Anunciar Retiro
Por este medio estoy anunciando mi retiro de la Liga PRAFF después de 16 años de
los cuales me han dado muchos recuerdos tanto dentro como fuera del field . Y
haber compartido con equipos como lo fueron: Aguadilla/SHARKS, Río Riedras/Blitzz
y San Juan / Trojans . Me siento orgulloso del jugador que fui fuera y dentro
del field de juego, fue un gran honor demostrar que los sueños se puden lograr
con tres simples palabras ¨ DICIPLINE, DESIRE AND DEDICATION ¨ . Y como todos me
conocen siempre jugue con ¨PASIÓN¨ , como se debe de jugar este deporte que
tanto amo . Gracias a todos mis compañeros que me ayudaron a conseguir las ¨MEDALLITAS¨
, las cual es representan el respeto de la PRAFF pero en especial entre los
jugadores que han hecho esta liga por los pasados años . Espero que la PRAFF
siga mejorando su calidad competitiva porque los apoderados y jugadores se lo
merecen y más que nada la juventud de este deporte lo necesita.
Mil gracias nuevamente, Rafael Rivera Heredia .

TO MY TROJANS, THANKS FOR A GREAT SEASON, IT WASN'T EASY BUT WE DID IT. WE DEMONTRATED WHAT A CHAMPION IS ALL ABOUT. ALTHOUGH I COULDN'T BE IN THE LAST GAME, MY SPIRIT AND MIND WAS ALWAYS THERE. A SHORTY Y HECTOR LOS FELICITO POR EL TRABAJO ESTE AÑO Y LO UNICO QUE LES PUEDO DECIR ES QUE SEGUIMOS DANDO CATEDRA DE COMO SE JUEGA AQUI!!!! EL QUE SE VA NO HACE FALTA SI LOS QUE SE QUEDAN SON LOS MEJORES.

This is David bozza. I played for the fires this current season but left early due to military orders. I wanted to inform the league that I started a group on myspace called "PRAFF playaz", so everyone can talk about what's goin down in the league. I respectfully request you inform players throughout the league about the group so the league can become closer and uprise with popularity. It needs it. Thank you. Again that's MYSPACE.COM then GROUPS, then PRAFF PLAYAZ.

Gente, somos alrededor de 500 jugadores y como es posible que nadie pueda conseguir algún contacto en la prensa para que por lo menos escriban algo sobre nuestro deporte por favor, muévanse busquen ayuda y vamos juntos a mejorar a esta liga. Durante la temporada de NFL asistí a diferentes sitios a ver los juegos tales como shannons, coaches, loggans… sitios donde los domingos van fanáticos del football a ver los juegos y preguntándole a algunos me di cuenta que la mayoría ni siquiera sabían que existía una liga de football aquí en Puerto Rico. Yo estoy más que seguro que de darle promoción al football en Puerto Rico tendríamos los parques mas llenos y de esa forma los auspiciadores estarían más interesados en aportar e invertir en nuestros equipos. Vamos a tratar de aportar algo a esta liga pues con un presidente solo y sin ayuda no nos vamos a mover nunca! AYUDEN

Subject: Former Fajardo Giant wanting to say hi!!!!
Hi, I am Michael Bailey I played for Fajardo in 99-00. I see you got a website and wanted to say hi. I really miss playing down there and miss the rivaly between Fajardo and San Juan . Puerto Rico is such a beautiful island!!!! As for me I left PR in 2000 to Norfolk Va where I played for the Virgina Pirates for a few years and retired in 2005. After 2 years of retirement I was invited to play for the Pensacola Wolfpac of the North American Football League. At 38 I am still kicking and kicking well. But I want to wish the entire league the best in you 2007 season. Oh one last thing is Rodney Bristow still playing??? He must be like 90 or something LOL!!!!! Anyway Good Luck!!!!!!!

