You may catch the ball, but you won't enjoy it. That's the sentiment of what Albany Empire head coach Tom Menas told us on The Drive on Friday afternoon.
Today is the day you can begin to buy Albany Empire tickets for single games for the upcoming 2021 season at the Times Union Center. Another big step forward towards normalcy as sports fans and an even bigger step closer to the Empire returning to the field with QB Tommy Grady looking to win back-to-back titles for the Capital Region.
The Albany Empire have their quarterback or should I say they have him back? Head Coach of the Empire Tom Menas joined Levack and Bahl to kick off today's show and break the news that Tommy Grady will be back under center for the reigning AFL and hopefully future NAL champion Albany Empire.
The Albany Empire is about five weeks from kicking off the 2021 season and if this weekend's additions are any sign, they'll be ready. Over the weekend the Empire signed seven total players two of which have caught the eye of the NFL. Linebacker Rickey Neal Jr. and Wide Reciever Marcel Newson who spent time training with the Vikings and Steelers respectively are part of a busy weekend where Empire head coach Tom Menas' roster has begun to take shape.
