The Rustlers are scouting players and closing a deal that will have the team playing home games in it's own stadium without a city taking on the cost to get it up as some other local minor league team had to do. The 2008 season will have the team playing at least 25 home dates starting in May of 2008,more information to be released in a few weeks as the team looks at options an independent baseball organization has before it.

Regulators relocate
After the 2007 pro indoor season the team found itself having to do something in order to continue growing as with a few other minor league sports teams in Fort Worth,Texas a move was needed not because the teams wanted to but because the city would not make it easy to play any type of sports in the city.As many of you know the NBA D-League team Flyers were left with the option of staying or continuing to lose millions they choose to leave after the city wouldn't give them what was needed to stay,and the Regulators were just dealt with in a we will run the cost up on you . But as in any other matter Regulators owner Will Williams just said I just keep moving there is always an open door you just have to look a little harder when other's try to keep you out the game ,the Regulators will be ready for the 2008 season and we are working hard .

Rustlers will play in 2008 !
Even with some dirty play from another local baseball club afraid of competing the Rustlers will hit the field in 2008 and not live on yesterday's anything as the other local club is starting to find out current fans don't care about yesterday. Stay tuned as the Rustlers do what was done to those in the old west who didn't know how to do what was needed to stay at the top of the food chain.

Do the Fort Worth Cats really have 4500 at games ?
If you look in the newspaper after a Cats game the numbers are 3200 plus after each game but let's go inside the numbers for real this season 2007 even at the home opener they couldn't sell it out just go to a game and listen for the announcement for today's game numbers then look around you at all of the empty seats of people who paid but didn't come to the game (wink wink).They may have 1500 at games these days and will only sell out during the 4th of July fireworks show which comes after the game and is better for seating to watch the show,long gone are the history days of rolling out old timers for fans as the new fans aren't interested in yesterday's news of the team but management don't seem to know this and the fan base is falling right before there eyes,so next time you go to the game watch the numbers because you are being counted twice.

D-League continues to fall
Ok here is the thing while the Fort Worth Flyers can win games on the court they can't get any fans to look at the product which is not bad when you consider the league is way over sold for what it really is.The team has not had 1000 fans at any one game this season and average around 250 at best and what may have been the best crowd of the 2007 season of about 1100 when the local high school power house played before a Flyers game early in the season ,will they have to move the team or can they continue to lose ton's of money while they wait to build the league up to the magic number of 30 in hope's of the NBA teams then taking on the over head to operate a D-League team only time will answer this question.

Arena team in future ?
GSG Sports Group is looking into a possible move into Arena Football if the move is made the Fort Worth Regulators will be moved into that organization said owner Will Williams the indoor game offer some opportunities the outdoor game is still a few year's behind in and while we have tried to look at every opportunity we could to see the out game of football grow it's just doesn't have the business people needed init yet to take the outdoor minor league game to the level's it could be .There are some good outdoor teams with good programs but getting all of the few teams who can take the game to new levels can get together to make up a league.

The question still is!
How long will the NBA D-League Fort Worth Flyers be able to lose what is mounting up to be another season of millions?one noticed that on in two games over the last week the team could not draw more than real number's of 1000 to either game.The thinking was build it and they will pour into the Convention Center has not worked yet and from the looks of it won't any other time either.

