🏆🔥 TWO GAMES. TWO CHAMPIONSHIPS 🔥🏆

This Saturday, August 8th, Toledo becomes the center of Professional Advancement Football as four franchises step onto the field with one thing on their minds FINISHING THE 2026 SEASON WITH HARDWARE.

First up at 5:00 PM…

THE FIRST ANNUAL PFA LEGACY BOWL
Capital City Bandits 🆚 Great Lakes Giants

Both of these franchises fought their way through a tough 2A season, made the playoffs, reached the semifinals, and now they get one final opportunity to put a championship on their 2026 resume.

This isn’t a consolation game.

THIS IS FOR LEGACY!!!

Somebody is leaving Toledo as the FIRST Legacy Bowl Champion in PFA history!

But when that clock hits 7:30 PM… IT’S TIME FOR THE MAIN EVENT. 😤🔥

PFA 2A NATIONAL MIDWEST CHAMPIONSHIP
🐅 Glass City Tigers 🆚 Flag City Phantoms 👻

The TOP TWO TEAMS IN THE 2A DIVISION.

The Tigers have been sitting at the top of 2A all season, and now they have the opportunity to finish the job RIGHT IN TOLEDO.

But standing across from them will be a HUNGRY Flag City Phantoms franchise that is no stranger to championship football and has been knocking on the door in the PFA for YEARS… having gone to now 3 STRAIGHT Championships in ROW… but can they FINALLY get it done???

Only ONE can walk away as the:

👑 2026 PFA 2A NATIONAL MIDWEST CHAMPION!

And understand what you’re watching Saturday…

This is exactly what THE PFA is about.

🔥 Competitive football
🔥 Meaningful postseason games
🔥 Championships that have to be EARNED
🔥 Franchises building REAL résumés
🔥 And athletes getting a legitimate stage to compete

We already crowned the Detroit Ravens as our 3A National Midwest Champions.

NOW IT’S 2A’S TURN. 😈

📅 SATURDAY, AUGUST 8TH, 2026
📍 Scott High School
📍 2400 Collingwood Blvd
📍 Toledo, OH 43620

FOUR FRANCHISES. TWO TROPHIES. ONE NIGHT.

08/04/2026

🌎🔥 THE TRUTH HURTS…🔥🌎

NAME A LEAGUE, ASSOCIATION, OR ALLIANCE WITH TWO #1 FRANCHISES IN THE NATION… ILL WAIT… YOU CAN’T ITS NEVER BEEN DONE!!!

We’ve seen a lot of teams. INCLUDING this past weekend at Sunshine Bowl…

We’ve traveled.

We’ve hosted.

We’ve watched franchises from all over the country with our OWN eyes.

And after everything we’ve seen… yall can’t compete with these two franchises. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Say what you want.

Get mad.

Call it disrespect.

We call it the truth.

The Detroit Ravens have built a dynasty that MOST franchises will never experience.

The Glass City Tigers have separated themselves from the rest and continue to prove why they’re sitting at the top.

Everybody is tough on Facebook.

Everybody is a “national power” in the comment section.

The reality is simple and ACCEPTABLE…

Don’t let these fake media outlets hype you up when NONE OF THEM have seen ANY true franchises across the NATION in PERSON… BUT WE HAVE!!!

We’ve been there.

We’ve watched it.

We’ve measured it.

And we’re standing on what we’ve seen.

If that bothers you…

Oh well 😂…

The Players Football Association doesn’t crown champions with opinions.

Champions earn it. WE ARE THE HOME OF THE MOST CHAMPIONS AND RUNNER UPS UNDER ONE ROOF!

It’s a reason why our franchises reign SUPREME!!!

Big ups to the National Bowl Series Events

We DOMINATE THE WORLD!!! 🌎

08/03/2026

👏🏽🏆THE #1 FRANCHISE IN THE WORLD🏆👏🏽

While everyone else argues rankings, and crowns themselves on social media…

The Detroit Ravens just keep winning championships.

The Detroit Ravens have officially become:

🏆 2× PFA 3A National Midwest Champions
🏆 The ONLY franchise in PFA history to win the championship TWICE
🏆 The ONLY franchise in PFA history to win it BACK-TO-BACK

No one else has done it.
No one else can claim it.

