YES! My Rivermen haven't broken my heart for once and actually won the championship! Looking forward to the offseason (Especially as to learn of the fate of the Detroit Knights and the identities for the expansion teams in Philly and St. Louis)!

Hopefully the Blue Birds can pull off the three-peat! Also, I'm sorry if this has already been brought up, but who is the Abbott Cup named after?

As a New Yorker, I was glad the Lions didn't have the worst record in the AFL this year, but I certainly hope the Rivermen don't disappoint me in the playoffs like they usually do. I mean, the Bengals fan in me has gone through enough heartbreak in the playoffs under Marvin Lewis as it is, LOL.
Also, it was sad to hear about August Riddle passing away. Will his family maintain control of the Knights, or will they sell the team?

Here are some predictions for what will happen next in the offseason:
1. Some place in the western US will join Kansas City in the NAAF (I'm guessing Denver since they don't have any major professional sports teams in this universe yet IIRC, not to mention it would reduce travel costs for the former WFU teams).
2. The ACFL Hammers are forced out of Pittsburgh's Riverfront Stadium, thus they pack their bags and assuming that merger with the SFL is still on the table, will move to some market in the southern US (Not quite sure where though that would be big enough in the 1970s to support a team).
And while it's fresh in my mind, assuming this hasn't been brought up before, what are the Olympics like in the NAAF universe?

Are ECHO games televised at all? My guess is no, as this is a semi pro league, but I could be wrong.

If you don't mind, I have a question about the ECHO universe: What are the teams in the Ontario Elite Hockey League called? Also, are there any more semi pro hockey leagues in this universe? Or is it too early to reveal such things without spoiling anything?

Oh my, it looks like the PAFC is beginning to come apart. Although, what's Julian Bradshaw's role with the Chicago Stars exactly? Is he next in line to own that team whenever his father dies? And on a more unrelated note, what's professional basketball and hockey like in the AFL universe?
Anyway, great write up as usual, DireBear! Looking forward to the rest of the offseason, especially with the New York Dutch Lions joining the AFL and what their uniforms will be like!

This may be my first post in this topic, but I am really enjoying this league so far! Although I haven’t decided on my favorite team yet, I wouldn’t be surprised to see Omaha move to the bigger market such as Kansas City in the offseason. This is just speculation on my behalf however. Also, are MLA games televised at all?
Anyway, keep up the good work, Jayhawk!

Too bad my Rivermen missed the playoffs again, but I guess I’ll pull for the underdog Crows in the playoffs! Also, what would you say are the chances of the AFL having a community owned team somewhere down the line?
