There are two leagues, as said earlier, the Pacific Division and the Atlantic Division, each with five teams. First come, first serve. If you plan on getting a team, making logos, and never contributing to the site, please don't. I want all owners to be involved. The requirements you need to meet are:
- City chosen must have a ballpark in use by a Triple-A or Double-A team, an MLB Spring Training facility, a ballpark no longer in use by the MLB, or a known stadium that has been converted to baseball before. Outdoor ballparks MUST be in locations where it does not snow.
- We are looking for teams with names similar to that of the minor leagues, but any can be submitted for approval.
Team names, locations, stadiums, etc. can be submitted in the comments, and they will be reviewed by the executives and either be approved or denied. Approved teams will be added to the list.
Pacific Division
- Twin Cities Franchise - Minneapolis, MN - HHH Metrodome - TC
- Sacramento Solons - Sacramento, CA - Raley Field - bonehedz
- El Paso Stars - El Paso, TX - Cohen Stadium - NEP
- Loros de Monterrey - Monterrey, MX - Estadia de Beisbol Monterrey - BJBerthiaume
- Hawaii Franchise - Halawa CDP, HI - Aloha Stadium- sizemorematters
Atlantic Division
- Orlando Juicers - Orlando, FL - Champion Stadium - Mykl
- Alabama Franchise - Birmingham, AL - Regions Park - Big Mike
- New Orleans Waves - New Orleans, LA - Zephyr Field - bmac25
- San Juan Saints - San Juan, PR - Hiram Bithorn Stadium - joshhockey

Alright, go.

ReplyDeleteIs it possible to make an acception for a college stadium?
ReplyDeleteIf so I will have a logo package available
quite soon
And I've changed my name it NEP from C of Red
Your team is submitted for review and we will discuss it.
ReplyDeleteuhhh I told you I want a team in Alabama, and Im going to be a co-comish if you want so I dont know why you have that as pending, just cause Im gone for a couple days doesnt mean Im backing out. If anyone has suggestions for a team name you can fire but I will certainly not be called the Juicers :P lol.
ReplyDeleteWell you haven't seen my uniforms.
ReplyDeleteTeam name: Sacramento Solons
ReplyDeleteCity: Sacramento, California
Stadium: Raley Field (14,111)
(I picked Sacramento because the RiverCats are arguably the best team in the minor leagues-both on and off the field-plus the Solons name has history there
Baton Rouge Red Sticks: Sorry, denied. Voted down 2-1. If we let you get away with a college stadium, then we have to let everybody.
ReplyDeleteSacramento Solons: Approved.
Big Mike: Are you applying or not?
Location: Pearl, Mississippi
ReplyDeleteName: Mississippi Loggers
Stadium: Trustmark Park (5,500)
^^^lame
ReplyDeleteAlrighty then now that Baton Rouge is out of the picture I will create the
ReplyDeleteEl Paso TBA's to play out of Cohen Stadium 9725
NEP, El Paso has been submitted for review, and so has Beast Mode's.
ReplyDeleteLocation: Monterrey, Mexico
ReplyDeleteNickname: Loros de Monterrey (Monterrey Parrots) named after the maroon-fronted parrot found in the Sierra Madre Oriental mountains in Monterrey.
Colors: Maroon, lime green, red (colors of the maroon-fronted parrot)
Stadium: Estadio de Beisbol Monterrey (27,000)
^^^ Lol, I say you're in.
ReplyDeleteMississippi Loggers: Voted down. Stadium isn't what we are looking for and the name is incredibly dull. Change it up.
ReplyDeleteEl Paso Franchise: Approved!
Loros de Monterrey: Approved!
BJB, I say... You should have pinstripes, and ads on your jersey, haahha.
ReplyDeleteNo love for the Atlantic League? I mean yeah, Mykl is in it, but he's not that bad.
ReplyDeleteTC I have told you 90000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 times that Im going to have a team.
ReplyDeleteI fuckin' know this. Why don't you apply for a damn team and make it official then?
ReplyDeleteLocation: Metairie, Louisiana
ReplyDeleteName: New Orleans Demons
Stadium: Zephyr Field (10,000)
Anybody got a background check on this droozer fellow?
ReplyDeleteI'm from the CCSLC boards
ReplyDeleteYes, please tell me of your other qualifications.
ReplyDeletequalifications?
ReplyDeleteWell you see, the exec's talked it over and you aren't a proven member on the boards. 11 posts and 2 months of membership is not what we are looking for. We are gonna let the regulars have the chance to get a team first. Then if there are any left you might get a chance at a team. Plus, you don't even know the secret handshake.
ReplyDeleteThe El Paso franchise will be called the stars
ReplyDeleteI should have some uniforms by the end of the night.
Stars is okay I guess. But there's no rush on the uniforms and logos, you have pleeenty of time.
ReplyDeleteStars? What about something to do with like the rio grande, or in spanish.
ReplyDeleteMIchael on a friend's account btw
No more Spanish, we already have one team using that confusing crap.
ReplyDeleteI named them the Stars because of the Star on the Mountain it's the worlds largest luminated star at night
ReplyDeleteAlright I'll take a shot at this. How about Clearwater, FL Brighthouse field. Team name TBD.
ReplyDeleteOverruled. Stay out of Florida, trying to spread the teams out.
ReplyDeleteHow about a team in Altoona Pennsilvania, playing out of Blair County Ballpark?
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of something colonial for the name.
ReplyDeleteLame. Still.
ReplyDeleteIt snows there too.
Yeah, that won't work either, because of snow. Also, I'm looking for more well-known cities. If it weren't for the Curve, I would have never heard of Altoona, and it wasn't until now that I learned it was in Pennsylvania.
ReplyDeleteI just really like that ballpark. I understand though. Any suggestions?
