I guess they did play the games on CBS Sports Network as well. Which wasn't in my cable package anyways.

Ironically, when I go to a Buffalo Wild Wings, they have nothing but CBS Sports Network.
So, for those wondering how the Valor made it to the Arena Bowl, the playoff system compensated for the lack of teams by using an aggregate system, much like soccer. As a result, Washington snuck into the championship against the Baltimore Whatevers.
I can't wait for expansion to round them up to 8 teams so we can have playoff berths and no awful teams making it in. It'd be like if the NCAA Tournament allowed the SWAC Champion to reach the Final Four automatically.

Ron Jaworksi says there will be four new teams next Arena Football season.
As for Arena Bowl XXI (played by two teams both owned by Ted Leonsis), Washington Valor are leading the Baltimore Brigade by 2 TDs after getting a TD on a surprise onside kick
EDIT: This is the surprise onside kick that led to a TD.

Washington Valor won Arena Bowl XXI
Kinda a mess because the confetti came out as the game ended, but the offense got another play because of a roughing the passer so yes, they had to play one more play on the confetti.

I'm hoping the AFL can expand to 8 next year like Jaws said. While I didn't get to a game, there was a fun energy around Albany with the game back in town. My brother had season tickets and my parents went to all but 2 games. Hoping things go up from here.

Jaws is already eying Atlantic City for expansion.
I don't see that area lasting long, unfortunately.
Town's a dump and everyone is miserable.

A 7-9 team won the Arena Bowl in 2006, but that was in an 18-team league

So the NAL Championship is set. The Carolina Cobras will host the Columbus Lions in two weeks. The Lions took down the No. 1 seed Massachusetts Pirates, 50-36, while the Cobras stomped the Jacksonville Sharks, 73-48.

The IFL is back to 8 teams given that Quad City has left the CIF to join the league, presumably to take advantage of the teams in the region.

And the rumor is that 3 more CIF teams may defect to the IFL as well. I've heard that Kansas City (Phantoms), Omaha (BEEF), and Bismarck (Bucks) could all join the IFL for next year as well.

So the CIF Schedule was released last week. Pretty much the story so far: The Kansas City Phantoms are dead. The West Michigan Ironmen are dead. Bismarck jumped to the IFL. Quad City jumped to the IFL. I'm thinking the IFL Schedule will be out in a couple weeks. I've heard they could have up to 12 teams, with rumors being that there may be a team in San Diego and a team in Salt Lake City.

West Michigan aren't dead, they just downgraded to glorified rec league status and is a lot like when Jeff Jarrett decided to be a karate master by heading to the McDojo and beating up kids.