D-League blues
While the Flyers have gotten off to a good start 3-0 where are the fans they will and do so badly need to justify the business of having the team let's face it ego aside losing as much as a million a season makes no business since.The first two home games had if lucky maybe 500 people in the building despite fluff number's by the local paper which by the way has number problem's of it's own when it comes to how many people still read it.If the Flyers continue to draw 500 a game at home even though they will tell you season ticket holder have many ticket's they just don't come to the games how long can they go on Fort Worth as a city loves sports but and this is the tricky part they don't come out in large numbers to support any team and one thing that is certain the city is a football town when the arena league had a team in the city it drew well but the team couldn't get any good weekend dates from the Convention Center and so they moved to Florida the Tampa Bay Storm used to be the Fort Worth Calvalry.There are two levels of minor league sports in the city one with big over head and trying to get the public to see them as more of a big league sports enity and another which operates as they did in the early days of sports cut as much over head as possible and play the game all of the Regulators sports teams operate at this level and that level has it's own built in fan base now we would like to see the Flyers make it but the numbers just don't add up no matter how much fuzzy math you do so unless you the fan decide the team is a worthy item on your agenda it's just a matter of how long can they go even with some behind the political curtain moves in their favor they get.
Tuesday, November 21
Reality check on D-League
As the sports fans in Fort Worth know the second year Flyers are about to get off to their second year in the city the 2006 team drew about 500 fans per game a far cry from the 4,000 then team president Todd Spears said he knew the team would draw.The team just had an open house that drew less than 100 people and they had free food for any one that came,it will be interesting to see how long this new version of the league can go it has fell apart twice over a six year period the Fort Worth team will have to draw more than 500 to make any business since of having the team in the city with all the over head it has.The Flyers help put the Brahmas hockey team out of business by taking some weekend game dates from them through political means even though the hockey team was losing a Million a season over a 8 year span,the Cats while enjoying championship's draw about 1500 to 2000 per game which are some good number's when you take out the over head cost for operating.

Brahmas hockey gone !
After 8 year's of mostly a losing team the team brass called it quit's the Brahmas will not have a team in 2007 but say they will be back after the season but in minor league sports the end is really the end,the team went through coaches like drinking water but never found the right guy for the job or could the problem have been the general manager Mike Barrack was the guy in charge of putting a good product on the ice and for some reason he just didn't get it done even though it alway's seem to come down to the coach.The fans said Barrack was at fought he said it was the coach and the player's just didn't buy into the whole thing as they left year after year to find greener pasture's the organization lost right at $1 million dollar's a season and was losing most people said they could see losing the money if the team was a winner.

The 2006 season begin's on Saturday April 8th with the first team mini camp we have some young player's who will be very good receiver Cody Hooper has speed and size linebacker Josh Horn will be a player to watch quarterback Keith Clerkley will have to grow fast in order for the offense to be productive returning receiver Ray Amenta will head up the receiver corp.The official team training camp open's May 2nd as the team prepare's to travel to Springfield Missouri to take on the Rifles a big power team who like to run it right at your defense ,coach David White said this will be a test for the type of defense we run which happen's to be the 46 we take pride in not having teams run the ball on us so this will be interesting to see how long it takes to break them down .

NDBL cool school game a flop!!!
After two big events put on by the Fort Worth Brahmas hockey team with the Fort Worth ISD the event didn't take place this season because of money,Gas,Buses so on and so on by school district people the event had brought in over 8 to 10 thousand kid's to watch an early morning hockey game mixed with some education.It was a success so it should be easy to pull it off again thought the NDBL Fort Worth Flyers well they had maybe 6 to 8 classes of 4th grade students and pretty much no attending fans everything this organization has done this season off the court has blown up on them the final draw is changing ticket prices in mid season from $8.00 to $10.00 for general admission they have been successful on the court.But can they afford to try again next season is the question not if as they have also had some payroll issues's we do wish them well but they have learn'ed a very hard lesson about the minor league sports market in Fort Worth and that is the NBA name tote's no weight in the community when it comes to basketball fan's in the area.

Regulators Basketball lose in Oklahoma
The team lost to Oklahoma Pawnee after leading at halftime they shot less than 50 percent from the field and the free throw line and have look'ed slugglish up to this point of the season after having a 17-3 season last year they have already lost 3 games this season as they head to Houston.
Tuesday, February 7
The price has changed !!!
The Fort Worth Flyers NDBL basketball team came into town keeping up a lot of warm air just as the teams that came before them now they have yet to really have 1000 fans attend a game even though the after game number's continue to say 1,200 that is a lot of no shows with season tickets we have attend'ed one game where there were less than 200 at the game.Now to top that off the $8.00 ticket they used to sell is now reserved for season ticket holder's which they have few and far between the going ticket price is now $10.00 from what was advertised as a $8.00 ticket at the start of the season does this say we are in money trouble ? I don't know but when the ticket price changes something stink's in the room the only question is how much money can the team lose and stay in Fort Worth.

