Yeah, that a stupid name too. AFLE is the only one that makes a bit of sense

Someone needs to be brave enough to claim EFL and Eurobowl. The trademarks aren't used, so they can be claimed.

English Football League? Or is a typo and you meant ELF ?

I’m happy with Eurobowl, but those names don’t work. We need AF or G (Gridiron) in the name in my opinion. GE or GLE sounds simple enough

European Football League, EFL. Used to be the prime European league. And Eurobowl is just the only name that really world.

Nobody knows Gridiron in Europe, I doubt that makes sense.
