2012 AFL Schedule released

The AFL released the 2012 schedule Friday night.  Your Pittsburgh Power will be the NFL Network Game of the Week four times. 

The Power will be involved in the AFL opening game for the second year in the row, this time on the road against the Orlando Predators, a playoff team from last year. 

The Power will also be featured in a week three home game against the division rival Philadelphia Soul.  Week 14 will also see the Power travel to Cleveland to take on another division rival.

The fourth featured game will be the final game of the regular season when the defending Arena Bowl champion Jacksonville Sharks come north to Pittsburgh.

Other games of note include June 3rd on the road against Arena Bowl runner up Arizona, along with home and home division series against Milwaukee, Cleveland and Philadelphia.

Overall, the Power will play 8 of their 18 games against playoff teams from last year (Cleveland twice , Orlando twice, Georgia twice, Jacksonville & Arizona), which should provide lots of exciting entertainment for Power fans this year. 

This schedule will really offer the Power a lot of exposure in the AFL this year, which could be key to attracting big time talent to play in the Steel City.  I like the fact they will be taking on two tough teams right off the bat.  Win early and set the tone for the season.  

It's going to be a fun season Power fans, so make sure to get your season tickets if you haven't already.  We need to get the Consol Energy Center rocking again this year!
