I see no way this ends badly.

What's the over/under on how many games they'll play before folding or having a semi-pro team take over for them?

roccitythunder.com/ do you think anyone from the old rochester team is in on this? What is the expansion fee for the AIF that teams actually want to join?

It's got to be cheaper than most of the other leagues.
The franchise fees and league dues must still be quite a bit though, since Ontario didn't want to pay their August fees earlier this month when the AIF started asking for it in advance (also factoring into that was the fact that the league didn't want to pay Ontario's travel costs to the championship game like they were contracted to do).

Looks a lot like Thor. How long before Marvel issues a cease and desist?

A football coach at various levels for 20 years, Teed has confidence in the AIF business model. The franchise fee was $20,000 and there is a per-week spending cap for each team of $3,150 so he’s hoping to avoid the financial pitfalls of the Raiders, who reportedly lost $1.7 million during their existence despite fielding winning teams and winning the 2007 Continental Indoor Football League championship. “We’ve been working on budgets, talking with sponsors. It’s definitely financially feasible,” said Teed, whose day job is in the computer industry. Another person who's failed to do due diligence on the league and hasn't learned from history. The league's affordable to his budget, but what he fails to realize is that any money he puts out is not coming back and will not be used as he thinks (it will just line Morris' pockets). He expects to make a profit and instead is going to lose money and then blame the league when his eyes get opened.
