Arena Football League Hanging by a Thread
Published: December 14, 2008
2009 Season Still On – For Now
The niche market that is the Arena Football League, which has been around as a spring gridiron alternative since 1987, may be a thing of the past. Although the league has released a statement indicating that their Board of Directors have voted not to suspend the 2009 season, the mere fact that this came up cannot be good for a sport that has always struggled to be accepted. Some of the owners voted to suspend the upcoming season while the league “formulates a new economic model.”
The AFL has yet to release a schedule and stated that the “Board will continue to meet regularly to examine any and all long-term structural improvement options for the AFL.” Sounds like the kiss if death.

While attendance and ratings have always been troubling issues, the fact that ESPN covers the AFL had been viewed as a springboard for bigger and better things. That apparently did not occur, as the recent developments have shown.
If a one-year hiatus does take place, it will be even more difficult to bring back the fans that were there in the first place. With a starting month of February, teams will have to solidify dates at home arenas and cannot wait much longer. Figure on certain teams sitting out the season and a shortened schedule to follow.
The worst case scenario would be for teams to be unable to complete their schedule and games to be cancelled. Skipping a year would be the better of the two.

Well, the AFL decided to skip the upcoming season and hope to return in 2010. Fat chance. For a struggling entity, a year off is the kiss of death. The odd part of this is that the so-called ‘celebrity’ owners (Bon Jovi, Elway, Jerry Jones) voted to not play and the little guys – such as the new husband and wife team who bought the NY Dragons – wanted to go forward.
