Also, I was wondering if anyone has heard from Bill, the Blues owner. I know he had computer problems at the start of this season, but if he's still AWOL, someone needs to take the club over. In fact, I'd volunteer for the job if Bill doesn't surface.

--Mac has decided to take a leave of absence from the CKL. Jason (Jaybird of the Iron) will be overseeing the Hard Cider in Mac's absence. Hope you are back soon Mac. The CKL wouldn't be the same without having you to compete with - even if I have come up short most of the time .Last edited by leecemark; 04-29-2011, 01:24 PM.

Ditto; hope you're back soon Mac. It's sad to read. Glad that the Hard Cider name & colors stay put.

It will sure seem strange without Mac. There were only four of us original owners left; now our number dwindles to three. Hope whatever issue he has works out well for him and he'll be back in short order.You see, you spend a good deal of your life gripping a baseball and in the end it turns out that it was the other way around all the time.
