As it turns out, if you're considering joining, you've picked a good time. The winningest franchise in history -- the Hartford Harpooners -- have put out an APB looking for an owner to take over the club, as the original owner is a coach and won't be back in the league until the spring.

New owners who have never played in FOOL get a $20 million one-time signing bonus, which allows them to shed bad contracts from the previous regime and is active during this first season.
Here's the waiting list.
