On further review: Arena football cancelled for 2009

The Arena Football League has canceled its 2009 season, but will reportedly resume play in 2010.

A player for the Colorado Crush arena football team is shown here.

League officials could not be reached to comment, but have previously denied the indoor football league would cancel the 2009 season. The AFL, founded in 1987, has 16 teams after New Orleans folded in October.

The league claims it will be stronger and will be here for a long time because of the reorganization planned during the idle year of 2009.

Will the fans come back after one idle season?