Their resume continues to grow:

🏆 10× League Champions
👑 7× Outright National Champions
🏆 3× National Bowl Champions
🥇 2× PFA 3A National Midwest Champions
🔥 3× 3-Peat League Championship Runs

And let’s talk about what happened this weekend…

This wasn’t just another championship game.

This was a REAL CHAMPIONSHIP.

TWO TOP 5 FRANCHISES IN THE NATION battled for a league championship AND a regional championship on the same field. MIND YOU THE PFA HAS DONE THIS FOR CONSECUTIVE YEARS!

You can’t manufacture that.
You can’t schedule around it.
You have to earn it.

People love to talk about how many teams a league has…

We’ll take QUALITY over QUANTITY every single time.

We may not have the MOST teams… BUT WE DAMN SURE HAVE THE BEST QUALITY IN THE NATION.

That’s why the PFA continues to produce heavyweight matchups that the football world actually wants to see.

And that’s exactly why…

WE ARE THE ABSOLUTE BEST… AND WERE NOT GOING NOWHERE!

As for the Detroit Ravens…

They’re not just defending championships.

They’re defending a dynasty.

They’re not just the #1 Franchise in the Nation…

They’re STILL REIGNING SUPREME.

So here’s the real question…

If this isn’t the PFA Franchise of the Year… then who is?

Better yet…

With everything they’ve accomplished over the last 21 YEARS, are we witnessing the FRANCHISE OF THE LAST TWO DECADES?

Until someone consistently proves otherwise…

The road to every meaningful championship still runs through Detroit.

11-0 THE PERFECT SEASON!!!

🟣⚫ Congratulations to the Detroit Ravens — the ONLY 2-Time, the ONLY Back-to-Back PFA 3A National Midwest Champions, and the #1 FRANCHISE IN THE NATION… STILL REIGNING SUPREME. 👑🏆🔥

Detroit Ravens 13 🤧
Motor City Rams 6 ✊🏽

This is what a Championship should look like!!! No other league in the last 5 years outside of The PFA has hosted two top 5 Franchises in the Nation battling for the ULTIMATE TITLE within the LEAGUE and we’ve done it CONSECUTIVELY WITH MULTIPLE TEAMS!!! This game was amazing and a great atmosphere to say the least GREAT JOB Tee Sims!!! Very hard fought by both franchises and of course both left some meat on the bones… some say the Rams game it away others say the Ravens could have won by more… either way one thing is for certain there’s NO DOUBT that these two are AMAZING in their own right!!! One has to win and one has to lose and this time the Ravens grabs another Title breaking the PFA streak of having a different winner for 3A since its inception! The Rams have proven time and time again that they not only BELONG but they belong in the TOP!!! After speaking with Coach Newsom he is confident they will continue to play football and have their eyes set on the National Bowl Series Events in October!!! SO IF YOU THINK ITS SWEET THEN LINE UP!!! To the Ravens continue your legacy… continue your dominance… continue your culture… continue to WIN on the BIGGEST stages!!! You TRULY ARE THE #1 FRANCHISE IN THE WORLD!!! CONGRATULATIONS ON AN 11-0 UNDEFEATED SEASON!!!

Glass City Tigers 36 😈
Great Lakes Giants 12 👏🏽

GCT my OTHER #1 Franchise in the NATION!!! Way to put on and show up Robert Henderson!!! I enjoyed watching you guys and supporting you from the sidelines… as a matter of fact BOTH you and the Giants!!! It’s been a crazy year filled with ups and downs… but WE MADE IT!!! More importantly we did it THE RIGHT WAY… GCT you are in the CHAMPIONSHIP for the first time in 10 years!!! Let’s finish the job and push through!!! You’re now 11-1… There’s ONE MORE GAME LEFT!!! To the Giants Rudy Myles Jr.… I understand what you went through behind scenes and either way I am also proud of you guys and what you accomplished in such a short period of time!!! GUESS what the JOB IS NOT FINISHED!!! You still have the All New LEGACY BOWL to win and the winner gets an AUTO bid to NBSE in Indianapolis, IN!!! So let’s lock in and get that trophy!!! YOURE NOT DONE YET!!! Letssss goooo!!!

