GBL Future?
Now the GBL has real trouble without Victoria...this may cause real trouble in Canada. No one on either team has been conatacvted about their contracts or 2011 Sp Tr...very unusual and not a good sign. Edmonton was close to deciding on cutting loose, so this may be the straw...as for Calgary, they have to either find a new league fast, or call it quits also.
Now the GBL has very few ways to exist:
Yuma, never happen now...maybe Pecos League
Toros...gone
St G...gone
Seals...gone
Mexico...gone
Maui...gone
Slightly hanging on by a thread:
OC...in Maui, who will they play now? Are they flying to mainland to play 3 teams?? Ha!
Chico, possible
Calgary...possible, but doubt it
Edmonton...possible, but doubt it
As we all can see, the GBL is done or they can try to sell the teams to another league. But, who would want a poorly managed GBL team to merge with their already troubled leagues? Also, if the other 3 teams (except OC) stay, do you really think they will pay $20,000 in expenses to play in Maui? NO, NO, NO! Bad move OC..And, if the few remaining teams did merge, the GBL mgmt wouldn't be involved in the new league and then no payday for them...too bad.
Any other ideas out there?
SAD, SAD, SAD but it isn't a surprise.
