Season 7 is almost here. Everyone is geeked up and ready. In preparation, I’ve been going over some old business and I just uploaded some stats from season 5, yes season 5. The last day of season 5 in fact, April 8th, 2006. You can view those stats in statcentral, as usual.
It’s finally here, season 7. Get your balls out, prepare your ratty tees and sweats. Season 7 will be like no other – I don’t know why yet, but I can assure you that this one will be special. You can start the trash talk now.
The 7th inaugural season is fast approaching. Sometime mid October the AFBL crew will once again lace up whatever shoes they have handy to attempt basketball at the McCall Elementary School.

The AFBlog came together so nicely because it’s called the AFBlog. It’s a perfect nomeclature. It nestles into itself splendindly. I wish all things could be named so easily. A catchy title is half the battle. Look at teams like the Tampa Bay Devil Rays or Atlanta Thrashers. How [...]
All we needed was a small flame beneath the collective toochis of the AFBL to return the league to it’s prodigious numbers. 12 players in total filled the gym for what will be remembered as a awful display of basketballing.
