Tulsa and Tennessee Valley would have been promoted and Arena Football Powerhouses within a matter of years. Richmond, Fort Myers and Spokane would have been yo-yo members within a few years, only being their for the experience.

The Yo-Yo Promotion Demotion would have been common in England, where the team would be demoted from the Premier League, Win the Championship and return to the Premier League and get demoted, all in a 4 Year Period. It would not necessarily been specific to a 4 Year Period, but, it would have been rough to the Football Development and Self Esteem

There would be programs who'd take their role serious and others who would more likely not take their roles seriously enough, like they'd go about narcoleptic the same matter until they are demoted.

If it was a Calendar Yo-Yo, it would confuse both leagues and it would not be helpful where we'd live in a bubble or a vacuum and just going down leagues would be problematic and confusing.

In reality, other than having to go to court just to restart the league and having to need to pay the Workman's Comp from the 2010 League just to even restart the league and have a proper National Television deal.

Why not an All New Arena Football League?

I feel we would at some point have an all new Arena Football League. I feel it is not fair to have Albany not enjoy a proper Championship Defense or Defenses, nor have first right at their name, the Albany Firebirds.

What I feel is other than getting kicked before Thanksgiving, which is its own rude awakening, and I would want to see if the Workman's Comp Bill from the 2010 League and a proper television deal would be covered before anything else.

What it should be is a Football Summer League and I don't know if the Public would have any real taste in that, but, it would be better than acquiring someone else and calling them the Arena Football League.

The challenge and the problem is it is heavily trademark protected and I feel like there'd have to be a push or a need for replacement Arenas.

It would have to be a combination of Legacy/Phoenix Teams in different markets.

Someone's Gonna Buy the Arena Football League (Breaking News: It Won't Be Inexpensive)

I feel the next iteration of the Arena Football League would need a Mid Southern Injection of Money just to pay off their insurance debts. And, that leads me to say the warning for the 2021 Arena Football League is you have to have a good relationship with employment or bankers.

I am going bonkers that the Albany Empire did not formally raise their banner. Ideally, they are AHL Territory, as the River Rats/Devils iterations stopped giving it a go a decade ago, and I am not flying the River Styx quite yet for Gatorade League or AHL Expansion in the Capital District.

I'd feel one way or another, we'd need to have that banner raising. And, we'd need Corporate America or Everyday People subsizide everything if we went back to work on Arena Football, we'd need every Sponsor Within Reason.

The Arena Football League has tried everything in its history. But, this time, we really really need it as a Minor League.

What do you mean there is NO 2010 Arena Football League?

I am formally shook up by the fact Albany won't be able to raise their banner again and have the privileges of being a Championship Program.  I would feel if we had to get off the ground a New Arena Football League, the TV Visibilty/Package would have to be non-negotiable.

I would feel like wanting to see if, for House Reasons, lock the leagues at 12 because this is a time-sensitive league and we couldn't nerf Sports in front of Entertainment. Where I'd be SOOL is wanting my Mother's Night Quad City Steamwheelers at Tulsa Talons wars after the Indianapolis 500 Pole Qualifying Track and Closed Circuit Records go down like Bad Bars.

I would like to see at least 8 Arena Football League programs to restart the league again. I would want to see the Albany Firebirds name stipulated back into existance and I am not interested in setting down a Three I all over again. I would want to see the Tampa Bay Storm and Orlando Predators along with the Tennessee Valley Vipers, Quad City Steamwheelers, and Tulsa Talons and the 7th would be Dallas and the 8th would be having to say City Name Rattlers because I would feel the Tucson Sidewinders would grow a fan base through the years.

The Football Pension: How Other Non-AFL Pro Football Pensions Exist or Not Exist at All

Even though American Football League Alumni where grandfathered into the NFL Pension Program, and with the exponental living Worldwide American Football League Alumni is dwindling, but, I feel the sadness, is how would other Pro Football Leagues Pensions (Past or Present) would be mangled.

We don't go into these things ONLY thinking the end result. It would be very wasteful only to think that way. But, I am sure the Arena Football League and arenafootball2's Initial League Pension History would be skeletal.

And, I feel as if kinetically, we'd throw everything into everything and get little out of it. While we get little out, I wonder if the CFL Pension is still in ship-shape?

And, what wild is too many of the Independent,Semi Pro or Minor League Owners played fast and loose. And, even now, MD's cost Money and you'd need to make your money on Merchandise to evade the Cobras from looting your vault.

It 2019, a 3 Ring Carnival that won't take a knee any time soon and I feel the digs would have to be deeper

Don't Go Like the Arena League Team!

I feel a lot of people emotions raw as the Jersey Streets, and sadly, losing the once upon a time is not childish. And, we can't be childish in this period, even though there are kids who'd be more wired than some adults, but, kids need their adults safe, or their heroes.

And, losing Toys'R'Us is a stinger and I could kid about wanting Bass Pro Shops or Scheels so I don't have to go far, but, the air and the building would change. And, it feels weird to me that the Tennessee Family, which I thought was too strong to break, losing Radio Voice John Ward like how their grandparents felt and heard General Neyland, is a bit much to bear.

And, speaking of airs on my feet, what if we had a Strong Arena Football League JUST to get back to an NFL Training Camp? And, most kids role models don't skip on Child Support, and most kids role models don't just play everyone. And, most Dads are responsible and doting to their kids. Even though I am speaking for the majority, which we don't always get, but, going farther and longer is character, not just taking attitude too far.

The Tampa Bay Storm Are GONE!

I feel the 2010 Arena Football League should do better at keeping teams, and I am livid the Tampa Bay Storm are GONE! I am supremely bitter, that Albany is sandbagging their name debut and I was not content in having a Spirit Equal to the Firebirds, but instead, The Albany Firebirds.

Don't even dare get me going on why there an Eastern League. And, I feel league leadership has been sissified, amid other things, and instead of leadership, we suffer Flanderization like that's normal!

Okay, let's acquire the Battleship Quad City Steamwheelers again into Arena Football and make everyone else in Football into Division 99. And, I feel mad the Arena Football League flagged the Wang Chungs into not acquiring the Steamwheelers again!

And, I dare the Arena Football League into whipping themselves into Player Development, even if anyone had to paint Tiger Stripes on their Face to bash the doors out of any Running Back or Defender. I mean, let's make all 110 Numbers just to see who gets it.
