Mileti May Back Browns With New Pro Grid Loop

World Football League founder Gary L. Davidson announced a new pro league planned to begin in 1974 with 12 to 15 teams and potential franchises in New York Los Angeles Toronto Boston Mexico City Chicago Cleveland Milwaukee Detroit and Honolulu. He said the league would draft from college and sign free agents, aiming to offer higher pay to attract NFL players and avoid direct NFL/CFL competition initially. Strong backers include Robert Schmerz Nick Mileti and John Bassett Jr. who also own multiple sports franchises. The operation could draw teams from Europe or Asia in its first year due to travel considerations.
