AFL Commissioner Baker Resigns
This from the Arena Football League’s official website:
Arena Football League commissioner David Baker resigned Friday, two days before the ArenaBowl championship game.
Baker ended his 12 years on the job by telling the league’s board of directors that he was stepping down. The 55-year-old Baker, who received a contract extension last year, simply told the board he felt it was “time.”
Under Baker’s leadership, the AFL has become a profitable league, including part ownership by ESPN. Its attendance, TV ratings and merchandise sales all have increased this year.
