The Alliance of American Football suspends all operations after just 8 weeks

Just two weeks from the end of their inaugural season, the Alliance of American Football has suspended its operations according to multiple reports. The league was losing money and its largest investor decided he wasn’t willing to keep it going.

Sources: The AAF will suspend all football operations today. New owner Tom Dundon will lose approximately $70 million on his investment. Dundon makes decision against wishes of league co-founders Charlie Ebersol and Bill Polian.
