    They're mostly the same, just a lot of the kicking has been removed - no PATs or onside kicks - and the pace of play is quicker (less timeouts & play clock is shorter), but they can only rush five people.

    Gonna be through a quarter in half an hour, so that's 10-15mins per quarter faster than NFL speed.

    Fleet's O-Line is fucking horrendous.

    Bercovici is so thankful they can only rush 5.

    I fell asleep at the end of the first quarter - there are no highlights on their website, YouTube channel or app. You can't even see a box score

    Definitely still need to work on the presentation a bit. Fortunately there are highlights elsewhere on YT.

    QB play is too poor to make it worth watching all that much.

    Yeah, there were some pretty sloppy performances. Logan Woodside was the most impressive of the guys from last night, but you can see why most of these guys didn't make it.

    I've nothing on the app except a graphic of a field and some tripe about predicting the next play.

    They're all on aaf.com, I think. If you go there now you can probably catch them rehearsing their intro six or seven times.

    Long snapper, punter, and kicker. Looks exciting.

    Luis Perez looks good so far - he had some talk as a potential draft sleeper in the 2017 class, so hopefully he & Woodside will be the two guys who actually provide some consistently good QB play.

    Memphis clearly don't trust Hack. The question to raise there is "in that case, how bad was Zach Mettenberger?'

    I think he used to punt for the Bills(?). Brad Wing on the other side used to be the Giants punter until a season or two back.

    This Memphis offence has been abysmal.

    Pretty standard American TV ads from what I've seen. Weird place.

    This Birmingham team is pretty high on the list of potential teams to root for. Shame Patton can't catch anything outside his frame though.

    EDIT: Saved by a blurry replay

    Bill Bryson wrote a bit about American TV ads after moving back over there after years in the UK that amused me.

    a man at a bowling alley (men are pretty generally at bowling alleys in these things) grimaces after a poor shot and mutters to his partner, "It's these haemorrhoids again." And here's the thing. The buddy has some haemorrhoid cream in his pocket! Not in his gym bag, you understand, not in the glovebox of his car, but in his shirt pocket, where he can whip it out at a moment's notice and call the gang round. Extraordinary.

    That ad probably had just as much of its run time spent on outlining all the potential side effects as it did the actual advert.

    The other thing I find is that 80% of all car adverts seem to be for trucks, and most of them are based on shitting on other companies (this applies to internet/phone companies too).

    Jamar Summers has been balling. Think he was a Steelers pick in the 2018 draft, so it seems to be all the young guys that are showing out.

    EDIT: They signed him as a UDFA & let him go in the final cuts.

    If Hack can't complete a pass more than 5yds downfield he needs to get the fuck out of the AAF.
