NEW LOOK, SAME GREAT LEAGUE After several months of inactivity, the BBBL is back. When former League Commissioner Chad Gregorini resigned, many wondered if the promising league would ever again see life. That is until Texas Rangers owner Michael Johnson, a veteran of many FPS Baseball Pro simulation leagues, stepped up for the challenge. “I look forward to the task,” Johnson stated in a press release. “I hope to continue what Chad started. Thankfully he will remain as a part of the league as owner of the Pirates and as my assistant in the front office position.” The league will continue the 2003 season without skipping a beat, picking up on May 5th where the league left off not quite so long ago. Lineup submission deadlines and sim dates have not yet been determined, as it is anticipated that some previous owners may not return. Commissioner Johnson also announced that he is taking applications from league members to refill the open League Officer positions, a couple of which are new. |
