Well there was a schedule but it has to be redone now because the Jacksonville Sharks have already dropped out of the league.  You would think that someone would learn that after not being able to play the last 3 years what would make them able to this year??  What a league...looks like everyone will be in the playoffs and everyone will be on the all-league team.  Maybe everyone should have jumped ship from the MFL...

I'm sorry I had to withdraw my team for 3 reasons. No money, the field contract expired and the team has not been registered in the State of Illinois to be the non-profit organization legally to have sponsors. Those three are being worked on as we speak. Time ran out, and I had to make the decision. Even though we got players in roster, but with no money and sponsors, it would be best not to inconvenience the other 4 teams and MFL in their entirety. Its just a business decision, but once I get all of these things squared up, we'll be back. Count on that.

Blah Blah, say what you want.

The thing is, you probably didn't know that the Sharks organization has already changed hands, and as a new owner, I'm making things right here and now, but, due to the fact that the organization is at chaos financially and hierachially, I wouldn't bring it active without things in place. The other teams wouldn't bring themselves into league without things in place, too. It's not up to league to say the team has to play in the league if the owner says they are not ready. If we were ready and league says no to the Sharks, we can go elsewhere. No ill wills. No complaints. The previous owner signed us up into MFL, and I had to digress that due to the fact the organization has nothing to work with unless I take care of 3 things I previously mentioned, and we can go from there. That's just a business nature. Nothing more, nothing less.

What good would you say if you don't know the facts beforehand?

Hmmm. I say it stinks, but it is better to know you are pulling out now, instead of game day like the previous owners did. Rumor has it the previous owners NEVER registered and are under investigation for tax evasion and fraud. You have a tough row to hoe, new owner, so I hope you get it straightened out. Even if it comes late in the season and only get to play one or two games, late is always better than never. In the event you do not. GET that team squared away and lets play some football. I am not sure your level of experience in semi-pro football, but a bunch of is from the other teams can give you the ups and downs if you do not already know them. Good Luck!

ok here goes the rumors about the sharks.....yes i did turn it over to someone else to run and no it's not because i'm in tax trouble or anything like that. For starters a team doesnt havent to be registered as a business if it isnt one. I personally funded this team for years out of my own pocket. It's just a bunch of guys getting together to play ball. I paid for things for the team out of kindness not to turn a buck. How can a guy be in trouble for losing over 15 grand in the 5 years he took take of the team ? before people start saying things they dont know try keeping things to yourself til you know the whole story. I see already that by letting someone else take over hasnt progressed the team in any matter i may return and start funding it myself again.

Tax evasion, my a$$. I neglected to mention that Sharks was privately funded, but with trying to get sponsors, I got lectured about the FEIN and registration with Department of Revenue as Athletic/Charitable, so I'm doing it under the advice, and then I can work with them. I learned that if you want something better, you gotta give something to make it work..... like there's always a catch if you want something. My apologies for being a bit abstract on this matter.

Hey, don't get salty on me, I was just vomiting back what I was spoon fed. Good you clarified it. It still stinks you guys are not in the league and some teams that got backed out on the last few years are angry and letting folks know about it. All I can say is actions will speak louder than words.
