You'll have to change the name I'm afraid... "AFL" is copyrighted by the AFL-CIO Wink

Actually, the AFL was a football league that ultimately merged with the NFL and existed side by side with the AFL labor organization for some time.

The Third team in the Presidential division....


The Gustaf Meatballs!


Might sound weird but I figured since he's Swedish, some might appreciate it. Just a suggestion...  Smiley

Unless JFK or Gustaf have any suggestions, I will just make a Nyman Nationals team for the 3rd

As the 4th richest man, I will add a second conference

The Northeast Division
Manhattan Traders
New England Nerds
Maryland Aknos

Southern Division
Tennessee Countrymen
Carolina Fire
Miami Security

Midwest Division
Green Bay Cheeseheads
Chicago Wind
Cleveland Dawg Pound

King, we should combine these somehow.

BTW, I have a really strange idea. If we could match up each of these teams with a real team, and pick a year, I could use Whatifsports.com and simulate a season.

Hey King I would like to become a part owner in this new football league. How about we split this league 50/50.

Me and Akno already own 50/50 of the league. You could always buy the Pittsburgh team and name it what you want.

Sure I'll buy the Pittsburgh Soulties but the name stays. How much do you want?

No...that's not going to work. I suggested Melissa Brown Memorial Field but I think a certain member would not like that name.   Smiley

When people buy the teams they can name the stadium.

I'm buying the Ohio Riverside, moving them to Fort Wayne, and renaming them to the 'Fort Wayne Way-Better-Than-Thous'.

King, I already trademarked the three team names I proposed, so unless we can reach an accomodation, you aren't going to have a team named the Florida Oranges.  I've also take the liberty of trademarking Florida Orange, Florida Juice, Florida Citrus, Florida Grapefruit, Florida Tangerines, Flordia Lemons, Florida Limes, and Florida Key Limes, as well as each of those team names for Tampa, Tampa Bay, Orlando, and Miami in connection with professional sports teams just to cover all the bases.  It's amazing how much piece of mind a little money can buy you under trademark law.

I am looking for minor investors (read: nobody you've heard of, mostly fellow board members at Bartlett Bank) to join up with me to buy the Virginia Devils, to be re-named the Richmond X-Men (since Nyman and Baltimore are taken...).

$12 million for Pittsburgh Soulties

I will give you 65% ownership of the Florida Oranges
