There is hope that this idea will attract teams from Florida. It may be a case of too little too late but that remains to be seen. I'm sure not holding my breath.

For those of you who are following the career of our old friend Matt Murton, I thought I'd post this nice article from the Arizona Daily Star. I'm pulling for him to do well for them.

OT- Suggested Travel Route If Coming To Tucson From Phx.

Due to widening construction of I-10 as you approach downtown Tucson and the normal offramps to Hi Corbett (Broadway or 22nd St.), I suggest you get off at Prince Rd. All offramps after Prince Rd. are closed.

When you exit Prince Rd. turn left (East) and go approximately 4 to 5 miles to Country Club Rd. Turn right (South) and go approx. 3 to 4 miles to Broadway. Turn left (East) and the first light is Randolf Way. You can turn right on Randolf Way to Hi Corbett and try to park in the lot or instead of turning right look to your left and you will see El Con Mall. You can park at the mall and walk to Hi Corbett (It's about a 1/2 mile walk). If you do not want to walk, you can park in the northeast corner of the mall and a bus (for free) will take you to the park and will bring you back at the end of the game.  

Hope to see you at the game. I will be wearing my Bleed Cubbie Blue shirt.
