One thing I have noticed is that the RPFL never seems to answer any questions. They don't delete them or anything, they just leave them their without answering them. It could just be that whoever's in charge of their facebook isn't always online like the USFL and A11FL is, but it is still pretty annoying and alarming. I have asked three questions, two a few weeks back, and one three hours ago and none have been answered. That's not a good sign. Thoughts?

Fans are not likely the number one focus of this league. It is more of a player development league. Still hopefully they realize a few of us may be interested.

I don't know what to think at all
each team has a $350,000 player salary and that is if they do not pay their practice squad.
Not a knock on Mr. Hines, but he was an undrafted rookie last year, so that $350,000 is probably his pay check.
Where is one man getting the cash to run this entire league as he owns every team.
Also, the logos that look they were from 1920 doesn't tell me they paid any money for those (no offense to the person who did them)

According to an article on Ohio.com, the league has a payroll of $80,000 per team, and have $70,000 on hand from tryout fees. Their facebook reads up to $7,000. I guess I just assumed all 50 players got this pay...

"Players will make $250 a game with incentives that could push salaries to $7,000 a year. The league has budgeted $80,000 payrolls for each team. People who try out are expected to pay a $145 fee to show their skills with a chance of being drafted April 26."
5 games = $1,250
Those are some huge incentives to push salary to $7,000
