In a move we have to believe is somewhat unprecedented, the National Arena League has terminated the Albany Empire franchise. This is the franchise that was owned by former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown.
Brown’s time as a team owner had proven to be just as tumultuous and riddled with controversy as his time in the NFL and his personal life. Brown has been accused of not paying players, locking them out of their hotel rooms and even scammed fans into thinking he would play and then backed out.
