I'm not sure who does Billings's jerseys but they're falling apart. Two players have the letters peeling off their back nameplates. Does the league have a contract with an apparel company or is it up to each team to arrange to buy their own jerseys?

i will update the final statistics when they become available. i would note that Charles Samuels almost got the game ball, but it was Trevor Kennedy at the beginning of the game which really made the difference in this game.

Does the league have a contract with an apparel company or is it up to each team to arrange to buy their own jerseys? Teams have to buy their own jerseys. I know for a fact the Empire and the Barnstormers maintained their Russell contracts after dropping down from AFL. I'm not sure who does Billings's jerseys.

This has been a fun game. Really though, aren't they all fun when the Empire win! Special thanks to David for setting up a terrific game thread. I always keep up two screens, one on page one and one on the current page. Throughout the games, I am constantly referencing page one. Thank you David for making that possible. Huge thanks to Kasey, DiamondThief and Yeseeka for being here and keeping the conversation going. Big thanks to Larry Weir and Dennis Patchin for a great radio call which allowed us all to keep up with the game. I can't think of anyone I remember doing a better game call. Larry Weir in particular has helped make me even more of an Empire fan. I've checked the schedule for the Empire next week. The graduation ceremony for Jessica and I are next Saturday, so I don't think we will be able to be here. I also know that Angi and the rest of the family will be coming down to Berkeley. Jessica, Angi and Kasey's oldest brother is hosting a party for us in San Francisco that night. If I have a chance, I will check in. This has been an amazing season for the Empire and it's a ride I am enjoying!
