Driller's to fold

[BaronInEdmonton]

Remember the old saying measure twice, cut once?
Me neither. This whole ABA thing seems like the league tried to throw as much as possible at the wall, and hopefully something would stick. Expand 30 teams? Sure. 7 or 8 gotta make it to year #2. Its just insane. I love sporting train wrecks.

The corpse is dead & buried.

The new owners already dropped it. Who knew that expanding from 7 teams to 35 teams in one year would be a bad thing.

I was just on the ABA site and they s are saying that the Drillers are playing this Friday at home, is there any truth to any of this?

Even if the team had survived to Friday, they would have been slaughtered at the gate. Hitmen game that night, as well as the Canuck's annual horse giveaway.

50 people would have shown up for the Drillers, if they were lucky.

Strange, the team is still on the ABA website as 5-10....
