RE: AAF New Arizona Hotshots Fan!

in #sports6 years ago

I watched some and was pleased that the majority of players are hungry and the multi-million dollar a-holes riding the pine for a sore toe aren't here. Interesting the teams have a theme in reguards to their state:


Every Alliance team name has significance for the cities in which they are based:from https://aaf.com/what-is-the-alliance

· The Fleet honors the immense U.S. Navy presence around San Diego.

· The San Antonio Commanders is a nod to “Military City USA” where four installations encircle the home of the Alamo.

· You could see the NASA moon shots from Orlando back in the day, and with the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11 coming, the Orlando Apollos are go for launch.

· The Atlanta Legends illuminates the city’s history as the home of greats from sports, culture and the civil rights movement.

· The Arizona Hotshots are named for wilderness firefighters.

· The Salt Lake Stallions harkens back to the animals that helped tame that area.

· The Birmingham Iron represents the industry key to the city’s existence.

· A major transportation hub, Memphis takes on the Express mantle.

I'll be tuning in again as I hope they can thrive and survive. Their Vegas betting deal doesn't hurt them either.
