  Pittsburgh has a new arena team this year, they're called the Power. Former Steeler Lynn Swann is a part owner.

  Not sure why the Destroyers didn't come back....If I recall they were doing fairly well attendance wise. I'm sure eventually Columbus will have another arena team.
  
  Also, a moment of silence for another fallen arena team.....My Mahoning Valley Thunder

  The whole league went belly up and they've been trying with some new teams in the original cities but its not working like it used to

  Interesting that Dayton is the Silverbacks. Didn't there used to be an indoor soccer team in Cincinnati with that name?

  How the fuck does Marion have a team?

  They used to be called the Miami Valley Silverbacks. I think a woman poster danced for them on the old site.

  They have an arena there at the fairgrounds. They almost moved to Columbus Fairgrounds, but I guess the rent was too high there.

  The old Marion Mayhem did quite well. Just a shame they failed and now the Blue Racers are there. I may try to make it up for a Canton Cougars game this springs. I had fun at Canton Legends games years ago.
