No one can tell me if there are internet/radio broadcasts of any of the teams?

Good points in the above posts. Funny as **** about "what you call your cat"...and of course, best spending money TRYING to get your brand out. I like Senators. Still think the UFL is about 3-5 years away from having 10k season tickets in each of their 6-8 cities. I commend them for sticki...

First off, in all the press I've read over this story, consistently Texas press dubs it "Montgomery County" as if people outside yer lone star mistake are going to know where that is. Suburban Houston? Is that what I understand? And, am I wrong or am I reading that two ballparks are being ...

You've got the spark burning, but misplaced a bit. There's absolutely no way an MLB team shares their spring training home with an indy team in the summer. The AZL Rookie League and general rehab games for A-MLB teams is based at the AZ spring training locales. The GBL I believe started with franchi...

I would agree...I don't see the Southwestern League being a serious, national league in 2011. The ownerships that want to start this league need to instead hitch their wagons to the Continental League and develop that. I do believe Bisbee has a great ballpark and perhaps Douglas, I'm not so sure. Bu...

Thus...as a indy league baseball guy by nature...I envision a third tier league in America as having collegiate players from 22-28 years old, still hanging on, as the baseball players do. 30 NBA teams, 14 NBDL teams, and then the "hypothetical" 30 or so indy 3rd tier teams....that's not to...

The ABA is an absolute joke. Independent baseball and hockey continues to sparkle past the success rate of independent basketball. I believe there is too much collegiate basketball occuring during the perspective indy league basketball season. Rural communities will gravitate to the solidified, guar...

The AWL was the first, and is really the only off-season indy development league ever operated. I see some solid GBL names on the rosters. There's a lot of bad-mouthing hearsay in baseball circles about the league, but that's only because 80% of the guys don't get signed and chalk it up to the leagu...

Bottom-line: Tijuana really needs to step up to the plate and honor the schedule. If the schedule is blown wide open with another set of open dates from another closing...it'll be the GBL Office's fault just as much as Tijuana's for trying to make this work. As you can tell, I'm a pessimist on this ...

As a general statement, I think any independent baseball ownership would welcome the discussion about investment into their franchise. Local businesses deciding to work with the baseball teams at below market rates is the secret ingredient. Think: bus companies, vendors/concessionaires, printing ser...
