I remember the WFL and the opening animation that was the intro for
each game. I also remember a couple of the teams and watching some of the
games as a boy at the time. |

I still remember watching the WFL games televised by WUTV -Grande Island
NY (Buffalo suburb.) Back in those days the CFL teams would bolster their
rosters with late cuts from the NFL teams during August and early Sept.
I still remember watching late CFL cuts moving to the WFL weeks later. Much
to the league's embarassment the colour commentator Alex Hawkins described
most of the action on the field most nights as sloppy. We Canadians could
have told him that many of the players were double rejects. They had been
cut by the NFL and CFL. |

I still remember watching one of the first games So. Cal vs. Birmingham
it ended up being a low scoring game 8-7 in favor of the Birmingham Americans.
I can^t even rember who was playing on the teams I Think Charlie Harraway
for the Americas and I think Tony Adams for the Sun, but after all these
years I would be just guesing. But I do remember how it was found out that
they were under financed and that was when was reported that attendance
was padded. if they had come in with the proper financing and management
people it might of lasted longer, maybe it might not be around today but
it might of lasted longer than it did. |

when the w.f.l. started in 1974 I was so happy I love football so much
and as a 15 yr.old back then the players were my heroes. hated when the
league folded hoped It would'nt, great team nicknames played in great cities,
but life goes on thanks for the very nice site that we can all check out. |

Tommy Reamon, was the co-MVP and leading rusher of the WFL's Florida
Blazers in the 1974 season. His brother Charles Reamon played defensive
back for the Birmingham Americans and Chicago Fire in 1974. We actually
played against each other in Ala. stadium. Great to have our website back
in motion. |

I was 11yrs old when my beloved B'ham Americans played and won the first
and only World Bowl. My Dad wouldn't take me to the game because it was
pouring ran and cold. After the game sheriffs deputies confiscated the uniforms
and equipment of the players because the owners couldn't pay the bills.
What a shame for these guys to go out that way. The trophy from the World
Bowl was recently found and is now in the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame. A
pipe fitter working on renovations at Legion Field found it in a box hidden
away in a back room, thought it looked intersting and asked what it was.
What a great piece of football history!!! Go Americans!! |

I had a one game career with the Jacksonville Express in 1975. Made
the team and then was cut after the first game. There are still several
old Express players in the Jacksonville area. Good luck and thanks for the
memories. Clint |
