Full article. Hopefully the team can prosper in Cleveland. I'm sure the AFL will return to Vegas, though. |

Interesting. I wonder why they left Vegas? Seems like with none of the big pro leagues there, it would be a great spot for an AFL team. |

Well, the team hasn't really done all that well in Vegas, and it hasn't brought in the crowds there were hoping for (last season they moved to a 6000-seater arena). They claim that part of the problem is that the ownership group was not a local one - a local ownership group could better cater to the local sports community. I think that's somewhat true. Two ArenaBowls have been held there with success, and the 2008 ArenaBowl will be there too. I think it's a prime place for an AFL team. Give it five years, and the AFL will be back in Vegas. |
