	Bill's Golden Baseball League (GBL) Journal.
		Back around 1993, even though many Major League Baseball players were making salaries in the multi-millionaire bracket, to a lot of these players, it still wasn't enough, so they went on strike.
		I have been to several GBL Games last season (2005) and this season, and have found that the love of the game and families do come first.
		To me, "Golden" is an appropriate word for this new Baseball League, becausethe GBL has sure brought back the "Golden Years of Baseball." I hope the Golden Baseball League is here to stay.

		Unlike most independent baseball leagues, the Golden League will have centralized ownership, meaning the league supports each of the individual teams, rather than the teams supporting the league.

		The GBL will start play in June of 2005 at the single-A level and be similar to the successful and profitable Atlantic and Northern Leagues back East.
		Unlike most other baseball leagues, the GBL has a single entity ownership structure whereby the league, in order to foster stability and align incentives, owns all the teams.
		(The League is funded by a constantly growing list of baseball fans across the country.) We believe this innovative approach will allow us to raise the bar set by successful minor leagues across the country.
