First off how many teams in this town are going to use that name...

Second what a lame logo......at least put a wave on the thing.....

Third, Preeths, can I drop your name so I can try and get an interview the owner?
Just say the word and I'll get in touch with him and ask a few questions and post it here.

I did an interview for UFLaccess.com and posted it on the UFL thread if you want to see my style.

I can't stand the way the ABA does the west coast ball, but I'll check it out and report back and let you all know if its any beter then the WILDCATS!!

I would love to see PBL on the west coast but that's not gonna happen.

Hey Mr. Lee, are the Buzz playing in the West Coast Pro Basketball League? If so talk it up.....I'll give you props!!!!

yea ask them why they'd opt for the Amateur Basketball Association. IDK if the PBL would take them... but at least the WCBL or IBL would be a lot better.

I will, and if there are any other questions anyone wants me to ask just post them in this thread and I'll do my best to get them asked.

Coach Mason comes to the SAN DIEGO SURF as the former Assistant Coach for the San Diego Wildcats Basketball Team of the American Basketball Assoiciation from 2007 to 2009. He served as Assistant Director and Coach for the Superstar Invitational Basketball Camps in San Diego in 2007 and coached the Long Beach Team of the Summer Pro League one season.

Coach Mason retired in 2009 as a high school teacher and basketball coach in San Diego County high schools and more recently as a high school Dean of Students, with induction into Who`s Who Among America`s Teachers 2002. His impressive 31-year high school coaching career included various positions from boys’ and girls’ Assistant Basketball Coach through boys’ Head Varsity Coach. Mason also taught physical education for the Juvenile Court System and community schools.

Above statement is off the Surf web site..........

DO NOT take my gathering of info for this thread as if I'm kissing any back side.
I have not met this team our the owners. I love minor league ball and I like to support
a local team. I know all about the ABA and will not get any "PIE IN THE SKY" ideas about
this team, or any team in this league. If you don't believe me just look up my old posts about the Wildcats and how
I praised and slamed things they did.

There I said it I feel much better now.......

ANYONE who is entering this ridiculous league is either
1/ someone who opens a small business without any due diligence
2/ a dreamer
3/ an idiot
4/ trying to see if they can make a go of it in the cheapest league of all before they take the plunge and go to a "real" league.

Like all involved in Joes' league, I wish them well. The original (2001 IIRC) San Diego Wildfire actually tried to do things the right way. Sadly like many involved in the most Mariana Trench of leagues they couldn't overcome the many many many many many many shortcomings of the ABA.

Don't forget the Stingrays of the IBL that folded. I went to see one of their games at the Sports Arena and they were BAD.....

San Diego Basketball teams that have "left the building"

San Diego Clippers
San Diego Wildfire
San Diego Stingrays
San Diego Wildcats

FIRST PRE-SEASON GAME Sat. Nov. 7 with the Clayton,CA Showtime coming to San Diego 7:30pm at the Kroc Center, 73rd & University Ave.

The above statement from the web site........There is no web site for "Clayton Showtime".......will either of these teams play this game.......we shall see....I will go and get the inside info.......more to follow

One more thing this game is goning to be played at the old home of the Wildcats.........but the new Surf home is about 1 hour north of this location......so the preseason game isn't being played with in a 10 mile radius of the home arena.......and the Kroc center is in the low rent district of the County.......and the school where they will be playing their home games is a privite school in an upper middle class area.......home many people do you think will go to this game? I'll say about 100...................we shall see