Friday, December 30
Are the Flyers for real?
As another one in a long list of teams to come to Fort Worth claiming to be the next big thing in minor league basketball the team has not had a crowd of 1000 at any game yet and are laying people off as they go into the unknown even to them ,as people who are at the games seem to like some of what they see when you only have about 200 or so people in the crowd you would think they would even like for you to sit anywhere you want in an empty arena but they have Ushers looking for people sitting in the wrong seats when general admission is the only thing they should be charging when the $75.00 courtside seats are sitting empty we will update other news on this next big minor league basketball team to come to Fort Worth in 2006.
Saturday, December 10
Another one falls !!
Just last year the ABA came into Fort Worth in the form of the Texas Tycoons they were to be yet another team that was really bringing minor basketball into the city at a high level well they have shut down shop as did the RimRockers before them from the USBL and now the Flyers from yet another league that folded after their championship from the NBA sponsored NDBL now called the NBDL well the mighty Flyers are averaging less than 400 fans per game and they came in keeping up a lot of noise as well we will wait and see what becomes of this last group.The Tarrant County Regulators have been growing steady each year as they enter year four by adding radio which is something even the Flyers can't broadcast also this season the Regulators will be adding a coaches show .Regulators owner Will Williams said we don't see other teams as nothing more than another business doing what we do only we like being profitable.

Young Regulators football team
Even with a lot of team speed and a couple of rookie coaches things have not fell into place early in there season but coaches feel that things will turn around head coach Will Williams said we have a pretty good team this season but with so much youth at key position's we will have to grow as we go so too speak so loses will come early but as they start to put things together we have a lot of talent and those wins will start to mount but this will be a learning season.The Regulators have lost the first two games and have shown sparks of what's to come but penalty's have put a damper on the teams energy level early in the season.

Big time kicker ?
The Fort Worth Regulators have signed kicker Sinisa Vivilo the former South Hills high school 55 yard kicker in a high school game. He has also kicked a 69 field goal in practice so to sum it up he can kick, he has a 90 % touchback rate on kickoff's we feel very good about our scoring oportunities in games if we can't get it into the end zone with the offensive unit we don't think but feel very good about scoring with the kick.Regulators fans should give him a big boost of energy when they open the 2005 season at home on July 16th at 8pm at Nolan high school football stadium that the Regulators will call home for the 2005 season the team will televise the game as the game of the week on Charter cable channel 31.

Regulators WIN!
Regulators win after a tough battle with their rival The Dallas Diesel and their refs. Score 100 - 95. This win comes after a week of the anouncement of yet another team coming to Ft Worth, TX. This time the team is from the NDBL a loose connection to the NBA because the players assoc. will not have any association with the NBA. Commissioner David Sterns is trying to push the affiliation, but the NBA players association will not sign off on it. The team is said to play the 23 home games at the FT Worth Convention Center durning the same time that the Ft Worth Brahamas hockey team has all of the weekends booked for their home games.

The Fort Worth Brahmas hockey team won in a way only a movie could do on screen in a shootout and with the NHL guy who is not known for scoring since he is a defensemen Brad Lukowich took the puck and with some dandy stick work put it in the basket to win the home opener for the team .Which could not score but one goal during regulation play now one game doesn't say the team is back they after all are giving up 5 goals per game and still not scoring enough but at this stage they have more wins than last season at this same point so let's wait and see what happen's the next 10 games but for now go Brahmas.

Big Game
On Thursday November 11th the Tarrant County Regulators will matchup with the new ABA Texas Tycoons in an exhibition game Regulators Tom Robinson said this game will be like a championship game we have been in the city for two years with the coming season being number three this will be the second team that would have come to Fort Worth building themself's as the second coming of pro basketball in the city the last group last'ed all of one season and with the late start this one will be hard pressed to be around past that but we will still be here when the dust clear's. So that makes this game that much more important for both groups because this type of game doesn't get played by normal standard's of a league system's there is to much to lose game time is set for 7:00pm at the WG Thomas Coliseum in Haltom City home of the Haltom high school team 6108 Broadway Street the Tycoons are hosting the game but if things should change the game will be played at the Haws Athletic Center home court of the Regulators downtown Fort Worth.

