Until I saw this thread I didn't know this league existed. Tuned in for parts of 2 games and was entertained. Hope the AAF does well.
They are calling this the minor leagues of The NFL. The idea is this league is a proving ground to the next step.
ok I've been looking for a standings selection on the OS and can't find it. Anyone else?
I’ve looked on the iOS app, the AAF website, & CBSsports and haven’t been able to get the standings.
Strange.

How do you not know the league is out of money after a week?Looks like the AAF couldn't make payroll after week 1 and they had to sell the league. So its no longer owned by Bill Polian and Co. New owner is some NHL guy from Carolina.... Had it not been for his 250Mil buyout the league would not have made it to week 2.

I’m over football, but I do like the rule changes.So a new football league begins this weekend. Are you going to watch it?
Some rule changes...
1. No kickoffs. Teams will get the ball on the 25.
2. No onside kicks. Teams will be given the ball on their own 28. It is fourth and 12. Must convert in order to maintain possession.
3. Must go for 2 point conversion after touchdowns.
4. Field goals only in regulation, not allowed in OT.
5. There is an extra ref in the press boxes that can call penalties that the on field refs miss.
6. Playclock is 35 seconds instead of 40.
7. In OT, each team gets one possession. It is first and goal from the 10. Games can end in ties.

Who knows, maybe I could be enticed.I also think the rule changes are good. Especially the kickoff ones.
So, the league appears to be dead. First they couldn't make payroll and had to be sold. Now reports say that all league operations are suspended as they ran out of money.

They are claiming that they need the NFLPA to support the league for it to survive. The PA is saying that they don't want practice team players to play for fear of getting injured.That is too bad. I enjoyed it.

Well the XFL is coming back next year. Not sure how they will fair after this league went bust.What is Johnny Manziel going to do now? Seems he burned all his bridges with the CFL so that he could bail and play for the AAF![]()

Yeah, I just can't understand how he keeps pooping the bed wherever he goes.
I am not sure if anyone in the XFL will want him.
