Also, I’ll have something on the Indoor league and if Charleston is thinking about putting a team in beginning in 2011.


I cannot imagine the Battery wanting to start an indoor team. History is not on your side... NASL tried it and we know how that ended. The Battery do not own/operate an indoor venue -- no control over revenues. Plus why potentially tarnish the Battery brand by going indoors. Last, but not least -- the outdoor and indoor games are so different (completely different skills are required). The only upside I see is having players on year round contracts (outdoor/indoor season). Other than that it would likely be a big money pit. If there is any merit to this at all, I doubt it is associated with the Battery ownership -- must be a different group of owners/investors.

good news and bad news Mikey.

First the bad news - I have had the photos checked by an expert and they are not photoshopped. They are 100% legit

The good news - that is in fact not you at all. As a matter of fact photo 75 clearly shows the actual identity of the person in question - which it turns out to be Yomby William. Come to find out that he had heard so many good things about the Regiment's tailgate that he wanted to find out for himself but knew that Leigh would not allow it. So he cleverly disguised himself as MikeyRatt. Only problem was, he realized that he'd forgotten to bring an extra shirt and would have to wear his jersey; risking blowing his cover. But his disguise was so good if fooled everyone, including Mr. Ratt

A little late but congratulations to Charleston and their fans. Can't really comment on the game as I have not seen it yet. I had a previous engagement out of town and was occupied during the match. I was getting text updates from Mike though. I hope to get down yall's way sooner rather than later to see a match and meet all the diehards that, like JBG, I have been hating for the last few years. wink Sounds like everyone had a great time and that's the main thing here. Again congratulations to all and hopefully we will meet again in the final next season.
