Non-sourced non-notable team, no indication of whether or not it actually exists; appears to be possible hoax Mhking (talk) 21:17, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: appears to be an elaborate hoax. No mention of this team, its competitors, their players, or the parks they supposedly play in anywhere except on their leaguelineup website, which anybody can create.  A historic maximum crowd of 17, but they have operated professionally for six years, have player contracts, managers and a Hall of Fame?  An all-star game for a league that consists of four teams and seems to have a couple dozen players total?  Unlikely.  Certainly not notable, even if it is real.
