They were owned by Allen J. Schwalb, Joanne Faruggia and former National Football League and United States Football League quarterback Cliff Stoudt.

The Rage were founded as an expansion team on October 10, 1991, by motion picture financier Allen J. Schwalb, who backed some of the biggest blockbusters of the 1980s including Rambo, Rain Man, Moonstruck and Thelma & Louise.

The team made the playoffs in 1993 and 1994, losing both times to the Arizona Rattlers in the first round.

They are best known for signing former Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Joe DeLamielleure, who played only a handful of games in 1992 before retiring from football for good.

Their logo consisted of an enraged bull which was both snorting fire and surrounded by it.
