On Sunday, Orlando Predators' coach Rob Keefe was arrested on domestic violence charges. It's the first time that the Arena Football League has had to deal with a domestic violence case since the battle against domestic violence came to the forefront of public awareness earlier this year.

The Spokane Shock missed out on yet another chance to climb to .500 on the season, dropping their second home game of the season, 51-42, to the Tampa Bay Storm. The game was marked by sloppy execution on offense and dominant performances from both defenses, especially in the scoreless third quarter.

A bizarre night in the Arena Football League got a heck of a lot more bizarre in the second quarter of the clash between the Pittsburgh Power and the Orlando Predators. Prior to the start of the first game of the 25th season, the Predators put their entire team on recallable assignment, while the Power released their entire roster.

An Open Letter to Predators Ownership: When you bought the Orlando Predators, we, the fans, couldn't have been happier that you rescued our franchise from the doldrums of league ownership and potential financial ruin.

11,017 fans packed into the stadium for the city's first ever ArenaBowl and its second Arena Football championship game. Previously, the 2008 ArenaCup ended in a disaster, as the Tennessee Valley Vipers ripped the hearts out of the Shock with a 56-55 overtime defeat.

Adam Markowitz Saturday May 5, 2012 TAMPA BAY – There are just no two ways around it. The 2012 Orlando Predators have given up on Head Coach Brett Munsey. When the Preds hired Munsey to coach them for this season, I thought that it was a great signing. He is an ArenaBowl winning coach, and I still contend that he is one of the best Xs and Os coaches that this league has to offer. However, there comes a time for virtually every coach to move on from his team and a time for every team to move o...

Adam Markowitz Saturday August 2, 2014 ORLANDO -- The Orlando Predators and the Pittsburgh Power started off the 2012 season against each other with scabs playing on the field for both sides instead of the regular players. Both franchises were devastated from the chaos caused from starting the season with replacement players, and the two teams combined to win nine games that year, two of which came against each other and one which was won by Pittsburgh by forfeit. Amazingly enough, just two sea...

Adam Markowitz Friday May 18, 2012 As the old saying goes, "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." Is there even a somewhat viable statement now that the Orlando Predators have blown a third lead of 20 or more points this year? The 2012 Predators, who were already the first team in the history of the AFL to blow two leads in a season of 20+ points are now the first team in the history of the AFL to blow three leads in a season of 20+ points. After holding a 47-27 advantage rig...
