Albany empire

Less than two months after Antonio Brown was announced as a member of the Albany Empire ownership group, the former NFL wideout teased a possible comeback.

On Saturday, it was reported that Antonio Brown was claiming "100 percent" ownership of the Albany Empire, the arena football team that plays at the MVP Arena. At the time, then-Empire co-owner Mike Kwarta disagreed with Brown's assessment of "who owns what."

On Saturday, former NFL star Antonio Brown claimed that he was now the sole owner of the Albany Empire of the National Arena League. His co-owners disagreed with Brown's claim. The Empire opened their season on Sunday afternoon at the MVP Arena with a 70-33 crushing of the Orlando Predators, despite the ownership confusion.

Weeks after Antonio Brown announced he was joining the ownership group of the Albany Empire, he's now set to become a part of the Capital Region community.

Antonio Brown, Super Bowl champion and son of Albany football legend Eddie Brown, is joining the 'family business' and joining the new Empire ownership group.

Titles. Pro stars. Memorable moments. Albany has a rich sports history, so I took to Facebook, and asked you: what is the most iconic moment in Albany sports history?

Sports fans in the Capital Region have been lucky enough to see a few championships over the years. Do you remember these ten stories of teams winning titles?

Touchdown Eddie Brown ruled Albany, New York football through the 1990's, but on this night in 2018, he and his son, Antonio Brown, ruled it together.

There were close to 5,000 fans at the MVP Arena and you can see how passionate the fans are for Arena Football. Some things never change.

Maybe a Sunday 2pm kickoff will get things turned around for the Albany Empire. The Empire needs to stop the bleeding and beat Columbus at the MVP Arena.
