Who would have guessed that the LFL team would probably be the most organized team in Omaha. The Nighthawks are a mess and the Beef can't even pay their bills either.

I forgot about that cocaine story (did I read that in the paper or here??) ... apparently something to it.   Too bad.  I'm sure someone will keep arena football going in Omaha... I would guess we're among the better performing of these bush league markets.

NY Jets to Omaha Beef. If that's not enough to get him to question his faith, nothing can. To say he's offended is probably an understatement.

Don't expect IFL to stand pat in offseason
Bob Hamar / World-Herald News Service wrote:Lincoln, Omaha and Sioux City all played in the Champions Professional Indoor Football League this season. All of those could possibly end up in the IFL as the league attempts to create several pods of teams.

The CPIFL has merged with the Lone Star Football League adding four Texas and one New Mexico based teams to the league. Sounds like they will change the league game. Will make the league 14 teams.
