I loved the Nashville Kats, at least the first version (1997-2001). I didn't care much for the Bud Adams "Titans Lite" version (2005-2007) because he turned them into pretty much a Titans commercial, even made the uniforms look very similiar to the Titans. I understand cross promotion and trying to piggyback the Titans' success, but come on.

I haven't missed the AFL at all since. It tried to grow too big too fast. It was always a niche sport but wanted to be the "5th" major league sport.

Say what you will, but it was an interesting diversion. I had a good time when I went.

No need to panic, after all we do have the Lingerie Football League to fall back on...

I really do miss the AFL. It was the only football you could see that time of year other than spring practice

Anyone check the date on that article? They took '09 off.

ArenaFootball.com — The Official Web site of the Arena Football League AFL

Not that I follow it, but it is spring football after all.
