The news of the day in the sports world, which has been confirmed by multiple sources, is that a secret private investor group named "Long Live the Stephensville Bears" is quickly trying to raise several millions of dollars and are planning on presenting and petitioning "Our League" top officials into forcing the current ownership of the Vlora White Stallions, into selling the team, so the new group can buy and relocate them back to Stephensville, where they have a very strong fan base, and a very rich history.


Once word got out of this news, thousands of loyal Bear fans began flooding Stephensville's main thoroughfare, chanting "Go Bears Go!" & "Bring Back Our Bears!"


At the local Stephensville "watering hole" named "The Honey Bears", hopeful fans were going so far as to sign up for season tickets. Many of these fans have also already donated money to the "Bring Our Bears Back!" "Fund Me" drive, which appeared to be gaining momentum, at the time of the publication of this article.



Back in the day, the Stephensville Bears were a very popular and exciting team to watch. The local fan base well supported their local team and the team was a huge draw, providing well received revenue, to the local community.


It was not uncommon for Bear Home games to be sold out, as the tickets became "hotter than a firecracker on fourth of July", when another rival OL team came in town.


One of the most popular traditions at Home Bear games was whenever a visiting team's pitcher was relieved after a rough outing, the fans would chant and jeer "Feed Him To The Bears!"


It wasn't long before local bear activists started protesting that local bears were highly offended by these actions.


Yogi, the senior bear from Jellystone Park was quoted as saying that "a Bear is a Bear", and then proceeded in asking if there were any unattended picnic baskets around.


An official who is close to the internal deliberations and spoke on condition of anonymity, because they are not authorized to publicly speak, stated that if the team relocated back to Stephensville, one of the conditions would more than likely be for them to ban the "Feed Him To The Bears!" chant.


Stay tuned for more breaking sports news!
