Non-notable organization/sports team. Also violates WP:OR (original research) and does not provide any reliable sources other than the organization's website. Potential self-promotion/advertising comes in as well. Paul McDonald (talk) 17:56, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep You can't delete all semi pro football pages. They need to stay because they are important to the sport of football and the world of semi pro. Like i said before, this is a witch hunt.
- Response I'm sorry you think this is a "witch hunt" but it's not. As you are aware, we have set up a general discussion on semi-pro football at the American Football project work area. I realize that the topic is one of great importance to you but that does not qualify it for a place in this encyclopedia. If the pages were important to the sport of football, then there would be articles written about the subject in newspapers, on TV, in books, etc. But so far, there have been very, very few produced in reliable independent sources. Among other things, Wikipedia is not a free webhosting server.--Paul McDonald (talk) 18:19, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - another article on a league of questionable notibility. Does not have significant coverage in independent third-party publications (no references in the article at all, currently), and therefore does not meet the general notability guidelines.

- Comment This source shows the league to clearly be "amateur" in nature.--Paul McDonald (talk) 14:04, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Lacks sources. -DJSasso (talk) 14:09, 17 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
