> Byron Pierce and John Bryant have gone public in their attempt to form a

> independent baseball league. The first team in the new league will be the
> Rio Valley WhiteWings, playing in Harlingen, Texas; if that name is
> familiar, it's because the WhiteWings formerly played in the Central
> Baseball League and the Texas-Louisiana League, which Pierce and Bryant
> founded in 1994. The duo say they'll announce the other seven teams in the
> league as well as the league name in upcoming weeks. One thing that will
> differentiate the new league from other independent leagues: it will
> emphasize veteran players, with only two rookies allowed on each team.
> (Whether this makes a difference to fans remains to be seen.) Like the
> original Texas-Louisiana League and the Golden Baseball League, operations
> will be centralized: GMs will manage the business side, but the managers
> will be hired by the league and be in charge of personnel.
