Goodbye AFL?

[ill]

Arena Football League's L.A. KISS apparently have folded, leaving players and fans in the dark

The KISS, named after the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band led by co-owners Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, became the third AFL team to fold and the fifth to leave the league over the past week. In that span, the Orlando Predators and Portland Steel also folded, and the Jacksonville and Arizona franchises announced intentions to join the rival Indoor Football League. That leaves just four teams in the AFL, half the number that started the 2015 season.

Yeah, looks like the IFL wins this one.

I'm surprised they were able to come back from their first folded season. I think this is the death knell.

It's fun live, because it's relatively inexpensive entertainment.

Problem is that it's hard for me to really buy in. Even when I had season tickets, I barely followed the games I didn't attend.

I remember getting completely, irrationally hyped for the whole "no coin toss" thing and the "no fair catch" thing because I thought some people were going to get lit up.

It wound up being the sporting equivalent of Al Capone's vault.
