there is a group kicking the idea around. possibly playing at Cal Poly.

This is a trick question, right, inside.knowledge? If you have inside knowledge you already know that the GBL/NAL is a ponzi scheme and they will sell franchises to ANYbody who will pony up the leagues up front fees. No proof of ability to operate, no background investigation, no NOTHIN'! Year after...

Players are still owed money, Conrad flew the coop. Website down, no email address.
Sigh...gotta love the GBL.

so this evening's game is cancelled because... ...they don't have enough game balls. No, I'm not kidding. they have some, but just a few. So they decide to go with worse than little league balls. Guys hit 'em and it's like hitting a rag ball. Doesn't go anywhere and flattens where they hit it. Gets ...

Maui, O.C.,...

like the Danderoo said, "If if's and but's were candy and nuts, we'd all have a merry christmas." Keep in mind these are the same guys who have screwed up their own individual leagues...and they're teaming up for a mega-league. I'm more inclined to think it will be a mega-cluster****, rath...

Big problem last season for the GBL was Maui...and the travel issue. Is the league going to pamper Maui the way they did in 2010? Not going to sit well with the Canadian teams. I can't see that Maui makes any sense at all, unless there are 3 more teams in an island division. Tucson's sitting out the...
