Baltimore Brigade Crewneck Sweatshirt

The Baltimore Brigade were a late-era entry in the now-defunct Arena Football League. The Brigade played during one the league’s darkest eras, when the once sprawling national league was reduced to a tiny cluster of survivors in the northeastern U.S. During the AFL’s final three seasons, the league owed its existence largely to the patronage of Ted Leonsis, the billionaire owner the NBA’s Washington Wizards and NHL’s Washington Capitals. Leonsis invested in the league in 2016, establishing two 2017 expansion teams – the Brigade and the Washington Valor – at a time when the AFL had just three other viable franchises.