Dear Praff
Por una amiga me enteré de la existencia de Praff. Me dijo que su hermano
juega en una liga de football aquí en Puerto Rico. Como soy un fan de la NFL
y todavía faltan unos cuantos meses para que empiece, fui a Manatí a ver un
juego de los Trojans. La verdad es que salí gratamente sorprendido con la
intensidad que se juega en esta liga, aún con el peso de ese "gear" bajo
nuestro candente sol tropical.
De ahí en adelante, fuí a todos los juegos de los Trojans que pude. También
me di cuenta que PRAFF es el secreto mejor guardado en el panorama deportivo
puertorriqueño. Nunca vi cobertura en la prensa. La liga necesita un oficial
de prensa, ya.
Otro gran fallo lo vi en el juego de playoff en que lo 57's eliminaron a los
Trojans. En mi opinión, Chad Neuman es una de las estrellas defensivas de la
liga. En ese juego, este sufrió una lesión fuerte en la pierna izquierda. La
liga sabe que el football es un juego muy físico y que la intensidad sube
exponencialmente en la post temporada. Como es posible, que este jugador
tuviera que sufrir en espera de una ambulancia. SEñORES, NO HABíA AMBULANCIA
EN STANDBY!
Esto le resta seriedad a una liga muy buena y de mucho potencial. Yo, entre
otros tuve que llamar al 9-1-1 y fui testigo de la desesperación y las
lágrimas de la familia del jugador. Esto es inaceptable.
PRAFF, vamos a hacer los ajustes pertinentes.
Gracias por su atención.

5/17/2006 SAN JUAN FIRES 4 LIFE
I want to wish the SAN JUAN FIRES good luck on thier playoff game this
weekend. It's about time SAN JUAN brings that championship back to
where it belongs. I helped bring it to SAN JUAN in 1999. I'm tired of
hearing the Blitz or Trojans are the champs again. LOL. Anyways for
all of those who remember me, los quiero mucho y me hacen mucha falta.
Saul, Sanchez, Bobby, Ramon, no se quien mas queda de los Fires del
1999 estoy con ustedes en corazon. Including the guys I knew on all
the other teams especially the old Blitz. Carmelo, Miguel, Tineo, Jose
Bueno, You guys contact me, I would like to hear from you. Good luck
to all of you. wifire30@cfl.rr.com
Hey for that 30 and over all-star game, you guys wouldn't need a
fullback/tailback would you??? LOL. Man I would love to be a part of
that. Show the young kids how its really done.

Hi, my name is Alexander Mariani
I was just browsing through the net when I found out that the Puerto Rico American Football Federation finally has a website. But my happiness was cut short when I learned that one of my former teammates was killed in an accident. I immediately went through my photos (nostalgia I think!) and found the photo attached. It is from the 1998 season (Mustangs glory days). There you’ll find me (#60) kneeling next to “Sevi” and behind #33. I will appreciate if you were so kind as to post this picture on the site so others can remember Sevillano in all his glory. Best wishes to the PRAFF family and God bless Sevillano’s soul.

I just want to see the refs do a lot better job in the game not just our game, but I heard they doing a pretty bad job in all the games the season. I'm just giving my opinion. Example a player knock down a ref trying to make a tackle and he gets called for a personal foul. One part is right the personal part.

Subject: Saludos desde FT LAuderdale
Im still shoked by the news on Ivan Sevillano. My name is David Ledee, and I had the honor to play with "Sevi" in the 2003,2004,2005 Mustangs Season. We both played defensive end on oposites sides and often we switched during the games. I curently live in ft lauderdale and still cant believe that SEVI # 57 is gone.
My deepest simpathy to all his family and friends who love him and are going to miss him deerly. May he rest in Peace. Long live the memory of our friend, Ivan Sevillano #57. Peace with you, my friends

Today is a very sad day after learning of the news that Ivan Sevillano was involved in an unfortunate accident. He lost his life due to a drunk driver. Out deepest well wishes go out to his family. From all of us, who where lucky enough to play with him on the football field and share with him off it, he will be missed.

R.J. Vathy here e-mailing you from Buffalo, New York. I was associated with the Fajardo Giants from 1994 - 2002. Very happy to see that the league is growing, even more happy that it finally has a web site. Wish I was there, I definitely would be playing. Who knows where my military career will take me, hopefully back to Puerto Rico. Go Giants!

Congratulations to Omar Gonzalez (Wolfpack team owner) for his recent addition to his family.
