Hello darkness my old friend :D

I’m back on my old account, although I have been lurking for some time now. Happy to see the old place chugging along nicely. Just wanted to formally say hello again to all of the old guard and look forward to continue to watch you guys grow!

Missed you PEBA!

Hi Mike!

I saw you lurking earlier and was thinking about how the Hitmen were, IMO, one of the best team names ever. Hope all is well for you!

It was a great name and logo!

Admittedly before the 2024 season when I left I was looking to rename and relocate the team :lol:

Hi Mike! In my studies of Duluth history, it seems New Jersey was a constant trading partner. It's cool to see the steward of the Hitmen around!

Mike! Good to see you! How are things in Chicago? Maybe next season, we can arrange another PEBA meetup like we did back in 2012. :D

Meanwhile, don't be a stranger! We've got the new season coming up and Frank's Mafia! game going, so plenty happening around these parts. Jump right in!

Bill and I were very comfortable with each other’s styles and were happy to make trade proposals work. Duluth was always a fun team to follow after some pieces went their way ;-D

Chicago is good! Moved two times, got married, changed jobs a couple times. Lots can happen in 3 years! Just continuing to get caught up on the league history in the mean time. Happy to do another Chicago event, or elsewhere as well! I always still wanted to visit Jason and get to a Boston game, but it has been awhile since I last spoke to him.

Welcome back, Mike!

I wonder, could this foreshadow the return of the Hitmen to PEBA?

John and Mike, I am always up for a game in Chicago with you guys again, that was a blast. I just went last night ;-).

Mike glad to hear all is well. Sorry you got married (j/k).

Not really a newbie as I had a stint in Yuma about 10 years or so ago, then about seven years or so it was the Hyakujuu Shinkansen who I was in charge of. Since then I took early retirement, bought the farm literally, well a small holding. Oh there's someone else coming back with me Karaoke King™
