4th you're pressing. Athletic term for falling apart yep support the effort all you want but come on even you can't understand why the league would be making up bad weather day with a interaction live with people about just ?

If they can't play because of bad weather then what else is there to talk about, any insight to what happen in the last game should have already been covered and as far as today's action who cares, they are only making things worst off than what might have already been waiting to happen.

I don't think they will play tomorrow. They will just wait to the midweek to play those games as currently scheduled.

I wasn't opining - just reposting what they (SL) posted with a link. The SL is a curiosity and something to discuss on a AltFB board. The weather link speaks for itself.
Your assessment of my POV is way off, no big deal.

That's possible - or they could cancel all or none. We'll know soon enough.

So if you're one of the schmoes who paid $48 for this....well, here's a Facebook live chat for you.

My sense is there's a reason the third and final set of games were midweek and not next weekend, and that reason may be either someone else reserved the place for next weekend or they could not afford to put the guys up for another weekend and knew that going in.

In any case, guys who paid to play in this "league" will likely end up having played two games, spending a few weeks in West Virginia and getting "tape" shot by people who've never held video cameras before.

So, yeah. Well done there.
Old enough to remember when bashing the ABA was fun.

Good call so far.... but I'm not convinced they play the last 2. But your prediction is still alive heading into Monday.

The tight schedule this week seemed odd anyway.

Hopefully weather will allow the playing of the two postponed games this week . . .

If the last two games get played, Brian Woods will have done something he has never done before as a commissioner - complete a season as scheduled! (LOL)

I have my doubts but something tells me he figures out a way to get the games in somehow . . . don't see this concept coming back in 2018!

Thoughts?

They cancelled the games scheduled for this past weekend so can't say that unless he reschedules.

As far as 2018... who knows.