Flag City Phantoms 14 🙌🏽
Capital City Bandits 3 🙏🏽

FCP you’ve had an awkward year… from lack of dedication… to a forfeit loss… to losing games that you shouldn’t have even loss… BUT as they say it’s not how you START the race… but RATHER how you FINISH!!! This is your 3 trip to the CHAMPIONSHIP playing TRUE competition and traveling throughout your years with the PFA! You are an original building block of the PFA and to say that we could have done it without you would be a LIE!!! You also have one more game to go… they say 3rd times a charm… can you accomplish the task??? Can you FINALLY OVERCOME!!!??? I’m excited to see this game… BIG ups to Aaron Sanders and his Family they have been more than spectacular here in the PFA!!! To my Bandits… to Coach Mack… you have done an OUTSTANDING INCREDIBLE JOB IN JUST TWO SHORT SEASONS!!! You’ve created a culture of young men that are hungry able and willing… but more so disciplined and structured!!! Thank you for all that you have done for The PFA and YOUR peers!!! You also have another Championship to win… and no it may not be the one you were hoping for but definitely worthwhile because as I stated this will give you an AUTOMATIC BID TO THE NBSE IF YOU WIN!!! Let’s keep collecting hardware… let’s keep growing… let’s keep building!!! Love brudda!!!

The Detroit Ravens Are your 2026 PFA 3A Champions!!!🏆
#1 team in the nation🥇

The Players Football Association
The Rundown

07/23/2026

🥱🫩 LETS KEEP IT A BEAN 🫩🥱

Everybody wants to be called the #1 franchise in the nation.

Very few have done what it takes to earn it.

The Detroit Ravens didn’t build this reputation in one season.

They didn’t build it off one championship.

They didn’t build it by beating the same handful of local teams year after year.

They built it over TWO DECADES.

Against anyone.

Anywhere.

Any league.

🏆 THE RESUME
• 9× League Champions
• 7× Outright National Champions
• 3× National Bowl Champions
• 3× Tournament Champions
• 2× Bowl Champions
• 11× Conference Champions
• 2× Three-Peat League Championship Runs
• 2× Back-to-Back National Championship Runs

🔥 Win Streaks?
24 GAMES IN A ROW
35 GAMES IN A ROW
38 GAMES IN A ROW

THIRTY-EIGHT STRAIGHT WINS.

OVER 35 CHAMPIONSHIPS!!! Yall don’t even PRACTICE!!!!!!!!!!! SHUT UP!!! ALL YALL DO IS COMPLAIN AND BE BROKE!!!!!!!

The Ravens have built an entire generation of dominance.

They’ve competed against AND TRAVELED TO representatives from:

📍 Oklahoma
📍 Vermont
📍 Massachusetts
📍 New York
📍 Florida
📍 Texas
📍 Wisconsin
📍 Minnesota
📍 Illinois
📍 Indiana
📍 West Virginia
📍 Virginia
📍 Missouri
📍 Ohio
📍 Kentucky
📍 Pennsylvania
📍 Michigan

Across the MCFL.
GMFL.
GLFL.
MEFA.
PFA.

BUT GOT YOUR NERVE TO SAY THEY DON’T TRAVEL BUT YOU NEVER EVEN LEFT YOUR BACKYARD AND CAN BARELY GET YOUR ENTIRE TEAM TO A HOME GAME… IT’S PITIFUL AND A DISGRACE TO THE CULTURE!!! BUMS!!!

THATS 18 STATES!!! STOP PLAYING WITH THEM YOU CAN’T COMPETE!!! YALL HAVE NEVER BEATEN A TOP 5 LET ALONE TOP 10 FRANCHISE EVER!!! WE PLAY TOP COMP IN REGULAR SEASON WE DON’T WAIT TILL A BOWL OR NATTI!!! Don’t contact us talking about you want to play the Ravens and can they come to you… NO!!! You haven’t accomplished NOTHING FOR US TO SEND THEM YOUR WAY!!! PULL UP!!! Now if you have something worth playing and traveling for then let’s talk!!!

Here’s the uncomfortable truth…

If you’re reading this and talking about being the best…

Have you beaten the Detroit Ravens?

For MOST of you…

The answer is no.

If you’re talking dynasties…

Can your RESUME stand next to theirs?

If we’re talking championships…

Can your trophy case stand next to theirs?

If we’re talking consistency…

Can your franchise do it for 21 years instead of two?

Now they’re four quarters away from adding another championship to a resume that’s already THE MOST DECORATED this LEVEL has ever seen. It don’t matter about the season because when we offered YOU DECLINED!!!

