If you tune in for the Alliance of American Football starting this February, you’ll be able to get reacquainted with quite a few former Philadelphia Eagles.

Ladies and gentlemen, it’s real. Those of you looking to quench your thirst for football are in luck. The Alliance of American Football is real, and it kicks off this weekend. The inaugural season  features eight teams. There are familiar faces coaching those squads. There are quite a few former Philadelphia Eagles on those eight rosters.

That alone could whet your appetite if you’re a fan of ‘The Birds’ and looking for a reason to watch.

Think about something for a second. The AAF is ready for launch. The XFL is just about ready for a relaunch, and the mighty NFL isn’t going anywhere.

Football fanatics should be busy all season, and though the NFL Scouting Combine, the free agency period and the NFL Draft are all approaching, ‘The Alliance’ should keep us busy with football that counts.

You know a ton of the players already. As mentioned, you should know a few of them very well if you’re an Eagles fan. Say hello to 17 few familiar faces.
