Meeting

The city appointed negotiating council met today with members of the NY-Penn League, including president Ben Hayes.

My understanding is that the Eastern League and New Britain have waived any rights to the territory, so unless someone finds a way to botch this, there should be a team in place by month's end and no later than mid Novemeber.

hope they make a decision soon. I wonder if they will enjoy listening to The Outfield as much as we did.

Joe,

Will there be a new team under my Christmas tree this year?

Sorry I have been MIA.....a lot of serious family matters to attend to.

As for what I'm hearing -- it's 50/50 right now. Things are getting VERY close to a decision having to be made.
