The Alliance of American Football is only a few weeks old and already it has encountered the biggest problem that plague most startup leagues.
According to a report from The Athletic, the AAF despite a good ratings debut, was in jeopardy, as it was running low on cash with the possiblity of missing payroll.
But then Carolina Hurricanes owner Tom Dundon stepped up and made a $250 million investment in the league. With the new infusion of funds on hand, Dundon will be named the league's new chairman on Tuesday.
Dundon paid $420 million for the Hurricanes in January 2018.
