Hutton's an attorney who worked on big cases involving the NFL and NCAA ... so he's been around the sports world for years.The games will be played in the summer -- a slow time for U.S.
“Our commitment is to deliver a professional sports event every week indoors, on the shoulder of the summer season when the world craves entertainment and competition,” Chairman Chris Chetty said. “We aim to produce a family-friendly, yet equally electric atmosphere for our committed fans. As Chairman, my objective will be to change the culture of professional sports ownership and it is with great confidence that I state – from the owners to the players – we will be the most racially-diverse professional sports league in the world.”
Of course, the AFL, which began in 1987, was once a thriving league that ran for over 30 seasons ... but they never recovered after running into financial troubles in the late 2000s. But, ownership of the league changed hands ... and now the league's back, and ready to play some football!, among other stars.
