Aaf Championship Trophy
The AAF ended up being a dress rehearsal for the XFL coverage I provided the following season. And the plane ticket I was going to use to cover the Alliance Championship? I ended up using it to. The AFC champions get the Lamar Hunt Trophy, memorializing the principal founder of the American Football League that later merged with the NFL. One of the prestigious individual honors is the Walter Payton Man of the Year, which recognizes the star Chicago Bears player for his off-field work. The AAF will announce its suspending operations on Tuesday at 5 p.m. ET; The announcement comes just weeks after Tom Dundon sunk $70 million in cash into the upstart football league. The AAF only has had eight weeks of competition, with four more remaining, including the Championship Game.
The original XFL championship game was held at the site of the team with the best record overall. Depending on venue schedules. I wouldn’t mind if the league did that again. It’s a reward for the team with the best overall record.
If the XFL goes with a neutral site. Where should the game be? The AAF scheduled their championship in Vegas before moving it to Jerry Jones practice facility.

The name of the game itself is another story. No Big game at the end or Million Dollar Game this time. Does the XFL brand this game with Bowl in the title like The Alpha Bowl or XFL Bowl or does the league just go the generic route with The XFL Championship game. Could the game be named after a historic football figure. Like the Lombardi trophy but perhaps dedicated to the first pro football player ever in William 'Pudge' Heffelfinger. Not sure if that name has a good ring to it. The Heffelfinger trophy might not sound great but he’s the first football player to ever be paid to play. Something like that could be a way of honoring the history of pro football.
