RP Augusto Rivera
RP Curt Hardin
C Rob Guy
1B Elvis Lowe
RF Ken Dougherty
RF Randy Ladd
Looking for high draft picks and top prospects. Quality is preferred over quantity.
I prefer PM's to email.

General Discussion / Off Topic: Mafia
« on: January 13, 2014, 11:44:51 pm »
I'm currently a GM over in the PEBA and one of the things I've done over there is to host a few games of Mafia. Mafia is a party game that pits a small number of Mafioso who know each other against a larger number of townies who don't know who anyone is. The object of the game is to kill off the other team by voting each other out.
I'd like to get several more players if possible. The games are quite a bit more fun with more people. You don't have to have any interest in joining the PEBA to play, but you would need to sign up on the PEBA forums to do so. You can tell them I sent you for that purpose when you register.
Oh, did I mention that the game narrative will be illustrated in Lego? Check out the sign up thread and you can find some examples of the first 3 games I hosted over there and more information about what Mafia is. Playing online is a bit more intricate than real life Mafia, so check I encourage you to check it out even if your remotely curious. It's a ton of fun.

Team Press Releases / Washington Unveils Expansion Details
« on: November 26, 2013, 11:04:59 am »
AP - SEATTLE - A few months ago the AFBL expansion committee awarded one of the four expansion teams to the ownership group from the state of Washington, and since then little has been heard about the progress of the team's development. Today, the team held a press conference to announce that the team has been branded the Washington Resonance, and will play their home games in "The Boom Box" in Seattle.
The Resonance name was chosen to reflect Seattle's strong musical tradition as well as the physical phenomenon that brought about the collapse of the nearby Tacoma Narrows Bridge in 1940. Accordingly, The Boom Box will seat 44,036 fans in tribute to 440 Hz as the frequency of A major and the 36 vibrations per minute that the bridge underwent just prior to failure. The distance of the outfield fences will be at their shortest along the foul lines at 345 feet to mark 345 m/s as the speed of sound. Team officials were quick to point out that home run hitters will have to "break the sound barrier". The stadium will feature natural grass with a retractable roof.
Resonance team colors will be black, white, and purple. A rainbow colored equalizer will feature prominently in the team logo and jerseys which were also unveiled.
Minor league teams will play in Olympia (AAA), Vancouver (AA), and the Tri Cities (A). The team's Rookie League affiliate will call High Springs, Florida home. All minor league affiliate names are yet to be released while branding is still in process.
