Abernathy to Abernathy: Adamantium Franchise Ownership Changes Hands
The Abernathy Adamantium are under new management. Instead of being sold to another owner, Blake Abernathy instead transferred ownership to his daughter, Lucy Abernathy.
The team has reported new losses, which has made continuation impossible. Citing the need to relocate to a population center, Lucy Abernathy has been in talks with Mayor Kessler of Bunker Hill about expanding the capacity of Shamrock Taphouse Stadium of the Square.
The Bunker Hill Gun Fu of the BMU are the affiliate of the Adamantium, so the relocation would be relatively uneventful with the expectation that the teams would just switch spots in the CBO and BMU leagues.
Final approvals and decisions are expected to be made during the CBO's winter meetings with all announcements coming at the start of 2305. As it stands, the Adamantium looks to be the second original franchise in two years to relocate due to population concerns on the farms of the Commonwealth.
That could lead to some of the other lower populated teams to reconsider their location should crowd sizes leading to deficits as the population starts to flow more into the Boston proper area.
