What's the story in Baltimore?

So, tell me if I've got this straight:
-- The Baltimore Blackbirds were one of the original teams signed up to play in the EIEIO Football League, but wisely jumped ship after the "Jamborflop".
-- They joined the AIFA (but weren't they only a "sorta" member of the league, not playing a full schedule? or do I have them mixed up with another team?)
-- Hired Chris Simpson as Head Coach
-- At the end of the season fired Simpson
-- A few days ago announced they were leaving the AIFA, and probably their venue, but don't know where they're going.
-- Today I see a press release that the AIFA has hired Chris Simpson as Head Coach of a yet to be named AIFA team, owned by M&M, to play in Baltimore.
