2009

The AAFL has decided to delay their season until 2009. They are trying to sound up beat about it, but lets be frank...this sucks.

ALL AMERICAN FOOTBALL LEAGUE® POSTPONES INAUGURAL SEASON UNTIL 2009

For Immediate Release
March 13, 2008

ATLANTA, GA – The All American Football League (AAFL) announced today the postponement of its inaugural season until 2009. The League will continue to build upon the foundation that has been established, and will continue to discuss opportunities with potential investors.

AAFL sponsors have committed to remain on board for the 2009 season. Currently, the League has corporate partnerships with New Balance, Baden Sports and Rogers Athletic. Also still in place for the 2009 season are a national radio partnership with Touchdown Radio & SportsDay Productions, and an internet broadcast partnership with PlayOn! Sports, a division of Turner Broadcasting.

“We are so very fortunate to have built partnerships with companies who are partners in the truest sense of the word,” said Keenan Davis, AAFL VP of League Operations and COO. “We sincerely appreciate their support as we progress toward our new goal of a 2009 inaugural season.”

All fans who have purchased tickets to 2008 AAFL games will receive a full refund. Credit cards will be credited and any checks received will be returned.

Additional details regarding the AAFL’s postponement are forthcoming.


I'll keep you up to date on any big news that comes up. Team Texas isn't dead yet, but they are on life support. Hopefully we'll soon be covering the 2009 season and not writing an obituary.
