Niagara Falls Post Season PR

As expected, Year One was a shit show.  57-105 was good for 47 games behind Plymouth, who were abandoned by ownership to pursue other interests in Boston.  Speaking of being abandoned, Niagara Falls has seen something this week that they hadn't seen all year...  Vehicles in their parking lot.  However, it wasn't fans cars, it was moving trucks.  After their obligatory one year in Niagara Falls, the Frenzy are moving to a spot that GM Robert Perinka feels more at home...Philadelphia, PA.  Being rebranded as the Philadelphia Athletics, partly because Shibe Park was not being used except for a weekend farmer's market, and partly because Perinka managed a somewhat successful franchise in these parts roughly 100 league years ago.  The stadium will match the most recent Shibe Park dimensions and the ability to find fans that can get a fine authentic Philly Cheesesteak at a game tend to be more in abundance than the occasional honeymooner that wanted to catch a game in Niagara Falls, NY.

So far this offseason, the team won all but one arbitration case,  but more of that in the upcoming preview PR.  So far, we hired a top dollar scout Bill Myers to help with this from the ground up rebuild.  Pretty much nobody on the team last year will be back unless they accepted the $12M qualifying offer.  Hopefully none accepted.
