World Football League collapses as teams fold
The World Football League ends after a troubled second season with $30 million lost and $15 million owed to creditors. Owner Chris Hemmeter cites failed market penetration and weak crowds of 13,370 as the core reasons for folding. The NFL now faces about 380 WFL free agents including Csonka Warfield and Kiick, with several teams eyeing new leagues or NFL expansions.
