Oh he gets lot sof teasing, no worries there.

Personally, I'd really like to see a lot of the old-timers like devaneyfan and asamford come out for this league and with how many teams there are available I think there's a good chance of that happening. Those were some good times.

I think both of them are at the Canadian Baseball League and the OTBL respectively.

Good to see your interested. Should be a good one for sure.

Just sent my app in for one of the Independence League teams.

I sent in an app. Hopefully I can get in, looking forward to it.

Cooley grumpy?? Nah...just don't knock on Tennessee and he'll be just fine.

Don't be. I'm sure there were plenty of people who had the same questions you raised. As someone in all three of their leagues, trust me they are all top notch commissioners. And they chat with each other like school girls so there's no need to worry about a lack of communication

Cooley has posted the owner directories. Other than the commishes he hasn't listed the owners yet, but I can't wait. I'm chomping at the bit to get this rolling. I think I'll shoot a few old buddies a PM letting them know about the league.

[Cooleyvol]

First wave of clubs to be filled/announced around noon cst today...................a FEW old buddies? Get the word out to more than a few.

I expect a second wave of applications starting either tonight or tomorrow as some folks arent online during the weekend.

[Treches]

Nice logo.

[Cooleyvol]

The first wave of coach hirings is complete and the Owners Page is updated.

I'll be sending out emails to the 50 new coaches later this afternoon.

Woot! I got my team (the Hollywood Stars) and my league (the PCL) only has 3 (out of 12 total) open teams left. The other two teams I listed (the Angels and Beavers) are already gone. Come get your team. They're going fast!

I see Jesse Berry, Bruce Muench, Erich Ingram, and Stacy Bond are all already in. Good to see you guys. Heck, I see even the ghost of Ted Williams has decided to jump in. Let's fill this baby up and get going.

[kq76]

Emailed a few guys.

Where is the OTBL located these days? The link I have is too old.

I wish you guys had announced this about 2 months ago. As it is now, I'm all full up on leagues. I know Cooley and Mike Dills as terrific commissioners though, and it sounds like you're assembling a top-notch ownership. Best of luck with the venture, though I'm sure it'll be fantastic.

[kq76]

Aww, that's too bad Jeff. I saw your name and thought, awesome, Jeff's joining! I see you are pretty full at the moment. Maybe later.

Yea...you're welcome any time Jeff. Hope you can get some time soon.

I jumped the gun a lil bit and made a Homestead Grays sig.

No worries I am the Homestead Grays in Baseball Maelstrom, so it will get some use. I'll have to come up with another one for the Kansas City Blues. Glad to be a part of the league.

[Recte44]

I might have to consider this.

I found it finally after going through my very old history files. I'll see if I can try it again but its' like a needle in a haystack (outside of the league announcement thread I did I haven't' been there since what.....late May?)

[kq76]

Cooley has been updating the owner directories and I see the league now has 55 people signed up. There are only 29 spots left and I imagine there are number of applications they haven't gotten to yet. Anyway, it might sound like there are still a lot of spots open, but with how fast this has filled up so far, I wouldn't be so sure. Besides, get in now and you can still get your pick of some of the cooler teams left. Oh, and CC let me know the reports are up so you might want to take a look at them. See the owners page for the available teams.

[John C]

Bear in mind that the reports are not finalized. There will be some changes, mainly to the names. The rosters will be very similiar, though.

[RBLwebguy]

What the heck, sent one in
