I can tell you that there have been UIFL teams that have contacted the PIFL about next season. Hopefully the PIFL was smart enough to say, "thanks but NO THANKS"!

If the PIFL were truly smart, they'd at least ask for some information as to whether the teams have the financial wherewithall to make it. Sure, the answer is probably "no," but it costs nothing to ask.
What are you doing here?

I'd think you'd be happy to see teams wise up and leave for greener pastures.

You can be rest assured that this indeed happening when UIFL teams have come calling each of the past two seasons, well sort of, when they are given the financial details for membership into the PIFL, that is generally the end of the story. Furthermore, it has not been just UIFL teams that have come calling, teams from other leagues have come calling too, same deal, if you can not meet the characteristics they are looking for, including financials, then it is game over.

Really? As long as I have been around this sport, more than a decade, one should know that you can't simply change the letters and keep the same people in charge of the league and make it right, when you say greener pastures, sure, I want every team to succeed, who would not want that, but I would also hope that teams would be smart enough to recognize that greener does not mean moving to the other side of the septic tank.

Pretty sure the Fury, Raiders, and Tarpons will try to not be in the XIFL. Also pretty sure Lakeland and Corpus Christi are trying to leave the UIFL

Haines usually tries to only have one team per season, Canton, Florida, Missouri.

I wouldn't be shocked if it's a team Coleman started
