Former Nfl Player, Paul Boyette Jr., Signs with Japan’S All Mitsubishi Lions FORMER NFL PLAYER, PAUL BOYETTE JR., SIGNS WITH JAPAN’S ALL MITSUBISHI LIONS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE HOUSTON, TX – (April 15, 2020) – Former Denver Broncos and Texas Longhorns defensive tackle, Paul Boyette Jr., recently signed with the Japan X-League’s All Mitsubishi Lions, where he is set to play in the 2020 season. Boyette Jr., a native of Houston, Texas, will bring NFL caliber to Japan’s professional football league, opening the channel for other former and aspiring NFL players to play internationally. “This is a special and unique opportunity. Not only for Paul to have the chance to continue his football career and to experience a new culture, but also for the many other football players who would like additional opportunities outside the NFL, CFL and XFL.” Said Leif Rogers, CEO of Red Phoenix Entertainment. “We’re also very proud that the Houston sports scene is continuing to play a pivotal role in bridging American sports with Asia.” Japan’s X-League, founded in 1971, is Japan’s premier American football league. Boyette Jr. will be playing in the league’s top tier, where the All Mitsubishi Lions team, based in Tokyo, competes against seven other teams from across Japan. Boyette Jr.’s signing marks a significant turning point for the X-League, as it becomes an attractive and competitive option for American football players to continue their careers post- college. Boyette Jr. will look to bring his NFL and BIG-12 pedigree onto the fields of Japan and will undoubtedly experience a life-changing cultural experience in the process. “I would like to thank the entire Mitsubishi corporation for giving me this great opportunity to represent them.” Said Paul Boyette Jr. “I look forward to being a leader on the field, as well as off the field in the community. I’m excited to get to Japan and meet my teammates and peers, and most importantly the fans of Mitsubishi. Go Lions!” ### About Red Phoenix Entertainment RPE is a global sports firm, based in Houston, Texas, dedicated to connecting the American sports and entertainment industries with emerging global markets.

  • Las Vegas Cowboys – 1969
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 25, No. 4 (2003) LAS VEGAS COWBOYS – 1969 BY Ace Hendricks The Las Vegas Cowboys were a team that played in the fledgling Continental Football League. They lasted a total of two seasons, went from worst to first and nearly made the last championship game in league history. Unfortunately for the Cowboys, it was also a team that was starved for attention in a city that has a tough time with professional football. It was a club made up of young men eager to show their stuff and even though they were the best team in the division, never truly were given the opportunity to show all their goods. The 1969 version of the Cowboys were a totally different entity than the one which played in 1968. It was under new management, new coaching staff and, with the exception of eight players, a totally revamped roster. It was a team that made the biggest turnaround in the Continental Football League's brief history. The squad from 1968 had been somewhat of an "undesirable" team. Brought in to the ContFL following the folding of the Quad Cities Raiders, the team failed to win a home game, fielded few "big-time" players and produced very few fans. Thus, they ended the season at 1-9, with only a 14-6 victory over the Sacramento Capitols. 1969's version of the Las Vegas Cowboys finished the regular season at 8-4, tied with the Capitols for the Pacific Division lead. In a divisional playoff, the Cowboys pounded the Californians, 31-0.

  • Shakespeare in Cleats… the Story of Bill Fisher
    THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 27, No. 2 (2005) SHAKESPEARE IN CLEATS: THE STORY OF BILL FISHER From Minor League Vagabond to Shakespeare aficionado By Ace Hendricks Many minor league players spend their time as vagabonds, moving from team to team, league to league hoping to get that chance at the stardom and paycheck that had eluded them while playing at a lower level. You've heard stories of players like Johnny Unitas and Kurt Warner, who toil in the minor league before striking it rich. But what about those you don't hear about? The players who spend their whole careers without ever making the big time, are just in the wrong situation, missed an opportunity due to signing with this team and not that team? Spend their young adult lives just one play short of making an NFL squad? And what about those that also enjoy Romeo and Juliet? Love reading poetry? Enjoy a good Shakespeare play instead of watching the "big game" on Sunday? Bill Fisher was one such player. He played from 1969 to 1979 in the minors, playing in top minor league systems, such as the Continental Football League and the Atlantic Coast Football League. Later in his career, he played in leagues such as the Midwest Football League, High Desert Football League and the California Football League, where he finished his career. He also attended three different "major league" camps, all with different teams and different results. As a rookie in 1969, he was with the Denver Broncos, 1971 with the Houston Oilers and with British Columbia of the Canadian Football League in 1972.

Well, here you go. The national crisis is over. The annual post-Super Bowl football withdrawal, a seemingly incurable malady that impacts millions every year the second weekend in February and lasts weeks and months, is now in the past thanks to The Alliance of American Football, the creation of Charlie Ebersol, a television and film producer, and Bill Polian, a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. They have the football game plan, the business model with multiple big-money investors and a national television contract with CBS to succeed where other spring leagues have failed. The idea is not to compete with the National Football League. That’s a failed concept. The Alliance will complement the NFL and satisfy the insatiable appetite of football fans who otherwise would be suffering from a long period of depression.

The Situation Before the Radovich Decision The federal antitrust laws2 regulate the nation's business economy. These laws are our basic economic constitution. They decree that competi- tion, not combination, is the law of the land.' They prevent the economic oppression of the individual and give him protection against destructive practices engaged in by those who wield existing power in the industry.4 They form the framework of our distributive economic system and guar- antee, as far as federal power extends, every person the opportunity to engage in business and obtain his competitive worth.5 Included in their * The H AsTINs LAw JouRrAL has undertaken to provide for a discussion of the decision in Radovich v.
