ARIZONA FOOTBALL LEAGUE
That's right. Siaha Burley played in the Arizona Football League AzFL in the Spring of 1996. It was his brother Nigel Burley that brought him out so they could play together. Nigel had played the year before for the Mesa Cowboys where he was the '95 stat leader in many categories including punt and kick off returns for touchdowns. He has the Bling to prove it. Siaha wore jersey number 25 and played both ways for the Wranglers. He was one of the top receivers and defensive backs for the 1996 season earning him post season honors. The logos above represent part of Siaha's journey in football. The AzFL, then to college. Next came the LA Avengers, the Rattlers and now the Utah Blaze. Scroll down for more photos of Siaha in action.

Hebrews 12:1
Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.