So keep posting.

Keep arguing.

Keep chasing rankings.

The Detroit Ravens aren’t chasing anybody.

Everybody else has been chasing them.

🟣⚫ THE STANDARD.
🟣⚫ THE DYNASTY.
🟣⚫ THE FRANCHISE THE REST OF THE COUNTRY HAS BEEN TRYING TO CATCH FOR OVER 20 YEARS.

‼️😎 FIRST ROUND OF THE 2A PLAYOFFS 😎‼️

The Players Football Association is proud to present the recap for round one of the 2A playoffs! Brought to you by The Rundown , Rival Live Productions, and our National Partner Trinity Trifecta… LETS BEGIN!!!

First round of the 2A Playoffs:

Great Lakes Giants 14 😈
Lima Warriors 6 🫡

Enough cannot be said about these two franchises! Both went through immense struggles, challenges, and changes… it’s easy to speak on aspects from the outside it’s different when EVERYONE on the inside knows what’s going on… Hence why you NEVER see anyone directly in the the PFA speak on matters publicly… great season to the Lima Warriors it didn’t end the way they wanted but they are a pinnacle franchise having been around for 25 years!!! Your commissioner is extremely proud of you!!! Thank you!!! To the Giants… when you’re ready to tell YOUR story then tell it… we know you’re focused and looking towards the future… but let the world know who you are at some point… quiet the noise with the TRUTH… and let your TRUTH be the light… the Championship isn’t far off… let’s see what you guys can do with leaning on each other!!!

Capital City Bandits 20 😮‍💨
Flint Fury 6 👏🏽

Flint has been through its toughest year till date… riddled with injuries and commitment… this was a tough season for them… but a season filled with hope and determination for next season! We are excited to see what Charles Flint Fury Lawler has in store for us next year!!! Great season Chuck despite it all!!! Much love brother!!! To the Bandits… in two years you have shown your existence to be more than just a dream… you have shown grit and courage beyond your years… now in a much different and more complete league here in the PFA you have faced challenges on and off the field but have risen to the occasion each and every time!!! KEEP GOING you have a championship to win!!! Let’s see if you can get it done!!!

07/17/2026

🐏🔥 LET’S TELL THE TRUTH. 🔥🐏

Not opinions.

Not feelings.

Not social media narratives.

THE TRUTH.

The Motor City Rams are a TOP 5 FRANCHISE IN THE NATION.

And if that bothers people…

Go argue with a wall.

In just THREE YEARS, the Motor City Rams have competed against representatives from Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Texas, and Indiana, while building one of the most complete resumes in pro-advancement football. THEY HAVE NEVER NOT PLAYED COMPETITION!

📚 THE FACTS:

🏆 2023 MEFA League Runner-Ups
🏆 2023 Alliance Bowl Champions
👑 2024 NFE Tangerine Bowl National Champions
👑 2024 PFA 3A National Midwest Champions
🌎 2025 USA Bowl Top 25 National Champions
🔥 2025 PFA Playoff Semi-Finalists
🏈 2026: 10-1 and headed to the PFA 3A National Midwest Championship

✔️ Former #1 Ranked Franchise in the Nation
✔️ National Champions across multiple organizations
✔️ Multiple Top-10 and Top-5 National Rankings
✔️ Only losses are to TWO different franchises in THREE YEARS EVER!

Now let’s talk about those losses…

The Racine Raiders… a team the Rams have also beaten. A historical franchise and 2nd oldest in the NATION!

The Detroit Ravens… a team the Rams have also beaten. Another historic franchise who has amassed over 21 Championships in 21 years!

One of those franchises is arguably the best franchise in the nation, and the Motor City Rams are the ONLY team to beat them over the last FIVE YEARS… AND have beaten them in TWO consecutive YEARS!

Read that again.

The ONLY team.

So let’s stop pretending this is some mystery.

This isn’t hype.

This isn’t favoritism.

This isn’t politics.

This is a TRUTH built against proven competition.

That’s why they’re respected.

That’s why they’re feared.

That’s why they’re the BTA BOYZ.

The Motor City Rams didn’t become a TOP 5 FRANCHISE IN THE NATION because people talked about them.

They became a Top 5 franchise because they earned it.

Receipts over opinions. Every. Single. Time.
