I LOVE ARENA FOOTBALL IDENTITY. ITS A GREAT SPORT. ATTEND JUST 1 GAME AND I PROMISE YOULL BE HOOKED. I HAVE SEASON TICKETS TO OUR AFL2 TEAM THE RIPTIDE. THE HITTING IS FIERCE AND GREAT PLAYS EVERY MINUTE. ITS FAR MORE POPULAR THAN YOU MIGHT THINK. ~rg

Nonsense, Arena is a blast to watch! It has to be the only sport with rules on fan interference that favor the home team. On a kickoff today, a fan swiped a ball in the endzone that would have been otherwise returned. Since he could reach the ball from the stands, receiving team takes over on its own 5. And they have a rule for that!

Arena is also the KING of bad beats and heart attacks.

Of 8 games, the following games were still up in the air (vs. spread) in the last 60 seconds:
Austin/LV (Austin won the game on the last play of the game)
Grad Rapid/Tampa Bay (Tamp, up by 12, scores a meaningless touchdown to cover). That one REALLY hurt - most teams will just eat up clock when they are up a lot, and recieve kickoff with 19 seconds. This game is a true suicide-watch game. GRR was tied with TB 20-20 at halftime, and gets outscored 50-30 to lose, not cover, and go over.
Columbus/Georgia (Columbus, down 14, scores late TD to cover)
Nashville/Chicago (Nashville down 21 in 4th qtr stops Chi twice, scores 2 unanswered TDs to cover)

I enjoy watching the AFL as well.A friend of my gave me four tickets for todays ny/philly game .I took the wife and kids to the game.It was a blast ,i took the over and was yelling at the teams to hurry up after a TD to kick the extra points.Big time killer if they dance to much....
I rather watch an AFL game than a regular season NBA game.

No defense = no viewership from me. It's unbearable
