Freedom's revolving door


Once again, ownership and front office woes have hit the Fort Wayne Freedom. It appears the Continental Indoor Football League is in position to push owner Todd Ellis out and take over operations of the team. I was in attendance at a meeting where CIFL officials, who declined to comment, met with the coaches and players on Wednesday at the end of the team's practice, and I wrote a story about it for Friday's edition of The News-Sentinel. The story is posted online here.

I'll be covering the Freedom game Saturday, which starts at 7 p.m. at Memorial Coliseum, for the SportSunday edition of The News-Sentinel. Look for a game story, and I'm hoping to report on new information regarding the takeover as CIFL co-owner Jeff Spitaleri suggested he might have by then.
