Let's put on our thinking caps.

Austin moved from AFL to af2 for the 2008 af2 season.

I am going to be straightforward on this topic, so be honest.

Do you see any af2 teams moving from their original location to a new location and what new expansion teams do you see joining the af2?

Lexington won't even be here next year if we can't raise our piss-poor attendance. I have no idea where they would try to go next.

Buffalo and Mississippi probably won't have teams in 2009

Daytona Beach will probably fold and the Fire might move to the AFL

Did you really need to start another thread, Leonard?

EDIT, and why, Kelly, the *beep* is Hunstville, Alabama in the same division as Milwaukee and the Illinois teams, and the Iowa, Green Bay, and Kentucky teams in their own division.

Thanks. Your map made for interesting viewing.

Let me ask you, though - do you picture an af2 team coming to perhaps Reno, Nevada?

I agree that Buffalo and Albany should be in the same division- it makes sense that there will be an instant rivaly for bragging rights in the state of New York.

I would also agree. Imagine a Buffalo-Albany rivalry. It would be good for arena football in "The Empire State."
