Rumor has it that the USFA has signed a michigan based team away from the great MCFL...anyone have definitive info??
I'm not naming the team in case it is not true.

Another Fu©kin idiot that thinks the USFA sucks, but will never "put their money with their mouth is".....and I don't mean some bullshi† challenge, but actually coming into the league and seeing that you won't go undefeated, and you won't win the championship.....One game don't prove shi†, but that you were better that day...truth is, you can compete week in week out!

I wouldn't be suprised in the least actually. The MCFL really seems to be dropping the ball in recent years. I don't know if it is arrogance or apathy but if things don't change I think we will be a second tier league sooner rather than later.. Not that I am all that impressed with the USFA, but they are very much working hard to improve which is something the MCFL appears to not be doing I'm afraid.

Don C, Are you "driveblock" on the other boards? I saw that person posting info about the Cleveland Cobras but thought you were playing with the Sems now. Just trying to keep track of who is who, and playing with each team. Thanks |

The USFA is a decent league, but they are not top flight yet. Last year it was a 2 team league with Lima and Beaver County. They added quite a few teams and that helps, but they didn't add any quality to the other half of the league where Lima resides. If they can get a name or two on that side they can surpass the MCFL. The MCFL had a great recruiting year last year, but seems to be in the wrong direction now. The newcomers from last year are carrying the banner for the MCFL now. The loss of the Force drops the MCFL to 11 teams, but only the Ravens, Seminoles, or Wolverines have a chance to win the league. The Fire can be considered since they upset the Wolverines in the playoffs, but changes are needed are the MCFL will become a dinosaur.

I gotta say this, and it will probably tick a lot of people off at me for saying this but I dont care. If the Force wnat to leave the MCFL I say good riddance! All that dam soap opera nonsense was giving the whole league a black eye. After repeated requests to stop the bullsh!t, they just kept going and going with 15 page posts of coach this and boo hoo that. I got tired of it and know that I was not alone in thinking so. The Force was and is a great team that could whoop butt, but the crying on message boards talking about peoples kids and sick wives/girlfriends made me downright sick. So if they want to stay in the MCFL... please.... I AM BEGGING YOU BE PROFESSIONAL AND DONT CRY ON THE MESSAGEBOARDS!!!!! If not, go ahead and poison the USFL or whatever league with your constant drama. It only reflects bad on the league as whole when you do that. How could the MCFL move to the next level when one of its champions are constantly attacking people bringing up personal crap? You were our champion of 06 for petes sake! Way to represent us, dumbf^cks.

The Fire can be considered since they upset the Wolverines in the playoffs, but changes are needed are the MCFL will become a dinosaur. So the addition of the Admirals, WCW, Grand Rapids, Strength and the Gators hasn't increased the comptetion in the West??? I beg to differ. And there were far more good teams than just us and the Vipers. Akron, WV. Crash, WV Gladiators were all good teams, and the Motor City Soldiers for being in their first year, did a heck of a job. I'm not saying we are top flight yet either, but we are making strides to improve our league. But to say the West has not added any quality, is a slap in the face to the Michigan teams I mentioned earlier. |

Aw shucks, Dave. Since I aint working the club seen since I got married, I gotta let my aggression out some how. You traveling with the Ravens down to Florida? Pass on my hope to all the Ravens that they travel safe, kick butt and stay healthy (and convince Blev to play next year, I wanna get a crack at him lol).

They are in the upper teir of teams in the state. All those teams are middle of the pack teams at best. |

No I won't be making the trip down,I'm just hangin out with the guys getting to know them a lil bit...My season won't start till we start camp for 08 I'll get my hands dirty then  ...but from what I've seen so far I'm impressed...work ethic is outstanding when you see 300 + lb. lineman running up 3 flights of stairs with 45 lb. plates for a half hour you understand why they are champions...Carlos and E definitely got there minds right...I had to leave practice early today cuz #24 Quincy Burts dislocated his shoulder but KAM told me after I left to take Quincy to the E.M. it got pretty intense so they are ready to bring some more jewelry back home!!! |
