Kenny, Jamie, Somebody with Mod Power, Please pin this the top. After much research, I have chosen to go with Greenfield Parks & Rec Department as the location for which to try and run the Brewerfan.net Fall League. I have umpired there a handful of times this spring/summer and the professionalism is first class. The Field location seems pretty central to the area. Konkel Park 51st and Layton. A few highlights: 1) The fields are well prepared 2) There is a fence in the outfield, in most cases eliminating the inside the park home-run. 3) The umpires are all ASA trained and sanctioned. 4) The field lighting is high above the ground. 5) The grass is well manicured, no potholes waiting to eat up our MCL, ACL, MSG and any other ligament / choloesteral abbrevations. 6) They do however use the dreaded 50 minute, 1 swing rules. A) The season is a five week, ten game season (pending rain), beginning on September 3rd or 4th, through the first week of October. B) Games can be Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday, please state your preference. C) Team fee is $180.00, which is up for discussion and the player fees are $6.00 for residents and $12.00 for non-residents of the City/Village/Whatever of Greenfield, WI. D) My deadline is August 7th, though, you know me, I'd like to have to done ASAP. I ) This is the only Brewerfan.net team that I know of, as there has not been one in the fall in the past. II ) Having both teams join to form one of team, essentially 20-24 players, is not feasible III ) Therefore, I have to try and delicately balance a first come, first serve type system while attempting to build the best team possible. IV) I would not refuse a player who could only play one night a week, but certainly discourage it if at all possible. Monologue: Yes, I'm the manager / coach. I run a tight ship. I like to win. I like to have fun. With winning comes fun. The spring/summer teams were very well positioned in terms of talent, however, if you want a spot, earn it and it's yours. (Let me clarify what I mean. If you want RF for example, but somebody else has been "grand-fathered" in on previous BF.net teams as the RF, go out and earn it and it's yours. I wont set a lineup or fielding positionings based upon the way it's always been done. Not that anything has been wrong in the past, but I wont be status quo, just to be status quo.) In every team I have ever coached, I have batted last and played catcher. I dont have a personal ego, I just want to win and will put guys in the best position to succeed given the talent. I realize this may be a turn off to some of you who don't like my style. However, I would never embarrass the Brewerfan.net brand name and am really looking forward to the season. In general, this team may seem more serious in terms of winning over fun, but to play two nights a week requires some committment to being a good ballplayer and everything else will fall into place. That said, there isn't a ballplayer on either team that I dont think meets these requirements, yet somehow we have to get from 24 players down to 12-15. Let me know your thoughts, in or out, best days for you and let's make it happen! ~~Luke
