Is it dead?  I really enjoyed it.

Is this what you are talking about?

I think it is still going. See the PBA schedule

I want to like it.  Conceptually I like it. In practice, I don't really like it.  Primarily because although the teams 'represent' cities, there is no connection whatsoever. They don't have home matches.  I can't go see the Philadelphia Hitmen play a home match.  They pick some venue that is not connected with ANY of the teams and do it all in one fell swoop.  Portland Maine?  Really?

Too contrived. But I recognize it is costly to do it right.  So where does that leave us?
