Re: Major League Baseball Hostile Takeover Of Organized Minors
Pounder, Ah, yes, "goofy." I was thinking "quirky." I completely understand where you are coming from. Same thing. And you are exactly right. MLB cites the need for tighter geography and then breaks the rule with a goofy inclusion into a league. I guess it is whatever suits their...

Re: Major League Baseball Hostile Takeover Of Organized Minors
Great post, Pounder. In general you bring up a great point. One I overlooked. MLB is a business like many other entities. It made a strategic business decision. I should have not expected any more or less of it. As to the description of their tactics and decision, despicable was just a word I borrow...

Major League Baseball Hostile Takeover Of Organized Minors
I want to congratulate Paul Reeths for his thoughtful and very accurate editorial on Major League Baseball's forced takeover of organized minor league baseball. Paul hit the nail on the head with his commentary. It is despicable on MLB's part. To read Paul's first editorial on the subject, go to the...

Re: My apologies
Paul,
I am in. I've had trouble with my password in the past. The change in the board helped with this problem. Maybe when minor sports begin again, whenever that will be, a few posters will find their way back here.

Have not heard much from the organization since completion of the season. Read where they drew 3,400 for the game between Denver and Ohio on the last weekend of play. Read somewhere else where the league averaged 1,500 per game/match on the season. Not sure as how I would describe the season. Succes...

Yes, the Olympic variation is Sevens. PRO Rugby is the union version or code of the game with 15 a side. Another entity is trying to launch here in the US. I believe the name of it is the National Rugby Football League. I am not sure if it will get any further along or not. Despite the name, I think...
