Has anybody else been watching this? It just started this week and I am liking it .

No kickoffs, no extra point kicks and a 35 second play clock. These are players
that didn't get drafted to the NFL but they are good.
 
I like the short play clock because they don't have time for all that posing stuff
in the endzone. I liked it !!

I watched it. I liked it. It is like REAL football, not like the NFL with so many rules it just took the game away. Know what I mean?

I liked it, but I got rubbed wrong by the constant "first" time for blah blah in aaf history stuff... did you know Trent Richardson is the first person in history to be legally blind to play in both the aaf and nfl? Birmingham makes history with the first shut out in aaf history.... and so on. It seemed like every other line was about firsts. As for the actual games though I enjoyed it and am glad there's still some football around.

I plan to wait a month before I watch. Been burned too many times by 'new' leagues.
 
I'll wait and see how this turns out. I like the first week of play. But we will see if it is good in a few weeks later.

The hits are brutal , it's fun to watch. Passes the time between the end of the superbowl and the NFL draft
 
I am liking the Arizona team because I like their uniforms and I like their name, the Hotshots !!!

I am liking the Birmingham Iron so far but the season is early so we will see how it goes.
I think it is refreshing for sure, have you noticed that the commercials are much shorter also?
The game seems to move much faster.
 
I am rooting for the Atlanta Legends , Just because of Denard Robinson lol
 
I never heard of it until a week ago, I might watch a few games to see how it is.

Mike Martz... he'll be great, until it counts.

Went with some friends to see them this past weekend. It was a fun game.. We'll see if they last.
 
It was fun watching them play in the snow last night, don't get to watch snow
games because most have covered stadiums. Still liking the short commercials lol.
 
I am still rooting for Birmingham and I am still enjoying watching.
I hope it is successful.
 
Well it appears that Orlando is going to be the best, any Orlando fans ?
 
My Arizona Hotshots aren't doing very well 🙁

I'm not giving up on them yet.
 
I wasn`t aware of this league. They have already played 7 games. Thanks I may check it out. By the way the XFL football league starts in 2020 if you haven`t heard.

Yeah I heard about it, they wanted to launch before XFL, which was pretty smart. I can't tell if it will be a success or not, but I hope so.
 
So it looks as if the fan base for the AAF is actually pretty high but they don't think the league will actually survive past this season

Indeed. Was kind of sad watching it go but most people saw it coming. Can't run a business on hopes and dreams