RDBL VS CBA Exhibition games
The Tarrant County Regulators basketball team will take on the CBA Rockford Lightning in Rockford,IL November 6th it will be in early November before the CBA season starts November 19th the Regulators will be in offseason workout and training but wanted to take on the other league teams Tom Robinson said this way we find out on the court if our players have what it takes to play in the big show if the opportunity comes, since that league (CBA) has players from the NBA and some who are trying to get to the NBA just like our guys are. One thing we find in the CBA and USBL is high scoring of average's 100 plus points per game that tell me they don't play defense and as teams also give up that many points we play defense so it should be a very good game,Also the Johnson County Outlawz will travel to Muskegon,MI to play the newest CBA team the Mayhem new head coach Chris Lewis will find out what he has in camp before league training camp opens in February for the 2005 RDBL season.

The basketball Regulators have made a trade with the Johnson County Outlawz for shooting guard James Whitfield they traded shooting guard Ronald Brennin who was the teams second leading scorer.
On the football front the Regulators are looking to sign RB J.T Trotter from Crown College his Senior season he had 2108 all purpose yards and 104 points he has a legit 4:38 40 yard dash time so he is capable of scoring from anywhere on the field,the 2005 season will be very exciting we will have speed QB Willie Jones will play wideout next season we will use his speed outside so grooming our QB for the 2005 season will be a big part of this off season.

The Fort Worth Cats are having a year in that you don't what to expect from the team one day they look like they are the league champs the next who knows what they doing,they have siged new players releasing others the pitching is strong this season but the offense is down and that could turnout to be the short coming of this years team as we get ready for the all star break lets see if they can right the ship for a strong second half,they are in 3rd place but the league is water down from what it was last season the teams aren't that good so you have a close race for the division championship.

Thrusday night games at the center!!!!
Ok the new team Tycoons basketball has announced they will play Thursday night home games at the convention center the Brahmas switched from games before Friday for one reason they couldn't draw on those nights and they have and continue to lose money playing at the center while it would be good competition for the RDBL Fort Worth Regulators basketball team word has it that the organization don't expect the ABA to be around any longer than the USBL Rim Rockers were,in minor league sports losing money while part of the game is not a long term idea just 4 home dates will run the Tycoons $16,000.00 and that is just for the center put the payroll and other operating cost in the mix where will there travel budget be by then the Rim Rockers drew at best 100 people justify that crowd with the over head of the center and only the gate revenue the math won't fit.Regulators front office people have said we love to see people compete but also there is a down side to them folding it makes it hard on us as a organization because every time some league tries to come to the city with big eyes and fold it leaves a bad taste in peoples mouth about continuing support for minor league sports .We operate on a different system we are a pro/am team the business of minor league sports is now about making money just owning a team does nothing for the bottom line we have spent the last 2 years building a solid base and sponsorship is getting better for the Regulators which air games on Cable in the city we will still be around when the dust settles again said Tom Robinson.

Another Rim Rocker coming to Fort Worth!!!!
First let us get to the point while the new ABA team would be a fine edition to the local sports clan in Fort Worth it looks like they are will not be around very long,they have announced they are playing at the Convention Center from November to March but as an insider on this subject the center is book'ed by the Brahmas hockey team from October through April and some dates in case they ever make another playoff through May the center only has 18 open dates for the year and those you can't book up because of events they may use as community days or can be book'ed.But lets get to the money involved in this setup first the center keeps all of the concession and parking money so the team would only get the gate and after paying for the center and security and the added cost to put the basketball floor down every time they would need to use it and pay players and pay for the road trips the math won't come together which means belly up by the 15th game.

Basketball Regulators to get big man!
The Tarrant County Regulators will look to add the true center the team has needed since it started operations in 2003 Gabor Sallay of Hungary will be in the fold next season the 21 year old 6'11 center who plays in the division 1 level of Hungary basketball will join the team for the 2005 season.The team will also look to add a power forward in the mix.Dayo Holloway will play small forward next season which will fit his skills better as he had to play center and power forward this season, Jesse Clinton will be switched to a small forward but will play some power forward when the team goes small in their lineup in the 2005 season.Tom Robinson said we know what we already have and what moves will make the players we have better in our system shooting guard Ronald Brenning who can at times shoot lights out will need to get better at watching the game and not just playing it we need him to understand better what he is doing when he is on the court.

