    • @NinhLyUK
      @NinhLyUK  9 лет назад +15

      ***** Hey Nick, welcome back! I agree with you ... Arena Football is better than what most people give it credit for. It's actually pretty fun to watch and it plays a damn-sight quicker than the NFL. I still believe that the NFL comes up with a development league that plays in summer, but Arena Football is a viable substitute.
      Thanks for stopping by! :)

    • @rockvilleraven
      @rockvilleraven 8 лет назад +2

      +Nick Sharrer Where I live we have a minor league variant called indoor football which is essentially the same game without the rebound nets. They just hang a goal post from the ceiling. There's a team called the Maryland Eagles which play at an ice rink covered with turf in Wheaton, MD. The rebound nets were patented by the Arena Football League. Washington will get an expansion team next year, that will play at the Verizon Center and they just hired their head coach. They used to have a team in the early days of the league called the Commandos.

    • @NinhLyUK
      @NinhLyUK  6 лет назад

      Yeah, Arena Football has that advantage. Too bad there's only 5 teams left in the league.

  • @bulldogsbob
    @bulldogsbob 8 лет назад +119

    As a huge football fan I can watch any form of it and it's a shame that arena is not more popular it's a very fun exititing game and it's very fan friendly. The league though always have terms doling even one that have been around for a while like the Voodoo.

    • @NinhLyUK
      @NinhLyUK  8 лет назад +4

      +bulldogsbob Agreed. It's a pretty cool version of football and I'm so surprised that it's not taken off the way it probably should?

    • @bulldogsbob
      @bulldogsbob 8 лет назад +3

      A huge reason is all the terms that have folded even good teams like the sabercats. A cool hung I think you should mention is that is a ball goes out of bounds and a fan catches it the fan gets to keep the ball.

    • @DaTwistedOne1
      @DaTwistedOne1 8 лет назад

      Not always. Some teams won't let you keep the ball.

    • @NinhLyUK
      @NinhLyUK  7 лет назад +45

      Unfortunately, indoor football has different strategies due to the field size and would not be suitable for an NFL D-League. Besides, the NFL is already developing an outdoor D-League as we speak.

      the problem with that is just because you're in the AFL doesn't mean you weren't good enough to play in the NFL some people just fit better in the AFL. Making the AFL a developmental league would be a direct insult to the skill of these athletes. Keep in mind they're professional too.

    I like arena football. It's action-packed and high scoring. I'm bummed that the Arena Football League folded, and now I don't have an indoor football team to cheer for, but the Indoor Football League, which I just discovered, streams its games on its RUclips channel, so that's like a treasure chest.

      There's a few, yeah. But i don't think it's the fact that there's so many different leagues that's the problem.

    Not a bad rundown. There was one thing that you did get wrong which I am unsure if someone pointed out (based on the AFL rulebook).
    Of the three lineman, one of the tackles is designated a tight end. It is not a specific location so either of the tackles can designate themselves as the tight end for the play by raising his hand prior to the snap of the ball to signal to the referees that he is the tight end and eligible to catch a pass.
    In your image, the tight end you referred to is one of the three wide receivers (see my rough outline below).
    Of the three wide receivers, one is designated a "man in motion" and is the only player on the offensive team that can make a forward or lateral motion behind the line of scrimmage prior to the snap.

    QB WR

    I've always prefered the arena rules over the American traditional rules. Sucks that 3 teams left the league this season (vegas and NO folding and Spokane going to the IFL). But we usually end up bouncing back one way or another.

    • @NinhLyUK

    One thing about the safety. I'm fairly certain that an offensive player is tackled in their own endzone, the defense gets 2 points (which you addressed) AND the ball (I could be wrong, though, having been wrong before)

    You did miss one rule about Arena Football. A ball carrier is allowed to use the walls/boards along the sidelines as rebound walls as long as they are not pushed into the wall. If they are pushed into the wall, they are considered to be out of bounds and are down, all other instances of hitting the walls do not constitute being out of bounds.
    Arena Football is so much fun to watch, though it has fallen off a lot lately. Games are usually very high scoring and because of how fast paced everything is it lends itself well to entertainment.

    • @NinhLyUK
      @NinhLyUK  5 лет назад

      There's lots of rules I didn't explain bro. It's virtually impossible to explain the rule book in less than 6 minutes.
      Having said that, Arena Football is really fun. Too bad they've (as you correctly pointed out) fallen off a cliff as of late.

I don't know if you're still adding sports to your list of videos to make but I thought I might just throw this one out there. And also Polo is another sport I'd love to see you do a video on. Keep up the good work.

    • @NinhLyUK
      @NinhLyUK  9 лет назад

      Henry 52 Yes I have ... it's bat-sh*t crazy! There are no rules - you just have to get the ball to the other side of the field BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY! This includes punching, kicking, grappling etc. Why it's called Calcio Storico (Historic Football) is beyond me, as kicking the ball is rare.

    • @NinhLyUK
      @NinhLyUK  8 лет назад

      Toontowwn Rewritten Don't think it needs a video to explain. it's fairly easy:
      Every team plays six games against the other three teams in its division, facing off twice per season - once at home and once on the road.
      Every team plays one game against each of the four teams from a division in the other conference once per season - two games at home and two on the road. These matchups are also determined by a rotation, which ensures that all teams play every team from every division in the other conference once every four years.
      Every team plays its remaining two games against teams from the two remaining divisions in its own conference - one game at home and the other on the road. The matchups are determined by where the teams finished in their divisions in the previous season. For example, a team that finished the previous year in third place in its division will play the third-place teams from the two other divisions in its conference

    The tight end is actually one of the three linemen. When the offense breaks the huddle, one of the linemen will raise his hand which signals that he’s the tight end and therefore an eligible receiver. It’s very rare that a tight end catches a pass in the AFL though.
