Sacramento Wildfire[edit]

This article is about a National Indoor Football League team that the article claims was scheduled to begin play in 2007. There is no update in the article to indicate it ever did start play. In fact, I cannot find any news articles about the team at all through google news. A web search is turns up very little as well. This item calls them "phantom franchise". I considered redirecting to the National Indoor Football League but that articel makes no mention of them at all. Whpq (talk) 20:02, 14 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per "lazy" WP:CRYSTAL (meaning it should have been deleted years ago becaue the team never actually formed but the article managed to somehow stick around...)--Paul McDonald (talk) 02:22, 17 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Nonexistent team. Also, from the viewpoint of a Californian, the most insensitive team name I have heard of in years. Wildfires are not a laughing matter out here. --MelanieN (talk) 19:54, 17 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