The Tarrant County Regulators lose a hard fought game the lead up and down the Regulators came back from 15 points down to lead by 11 mid way through the third period the T-Express hit 5 big 3 point shots to take the lead which went to both sides for the last 6 minutes of the game the Regulators then went up 6 points with 2 minutes left only to give up that lead Chris Davis hit some good shots and Dayo Holloway and David Peoples came up with some shots that should have put the game away but with both teams in the bonus the game was won from the line in the last 50 seconds by the Express. Holloway missed an important free throw attempt that would have put the Regulators up and possibly the game.

Brahmas win 7-3
The all out war between the Rayz and Brahmas turned into a one sided blowout as the Brahmas took control of the game early and really looked back they continue to show improvement but still don't have the killer trait a top team would have when beating an opponet they gave up 3 goals in less than 5 minutes .And couldn't hold the shutout when given the opportunity to do just that yes they won and that is yet another step in the right direction so Al Sims continue to work his plan for the rest of the season so contenders look out the Brahmas won't be easy.
Tuesday, December 23

New coach any one!
The Fort Worth Brahmas minor league hockey team fired head coach Bill Inglis some say what took so long after coming into a losing situation he could not turn the team around,at times they played well but you never got a feeling that the team was under the right man for the job.The team has been on a two and half years losing streak they win ever so often but a contender I think not and both players and fans had about as much as both sides could take but now comes the real test will GM Mike Barrack get the right person or will he keep the same situation only another body doing the job because some think he should be on the chopping block too.Al Sims is the new coach he was fired by the Corpus Christi Icerayz November 18th of this 2003 season after they were having a tough start at 5-6-2.

The Amarillo Gorillas beat the Brahmas by a 9-1 score on sunday afternoon,The Austin Icebats had just finished them on saturday night November 22 by a score 2-1.Now this could be taken 2 ways its early and things will get better or it looks to be another long season for those fans who wish to hang in there but looking at the amount of fans coming to the home games not many intend to hang around.Let us face it the name of the game is (Win) and this rings even more so in minor league sports.
Wednesday, November 19
Could the Brahmas be dead before season really starts?
The team has 2 wins and have looked good at times but? we saw this last season and you what that turned into,they are looking to bring back some players who have been a part of the team before to try and turn things around coach Inglish has shown that he is good at pulling them together as a team but wins have been far and away hard to find.Could Craig Johnson who was a coach last season have tuned this team into winners he thought he would get at least a chance but the Brahmas brass went back with Inglish as the head coach so Johnson walked now it is still early in the season but from looking at the fans attending the games they are getting restless and want a winner one things for sure a change is coming again if things don't turn by seasons end.

Early losses could cost Brahmas
Can the team afford to lose a few games early in the season and catch up later,well I don't think so this team while on paper looks like a better team than last seasons team still is not good enough to get into early losing as a way to be a contender by playoff time.The one point losses while not too bad on the score board tells a lot about a team like this stay tuned it could be a long season again.

The Fort Worth Cats started the second half of the season with 4 wins but seem to falling back into what was a not a good first half not enough hits they are at or near the bottom of the in almost every team stat the question will come up after this is it the coach or the players they make roster moves and still not get any better now the fan base is their people are attending the games in record numbers for a second year team but how much longer will they wait for a winner i think a half of next season which would be the third year for the young franchise the fans will continue to support a team that loses by 1 run but 11 to 1 blowouts will cause the winds to change real fast stay tuned .

Brahmas trying to find stride
Its still to early to call the season a loss the team has gotten off to another bad start and injuries are taken a toll on it as well but the players seem to not want to give up and if they can just make it through the first half i think they will be ok maybe not ready for the elite teams in the league just yet but on any given night they can knock one off and that alone will get them respect. Some roster moves will have to be made in order to get into the plyoffs that can be seen even this early in the season.
