Needed to change that post...

After speaking with a few people last night, including the owner of The Nairobi Warthogs, the best decision to be made right now is to allow Nairobi the right to move to the WL next season while The Black Hand will be going the rebuilding route. Nairobi right now has a solid foundation in place and is WL ready and this gives APL a better chance to keep more teams in WL next season and enhance our reputation. I'm not leaving and will certainly be looking to help a team next season, but right now this is the best decision for APL and to some degree me....

Now all that is left is take home the Gold...Best of luck and great season to all of APL!

Sad to see you guys go. Outbreak could probably use some good/great dots for our push next season. Especially since some people think we suck.

You earned the right to play in the WL.

It is better to go 1-15 in the WL than not trying. You deserve to be up there.

Even doing poorly in WL is more fun than easy pro imo. Defintiely an experience to go through once as an owner. But i understand that it's kinda of a time suck. best of luck

Not that I need to explain to anyone, but this isn't my first trip to WL, already been there and done that with this team so I know what it takes. Add to it that I have been a part of The Blaze network since back in the Pierre days, I have a clue on what it takes to win it all. That being said, I am not declining to stay in APL, The Black Hand is going back to the drawing board and building up with our Level 28 players. We will be back soon enough...

Sorry to hear that RJ, you guys bring it every game, and rep APL very well. I hope to see you back up here soon with your level 28 team.

If you're looking for a team to help out, the Redhorns would be a great option IMO

Yea, i can't blame you. It's fun to make it from the bottom. A different kind but still fun challenge. Hope to see you guys back up in pro

Sorry to see Black Hand rebuild. That said I wish Bort would change the promotion process to World League. IMO if a team declines a WL promotion the top demoting clubs should stay in WL. Nairobi is a top flight club and is obv WL caliber... (and would of benefited from this a season ago if this was in place..). So good luck to you guys next season.
