You can tell they were all designed by the same firm.

This is like one of those neighborhoods where every house is the same, just reversed or painted differently.

Hotshots is bad.

And is going to lead to some really distasteful writing, ex: “hotshots get burned by...”

Impressed with the names, underwhelmed by the logos

They look like those terrible team logos in sports video games that didn't have the official NFL franchise license

I'll definitely catch an Iron game or two.

They all seem very "meh". But then again, I wasn't expecting much from the names and logo department of the AAF.

You serious?

There isn’t just going to be one player for the team....There will be multiple Apollos players.

Why do people keep trying sports teams in Atlanta? The only one with a fan base that consistently fills their stadium is soccer.

The teams kind of remind me of the made up teams in Madden & NCAA.

I am excited about this league. Has the potential to be a legit NFL minor league.

This league has a real shot due to its leadership

Bill Polian is a Co-Founder of the league. There are several former NFL athletes involved at the executive level such as Jared Allen and Hines Ward. Mike Singletary is the head coach for Memphis.

He should just be the QB. He's gotta be better than anyone else they can find.

Yes. They have stated the QB will not get special treatment.

Would be nice to see each team hire separate marketing agencies. There’s a lack of individual character. I like the concepts but they all look too similar and it’s a bit cheesy. It’s like the league bought the 8 team logo discount package.

What effect do you guys believe the AAF will have on College Football?
Can players go straight from high school to the AAF?

I don't think so. Tweener guys can stay home vs the CFL.
