What does TCU have to do with Versus?

Versus is a fine channel for what it is.
TCU is apart of the Mountain West and the Mountain West has a contract with Versus. We only get like one game (usually against the WORST team in the conference) and not everyone has that network.

I'd rather the Arena League go for something more than Versus.

That network just seems second rate to me.

Just some recent news, the Milwaukee Iron changed their name to the Milwaukee Mustangs, branding a new logo, similar to the Denver Broncos.

Their doing this to relate to their former identity. The original team was called the Milwaukee Mustangs:



I remember the first time I saw that team back in the 90's and thinking: "Good God, they have ugly colors...."

The Arena League is a second rate league. You really can't expect them to get a lot of games on major networks. The ratings do not justify that.

You cannot really blame Versus completely for what game they show. Mountain West has a say in what games are shown. At least that is how TV contracts usually work.

Some of these teams either downgraded their logos or just went back to looking like a generic, upstart league again as they did in the 80's and 90's.
You are right! I really didnt like the Georgia logo!
