Default T.O. to IFL?

I guess "all publicity is good publicity":

Cool

Many problems with this first really big one would be six figure contract its worth more than any team in the IFL, the second thing would be where is the league sal. cap it would be nothing.

And third problem is Allen was barely drawing 1000 people to games last season so Drew Pearson would pay this salary out of his reported 40 mill. he sold his cap company for some years ago, as for media attention sure first game coverage but after that what would be interesting about seeing T.O use jr high def.backs who would not have seen a receiver that big and fast in the indoor game, he would have to adjust to the field but once he did no def.back in the IFL could cover him .

I don't think it is going to happen T.O needs more than six figures to catch up on his baby payments so the NFL is his only option,he will wait and get signed for one year by some NFL team who lets face it could really use a receiver,just my 2 cents what is yours.?

He would be interested in some ownership if the money makes $ but again in a down economy no IFL team makes good sound dollar and business (you fill in the blank)

Using my 7 years of indoor football experience, I can guarantee this will not end well.

Talking

I do know a lot of IFL DBs who will want to make a name for themselves for a hit on TO.

I'm betting that if TO signs, he won't travel with the team unless there's a "pay to play" agreement with the host team. Like, a split of the revenue above and beyond avg attendance.

Just a hunch.

Q: If TO wins a lawsuit and gets his $160,000, would that be enough to send Allen over the cliff. Other teams have shut down for liabilities much less than that.

No chance. Frankel has more money than any other owner.

Then why is it sounding like Allen is cutting people right and left over $$$$? It sounds like $$$ was a determining factor in getting rid of TO. Allen has had a history of $$$ problems dating back to Arkansas.
What does Frankel do? Googling him, I got a dental clinic and a sports film maker. Both the Wichita and Nebraska owners own oil companies, so that's a pile of money right there.
