Alliance of American Football suspends operations

Less than two months after their eight franchises took the field, the league that had been filling the football gap for some of us is gone before the end of their first season.

Earlier today, the Alliance of American Football made the announcement that they were ceasing operations with just two games remaining in the regular season and with less than a month before they were supposed to crown their first ever champion.

AAF Chairman Tom Dundon made the decision that the league could not continue on without some sort of partnership or affiliation with the National Football League.
