The efl just released their new updated and supposedly final 2012 schedule. Ohio is somehow in the Western Conference. Craziest thing is the league championship game is scheduled for Nowhere, Arizona. Come on, Sedona, Arizona? A city in the middle of nowhere with a population of about 10k. Almost all the teams are from the SE United States, would have made more sense to put the championship game somewhere closer to the majority of your teams.
The "new" schedule leaves a lot to be desired also. Did someone make this up at the last minute with no thought put into it? I especially like the teams that start the season with bye's, LOL. That and the fact that some of the teams seasons end close to a month prior to the start of the playoffs.

You never quite know with the schedules. It could have been that the fields would not be available for better dates, so a new league has to take what they can get. |

That would make sense, except Kim and the efl league office did not communicate with the team GM's as to what dates would work in each market. The efl put out the new schedule and now the teams have to scramble to find venues that have those dates available.

OK here is some poop on the efl and Kim Leonard Mosby. Supposedly the efl has a war chest of $2.1 million. Kim states he just wrote a "personal" check for $680,000 for equipment for the 13 teams in the league. That would leave the league coffers with a little over $1.4 million. He also stated me had won a lawsuit for $1.5 million and that is where the moeny came from to start the league. How does $1.5 million turn into $2.1 million? I can find no public record of him winning a penny in any lawsuit. And why is the league finances going through his personal checking account?

I think I figured out why the EFL wants to have it's championship game in Sedona, AZ. One of the people running for mayor of Sedona is Bradley R. Earle. The same Bradley R. Earle who is Vice President of League Operations for the ELF. How would that be for a campaign slogan. "I brought Pro* Football to Sedona!" *Your mileage may vary. m.redrocknews.com/News/city-election-season-returns.html |

If you have been reading facebook page ExclusiveFootball FactorFiction, then you have to wonder if Bradley has a snow balls chance in Sedona of becoming mayor. Better campaign slogan, I went to bed with Kim Mosby. |

efl with teams with locations TBD. Season starts in a little over a month. All those players who paid their $65 tryout fees ($85 at the gate to the gopher hole fields) completely ripped off.

Georgia is out, California is non operational, Maryland is no where. That leaves you SC, NC, FL and AK.
