The best part of that article was when it mentioned that Miller and Jackson were going to/looking to purchase the team from Pewonski...that's great news

Hey Chris,
I feel for you and the other guys....I think you know that. But please, keep some of the personal stuff off the forums. We do have children here.
If you'd like to chat with me, please e-mail me directly, ok? Let's try to keep some of the personal feelings personal though.

folks I want to offer my advice Columbia can not support a AF 2 arena football team. To have a AF2 team and to make any money you would have to draw way over 6000 a game and I don't know what the rent is at USC but it aint going to happen. An AF 2 team to be any where close to operated correctly would require a staff of 8 paided employees and numerous folks working on game day. I know you want to join a league that is decent but you would have to produce from day one. I'm one of these folks who chooses to look at things in a open minded way. Columbia could make it and do well in several leagues except the NIFL those days are over. You're going to be fine but this playing around and goofing off aint going to make it. If you expect to make it in this game you will have to sell sponsorships, and get more people to the games. I see we still have not even given any thought to my suggestions in a earlier post folks its basic logic the key to the sucess of Stinger ball depends on a friendship with Ft Jackson is that to hard to understand.

Spartans....
I have mentioned this to Mr. Jackson and he's looking into what can be done to harness the numbers at Ft. Jackson. He wasn't even aware how large that installation was, as he's not from the area in Columbia.
Rest assured, I passed along a few of your ideas along with some of my own and we're currently trying to get them put in place to help this team out with fan support.
Tony, I appreciate all you've done and are doing for us. I will do my best to get out to a Spartans game this season.

Columbia hold your head up high - Be proud of what you have you have come along way. I want to see if I can get a message to Stinger HQ before the next game I want all the Staff, players, and you Bill to come out holding hands.
You are a family together you will overcome. This negative negative should be put away. You have seen more than your share of the storms now put away the umbrella folks the sun is coming out tomorrow.
As for Spartan football games come on down I want you to see what two years of hard work faith and long hours will bring you.

i agree with chris....to much shady business going on...1500 people? was he blind? if there were 600 people there it was that and all....pewonski won't sell this team therefore i think this will be the last season....it is a mirror image of what happened in charleston...