ReplyDeleteLittle Rock?
ReplyDeleteDickey-Stephens Park (5,800)
Okay, here's the deal. Sizemore contacted me on Facebook and he wants a team in Hawaii. Now obviously Mike and I vote yes for Hawaii and no for Arkansas. I mean, what's better for the league, Hawaii or Arkansas? Hawaii. Soooo... Hawaii: Approved! The Pacific League is now filled.
ReplyDeletewhat the hell? Little Rock? Really?
ReplyDeletemykl btw
Yeah it sucked, but it was denied so quit yer bitchin'
ReplyDeleteLike Birmingham is much better...
ReplyDeleteWell the metropolitan area is 500k people smaller than the Birmingham-Hoover area, and doubles Little Rock's stadium size. So yeah, it is better.
ReplyDeleteUmm it is Beast, Hoover is actually a nice area, with no ghettos and its a very rich town, the stadium seats TWICE as much as Little Rocks. Its alot better.
ReplyDeleteAnyone else have any ideas for me?
ReplyDeleteHow about Richmond Virgina, Playing out of The Diamond (12,000+).
ReplyDeleteRichmond was voted down 2-0, it does snow there. How about.. Charlotte?
ReplyDeleteOk what stadium?
ReplyDeleteWhat about Columbia, SC and Capital City Stadium
ReplyDeleteCap City stadium is pretty run down. Been there before.
ReplyDeleteKevin text me, I have some ideas.
Can I put a team in Conway, South Carolina? The Coastal Carolina baseball team plays at Vrooman Field at Charles L. Watson Stadium. My other option would be in New Orleans, at Greer Field at Turchin Stadium, home of the Tulane baseball team.
ReplyDelete^^^ Too small. The conway stadium is only 2k. AA(in large markets), and AAA ball stadiums are the best.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. How about New Orleans, at Zephyr Field, home of the AAA New Orleans Zephyrs?
ReplyDeleteWell it is like on the Mississippi. The east side...
ReplyDeleteTc? I approve.
Why not use BB&T Coastal Field in Myrtle Beach?
ReplyDeleteNew Orleans approved, but goddam that is practically on top of the Mississippi.
ReplyDeleteAnd Mykl, you're not the one to be telling people what they can and can't do, after all you're only the third vote if needed.
My first option for the New Orleans franchise is the New Orleans Waves. I already have colors picked out, but the name can be changed if needed.
ReplyDeleteWell, if you saw he wanted a stadium with 2k seats in a small SC city, you would've shot it down.
ReplyDeleteYour team should be the Hurricanes bMac :D
Ya that was on my list, but I didn't want to cause any problems. Haha.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a fan of waves as a team from New Orleans.
ReplyDeleteLocation: San Juan, Puerto Rico
ReplyDeleteTeam Name: Santos de Puerto Rico (Puerto Rico Saints) or Santos de San Juan (San Juan Saints)
Stadium: Hiram Bithorn Stadium (18,000)
Yeah Mykl well me and Mike wanted a team is SC or NC. And fuck Spanish names, one is enough.
ReplyDeleteAlright now we need everyones color schemes so we don't have like three teams with the same colors.
ReplyDeleteTwin Cities Divers are black, powder blue and graphite.
New Orleans Franchise Colors: green, black, and sky blue.
ReplyDeleteIs San Juan Saints alright? Not en espanol.
ReplyDeleteMe gusta. Approved.
ReplyDeleteDude Kevin PLEASE do my idea that I told you about.
ReplyDeleteBut Green, Urnge, and Sand.
What's wrong with the Waves as the name of the New Orleans franchise?
ReplyDeleteI actually like Hurricanes better but you can have waves.
ReplyDeleteHurricanes is ok, but I wanted to use something a little more unique. Waves it is then I guess.
ReplyDeleteWell what about something swamp-y or like voodoo-y
ReplyDeleteWow... New Orleans Hurricanes... Sounds a lot like the Baton Rouge Hurricanes... my idea for my MLF team that Mykl shot down...
ReplyDeleteOkay, thanks for sharing, bye!
ReplyDeleteHawaii will be aqua, orange, and black!
ReplyDeletelmao and they'll be called the Tropics too, right?
ReplyDeleteNah, maybe the Pacifics or Islanders.
ReplyDeleteWhat about Makos?
ReplyDeleteok there's one spot left. if there isn't anyone else you know will want it can I take the team?
ReplyDeleteThe San Juan Saints shall be navy, light blue, and golden yellow. I've spent a few hours on the logos and am working on the unis right now. Its turning out pretty well.
ReplyDeleteSan Juan's logos and uniforms are almost done. I've had absolutely nothing to do the last two days so I decided to work on it.
ReplyDeletedroozer, I'm pretty sure Kevin's going to apply. But you can just in case.
ReplyDeletethanks
ReplyDeleteMemphis louisville or Charlotte whichever snows the least. or I could go with Bermuda. any suggestions?
scratch Bermuda. it doesn't have a stadium
ReplyDeleteAlright I want charlotte memphis or nashville, what do you guys think?
ReplyDeleteCharlotte! It's the farthest south. And they're building a new stadium in downtown Charlotte, so we can say you play there.
ReplyDeletewe can't say that actually.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure kevin will get the team but just in case:
ReplyDeleteMemphis Franchise
Auozone Park
also is there any chanvhe for an expansion? just wondering. that would be awesome
1.763% chance of an expansion before this season starts.
ReplyDeletewell there's still hope
ReplyDeleteOkay Kevin, I really think you should take Charlotte. And droozer, you never know, someone may not be able to keep their team and drop out.
ReplyDeleteAlright I'll do Charlotte Mykl says I should be called the aviators and that sounds ok to me.
ReplyDelete
