WEDNESDAY, OCT 27, 2004 - The team wrapped up the Free Agency signing period by bringing in
several former Las Vegas Outlaws players of the defunct XFL.
Players such as Rod "He Hate Me" Smart, Rickey "Snickers"
Brady, Joe Tuipala, Brett Bech, and Angel Rubio
will be returning to Las Vegas, but this time as Bandits.
Smart and Tuipala were signed after being released by San Francisco, along with former Stallions Defensive End Lemanzer
Williams. Journeyman Defensive Tackle Angel Rubio was all too
happy to sign with the team at the eleventh-hour of Free Agency.
Veteran Bech was brought in to bolster the Bandits' receiving corps.

is of no consequence to his SFL contract. The impact on the
Pacific Division was immediate, however, as the Bandits altered their
Free Agency signings to counter the new threat posed by Williams.
