I think it is because Israel is a wonderful place but rushed attitude of the people on highways and in other aspects of life sometimes still gets to me. I can sense a little bit of something good new in Israel with this league beyond the baseball. I am truly grateful that this league has started and I care about it greatly beyond just being an Express Fan. Going to games I have realized how much I missed this part of the summer. BTW I took a native Israeli family with us to a game. They could not believe what a good time their kids had chasing balls. They were really into it. I hear more and more Israelis talking about it and wishing to go to games. The same people who wondered aloud what the fuss was about with sticks and balls just a few weeks ago--- I have almost wanted to say to them I TOLD YOU SO!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9131289420618991795.post-43807798918009826282007-07-17T12:11:00.000-04:002007-07-17T12:11:00.000-04:00That's fair enough.

Separate interpretations of the contract payment schedule.<BR/><BR/>Something as forward moving as the IBL is not going to pointedly leave out part of a due payment unless they believed what they were doing was correct.<BR/>All should show this great new league patience and respect. When was the last time you or anyone got a new sports league off the ground!!!!!!!?????????!<BR/>The league is a great addition. Games are a blast to go to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
