So when he's on the field it's just you and me in the stands cheering  )

Have you ever heard the sound of a large group of birds-of-prey bearing down on you, ready to turn you into lunch? If the answer to that question is no, chances are you've never been to a Hawks game.
The tradition is long-standing, and infamous. Whenever the QB draws back his throwing arm, the crowd starts to growl. As he brings the ball forward, the noise multiplies rapidly. As soon as he lets go of the ball, the Death Screech, as it is fondly and hatingly (?) called, begins. As the football spirals through the air, the stadium overflows with a cacophony of screeching and screaming. Several players have reporting the need to look up at the sky to verify that they are not, in fact, being attacked by a fleet of hawks. Many visiting fans need to cower in fear of the impending attack. As the ball reaches the receivers' hands, the sound climaxes. An ear-shattering noise echoes from the stands.
Many players get distracted by this. A Front Office worker for the Hawks says how he notices the difference in coverage between the home field and the away games. "It has to be because of the Screech." The Hawks' players, however, love the spirit and energy it adds to the game.

Arizona has the greatest fans but also has the hottest female fans in the league. Being close to Arizona State University and U of A which are both known to have the hottest college women on the planet, coming to a home game has been know to give men over the age of 40 heart attacks. Reason being is we have a section in the stands called "The Arizona Hotties" where it's all college women between the age of 18-24 and there is a mandatory dress code of spandex shorts and halter tops with no bra. We give away free tickets to these women, all they have to do is dress the part. It's a section of about 50 seats and needless to say we have jacked up the ticket prices in the sections surrounding these seats. Not only does it make us money, it makes people come out to the games and gets us a ton of air time on national TV across the nation. It also combines two of the greatest things in America, Football and hot women. When you come to an Arizona Outlaws game you know you're going to get to see some great football and some great pieces of ass. We feel this gives us the best fanbase in the league an the Arizona Hotties Section is something that makes us the best place to play in the NSFL.

Pre-game rituals in Baltimore are no joke. There is one fan section, Section 11, called the Hawk’s Nest, which is in and above the rest of the stadium. Besides the fact that this section travels to both home and away games, they have one crazy tradition that sits out above the rest. Before every home game, the Hawk’s Nest get a live pig and slaughter, and grill it in the parking lot. A lot of people thought this was unsanitary, but don’t worry folks! There is a portable clean room, and one of the fans is a trained butcher. Some people think this is inhumane, but the section believes it will bring fear to their opponents.

During the game, some people would describe this fan section as “hooligans” like you get from soccer games. Every opposing quarterback deals with the slurs and chants from the section, and they do not get off the pedal. One great chant that has been heard before “He Cheats, He Dives, He Hates the Jackson 5, Chris Orosz, Chris Orosz.”

A lot of the chants, remarkably, don’t make a lot of sense, but that’s what happens when you sell a lot alcohol to the fans because the team is having a down year. Hopefully these chants and traditions continue to thrive in Baltimore, because for the moment, the team hasn’t been.

Anyone who's familiar with the team out in San Jose will remember Sammy the SaberCat. While it was reported initially that Sammy wasn't one for fan interaction despite the bond he'd formed with the players, throughout the season he's grown accustomed to the roar of the crowd and has come to relish the opportunity to get everybody stirred up.

When Sammy feels like the guys on the field need a lift, he'll take off in a full-pace sprint around the grounds and the fans will join in with a Mexican wave that attempts to catch the team mascot. The wave spreads through every row and seat of the stadium until the whole crowd -- even the opposition fans -- is in an uproar, and the players can't help but get pumped up.

With the season coming to an end for San Jose, who finished last in their conference despite an emphatic 31 – 3 victory in the final week, Sammy is scheduled for a trip home to Africa to take some time off while the players he’s come to adore – and who have come to adore him – do the same. He’ll be hoping that next season his interactions with the fans help get the SaberCats into the playoffs.

Have you ever seen the beautiful women at Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona? Because they are absolutely stunning women. Now envision those, grown up as cougars, now you might just be envisioning what heaven looks like.

A tradition unknown to many of those outside of the state of Arizona is that it is a state law for women to show up to football games in bikinis due to the heat. Does that bring some weird looks to the game? Yea, no doubt. There are definitely some women that the players would prefer not wear bikinis, but at the end of the day, the pros outweigh the cons. Especially with the large number of tan, young, athletic women in the state. The new league is attracting a young fanbase, so there are a lot of beautiful people showing up to the games for the Outlaws. Jaylon Lee had the following to say about it.

"How could you not like it? It's literally a bunch of attractive women showing up and yelling your name while you're playing the game you love. I absolutely love this state and that is one of the reasons why. We have the absolute best laws in the country. All Free Agents should come here."

Yeti Nation, yeti nation
The NSFL genesis generation
Yeah, here come the Yeti
Gonna catch that Ultimus confetti
But for now we're coming home
'Cause the wraiths are only victim number one on our road to the throne

Seemingly semi-prepared for their victory Wednesday night, several Yeti players broke out into a cheesy, albeit catchy, song during their post-game presser. The media and fellow teammates alike seemed to find it quite entertaining. Quarterback Logan Noble and Wide Receiver DJ Law lead the red and black chorus in the chant that's sure to be a fan favorite in the days leading up to the conference championship.
We have to say, it's always refreshing to see things like this among teammates. Perhaps this is less of a happy story for the Yellowknife Wraiths, however, who are headed to Colorado already to game plan for Friday night, but it's not the ending yet.
Whether the words will hold water or not, we'll have to wait until Friday to see, but for now, with home field advantage a lock, and morale apparently not quite in short supply, things seem to be headed uphill for the Yeti - a nice, snowy, familiar hill at that.

There's something to be said about the Baltimore region's pre-game ritual for the Baltimore Hawks. Before each and every game, there is clearly a stench coming from the city of Baltimore, and it's not the best smell.

If the team was named the Baltimore Chickens, then the city would smell fantastic, but unfortunately it's not. Instead, the city smells like dead bird, or more specifically, Hawk. Before every game, the Hawk population in the United States of America decreases by a good amount. In fact, the city is very much against this ritual, for the dangers of extinction of the hawk species.

Baltimore residents, or any fan for that matter, partake in an event where they try to kill a hawk by any means necessary. This can be a difficult task, unless you have access to some kind of black market bird showcase. In any case, Baltimore fans murder hawks as a sacrifice to the NSFL Gods, in order to better the team's chances of victory. Obviously, this doesn't always work out, as you might have seen from the result of this season for the Hawks.

How many hawks are there that fans can even find that many? Who's to say, really? Maybe some people sacrifice another bird, like a turkey or chicken, because who the fuck wants to break the law and kill hawks for a football team? I guess fans can be crazy, so there's your answer.

One of the best stories of the season was the QB controversy in Orange County. When the Otters visited Arizona, the Outlaw fans had no trouble adding to the Otters' misery. Even the young fans got in on the fun:
