PrintCommissioner Huyghue also announced that the Tuskers' game against the Las Vegas Locomotives on October 30th will be played at Tropicana Field, home of the Rays, and that the Rays have reached an agreement in principle to acquire an interest in the UFL's Florida franchise.
Now football journalists across America can hate on Upton as well, not just douche bag local writers! Share the love.

Do we get money from this?
If so, good.
I didn't say I wasn't flawless, but I damn sho' don't tarnish!
Reading up a bit...
The league doesn’t plan to be profitable until year three, so this is more of a long term investment.
Representin' the West Side of Mulberry!
It's probably not for the investment
As much as for the stadium use deal. Usually the value from this type of venture is derived from the contracts, not from the venture itself.

A wild boar. Apparently they exist in some numbers in the Everglades.
Remember, during spring training, the problem the Rays were having in Port Charlotte as well?
Yeah, I can't tell how many times I have referred to boars as tuskers. What am I Australian?
I guess you can’t name a team the Boars. I can see the headline right now, “Boar-ing.”
Plus I hear that’s what Bobby Ramos feasted on during spring training.
Good hearing from you buddy!
