SALT LAKE CITY, Utah -- The Utah Raptors' owner, WithaCapitalG, announced plans to open the season in a new stadium for the 2020 season with a new facility sponsor.

The Raptors will move on from sharing Rice-Eccles Stadium with the University of Utah and open a dual-purpose stadium to be shared with the MLS team Real Salt Lake. This 61,550 seat stadium will include an open-air top making for frigid Salt Lake games in November and December. 

"We've worked at this for quite some time," WithaCapitalG said, "It's exciting to usher in a new era like this with a brand new coach in Saban. We'd of course like to thank the Utah Utes for their hospitality over these past few years."

The new stadium also brings in a new, SLC-based sponsor. BRCC Stadium is headlined by Black Rifle Coffee Company. Noted for their work with US veterans. Fans asking for renderings will have to wait until an artist rendition can be completed.

"We have no renderings yet but will open those to the public as soon as they come available," WithaCapitalG said, "But for now, I'm on vacation. So those don't seem quite as important right now."

Breaking News

Kansas City has just announced their training camp will be held at Rollins College in Winter Park, FL. When asked why this choice was made, the team’s owner commented

“I have no clue where the college is, I just know it’s 12 mins from DisneyWorld and that will be a treat for the guys. We have no intentions to train at the school. We are getting dorms cheap and then heading to the Magic Kingdom every day of camp. Not only will the guys walk 20 miles a day, but they will learn to dream big. I picked a college because the commissioner told us it had to be a college. On an unrelated note, please don’t tell Gritty.”

An odd move from KC’s owner, but what else do you expect from a guy who insists you call him by his user handle?

ORLANDO GALACTICS STADIUM

The Galactics announced that a brand new stadium will be opened for the 2020 season to replace the older Orlando Stadium. Orlando Stadium has been the team's stadium for as long as they have been in the city. It is a pretty typical open-air stadium that holds 60,000. Nothing too special about it. 

With their new stadium which won't be too far from downtown Orlando will be a part of a new complex. The Stadium will have a futuristic style roof that gives a very space-like design. The stadium will be known as "Supernova Stadium: and will hold 67,521, which is a bit smaller than other stadiums in the AtlFL. Wallflower has no concerns, however, stating the Stadium will have a grand and unique atmosphere. He also mentioned the ability to expand seating if necessary for playoff or even championship games. The Building will feature many colourful lights and designs to give it an intergalactic feel. 


Wallflower also noted that the Scarecrows decision to train within the Orlando market was not a concern, "I'm sure the QB's can take some accuracy tips from some Stormtroopers."

Just while we wait a bit, I threw a draft post together for Arizona.  Maybe Joe Burrow isn't Tiger King any more but maybe Scorpion King? 

With apologies for the delay, the Kentucky Stallions select Receiver Jerry Jeudy from the University of Alabama.
