}} The Baltimore Blackbirds were an indoor football team based in Baltimore, Maryland. They played the 2007 season as an expansion member of the American Indoor Football Association, at the 1st Mariner Arena.[1][2][3] HistoryThe team was originally going to be a member of the Eastern Indoor Football League, but left for the AIFA soon after the "League Showcase/Jamboree" held inside the Mahoning Valley HitMen's "ThunderDome". The Blackbirds played a predominant road schedule (eight away games, five at home), finishing with a record of 1-12. The team suffered severe financial problems, which resulted in players and coaches not receiving paychecks from their last two games for several months. Simpson resigned as head coach on August 3, 2007, expressing doubt about the future of the team. Three days later the AIFA moved to expel the Blackbirds from the league for breach of contract resulting from the Blackbirds negotiations with other leagues. The arena lease was held by the league who opted to replace them with a new team which brought about the creation of the Baltimore Mariners.

TriviaThe first touchdown in team history was scored in the 4th quarter of the first game of the season, on the road against the Reading Express. It was a 15-yard pass from quarterback Joe Urso to wide receiver Kevin Dixon. The logo was created to resemble the Atlanta Falcons.
