PRESIDENTS ANNOUNCEMENT!

The LFL’s Commissioner (MITCHELL S. MORTAZA) came out this week to give an announcement about the league. One paragraph in particular picked my interest. The paragraph reads:

“AS A DIRECT REFLECTION OF OUR HARDWORK … LEAGUE WITH MORE OPPORTUNITIES BEING PRESENTED THAN WE CAN PERSUE.”

The reason why it interests me some much is that he goes on to discuss the many opportunities the league now has based on its ability to entertain the masses and still maintain a profit. Is the league not making enough money in the United States?

Now he is talking about possibly having international games, teams, and sponsors. Which is great but what I don’t think he realizes is the logistics or the issues of having these games in other countries. For example the same type of football over here is going to be a lot different then the football leagues from another country, also their culture might not support the teams and could consider the sport to exploit women.

Another issue I have with this is that there is a number of cities within the United States that still doesn’t have the LFL or cities that do and not that many people know about it. I feel the first thing he should do is hold a press conference in every city that the LFL has and get additional support from the community I.E advertising, sponsorship, media, and investors. Before the League expands to fast lets secure its survival here in the United States. Now if the only investors are coming from international companies than there is a big problem and the league wont last.

What are your thoughts? What should the league do? Leave your posts here, your opinion matters!
