Outdoor Basketball Association et al.
Also: Philadelphia Gold, New York Coyotes, Milwaukee Cheesemen, Washington Bulldogs, Richmond Devils, Orlando Hawks, Virginia Beach Admirals, Kansas City Fire, Oklahoma City Twisterz, New Hampshire Sound, Rapid City Fusion, OBA Bankruptcy of 2005, and Template:Virginia Beach Sports.

Not verifiable via Google, ditto for the individual teams. Three other articles are already on VFD: Omaha Jets, B.C. Navajo Nation, and Atlanta Torment; and Violin Stadium was already deleted. I think the whole thing's an elaborate fantasy, probably involving User:MLSfan0012, who claims to have created several of these articles (although his contribs disagree). sjorford &rarr;&bull;&larr; 12:46, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete all: Above, I thought that the OBA might have been worth noting in passing.  I've changed my mind.  It's unofficial.  It has no structure.  It has no court.  It is a mixture of any sort of game.  I.e. it's largely imaginary.  Without games played, people playing, and any write up by anyone else, what we're looking at here is hoax, perhaps vanity, but entirely unverifiable in any case.  Geogre 16:27, 21 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete all, almost all of these entries are unverifiable fantasy teams - non notable in the slightest. JamesBurns 06:19, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * Speedy Delete, I bet MLSfan0012 claims he created these articles anyway because I bet it was an attempt to turn red links blue, but it has been here for almost a month. I bet some one who created this wasn't MLSfan0012 becuase a person like who would say he would make an article anytime he creates it, so I bet it isn't all his fault he says he edited O.B.A.; I bet if he created it, it would off been there a long time ago, so it couldn't be all his fault. Some of the articles he created though helped me to increasing random sports reference. DCUnitedRock23.


 * Speedy Delete, I apologize, that I created articles for any of O.B.A. sporting teams, I was only doing it because when I was trying to look up on base average I found something benith it saying Outdoor Basketball Association. When I saw the names of teams I noticed all of them had a red link...I then knew how all other sporting leagues had an article for each team, so mainly a just wrote a stubby article about it, though I didn't put any of those detailed facts, probably it's some fantasy online thing.
