Da Bruisers??.. Nah.. Da Bears! Ahh... much better :) And omg. Fuck the Cardinals! Force another NFL team in Chicago and it causes nothing but rivalry and fuck up the fan base! We got a Rival already! a.k.a. Packers! As for the Bruisers? Blah, give it a few years and then maybe it'd be worth a damn. But it'd be no different than Arena Football, filled with undrafted rookies and washed up talent for the most part. Now if it was used as MLBs minor league... then maybe we can get some damn O-Linemen!!

If the NFL goes to 18 game season this league could be a great help to younger players, trying to show the NFL what they have.

We are awaiting an estimate from Wilson Sporting goods on the cost of supplying game balls for the 2011 season. We will be going with a very traditional style of ball.

They're in talk with Toyota Park about a lease for the Bruisers.

Those uniforms are hideous and the logo is worse. Also, the AAFL folded and the UFL will as well.

You believe that as a fact? The AAFL in the past was attempting to compete was it not. The UFL has a goal and is slowly building to make its process financeable which leads it to unlikely fold.

UFL wants to be a developmental league in the long run. I think this AAFL will fail, starting out off the bat with all those teams will be very difficult because of the amount of money involved.

The AAFL didn't fold actually. UFL is playing this season too.

This isn't an AAFL, it is an AFL. They have an odd financial set-up that is hard for me to explain though.
