Long Island Electric Football League (Established 1972)

Recommended Posts

Posted

As kids what did we know? We did the best we could to understand football because we played organized football. The 1978-79 Long Island EFL season had 19 teams and 4 different Conferences, two for the American Football League and two for the National Football League... We called the league the OLD AFL before we merged and invested in the league, teams, and new bottoms doing chores to make extra money to pay for them and having our parents help us.  The Denver Broncos were one of those new teams that we added to our league after they played the Dallas Cowboys in NFL Super Bowl XII in 1978 Tudor Games featured the Cowboys and the Broncos when you went to buy a new game in the store. Those Denver Broncos became one of our most powerful teams and it was the first time we transitioned to using the total team control player bases. That season they beat the Miami Dolphins 8-5, delivering the Dolphins first loss in 73 games.

We loved electric football that much.  We had Eddie, Paul, Kevin, Robby, Joey, and William. We made it work.
