Talk:Oceanic Football League (1983: Doomsday)

Name of article
Jnjaycpa, the name of the league when it started, as it has been up until now, is the American Football League. That is canon, and while the name of the league can change going forward, I don't like retroactively changing it as if it had always been the OFL (which seems to be what you are proposing), because I believe early on it would have served a purpose in distinguishing the sport of gridiron from its Australian rules counterpart. Now, as both leagues are established, there would be growing confusion between two different codes having the same initials for their leagues. Retroactively making it OFL is the only criticism I have, however. Oceanic Football League is a great name, and it accomplishes the purpose of distinguishing it from the australian rules AFL. I am interested in your ideas for the OFL and look forward to reading them.--64.8.46.4 02:17, December 19, 2009 (UTC)
