Just got off the phone after a long conversation with the other Brooklyn Commissioner: Amy Short. She seems very cool and honest. Although our leagues will be somewhat different, there's tons to like about what she's providing. Her fees are reasonable, at $720 a team, and she does give you alot for your money. Plus, she is a businesswoman, and doesn't intend on taking a bath, as I did in the fall. She wants the dough up front, and since she's put her own money up front to get the field space in Prospect Park, there is nothing wrong with her system at all.
She reigns from Baltimore, whose league I found out about only recently. From there she got her ideas about a very strict Co-Ed rule (with which i mostlty agree, and I truly admire the spirit behind it), and a fining system, with which I do not agree at all. Something tells me she may be liberal about fining, but that's her decision.
Bottom line: I invited her to come this Sunday to promote her league, and she will. She'll show up with fliers, and I will give her time to talk. Please, as I feel she is on the level, hear her out, and perhaps you can have two great nights of kickball in your week. Anyone showing her disrespect can hit the showers. I know exactly what she's going through, and I respect that. If u do not like something about her league, you can voice it with her, and perhaps she'll be receptive. But there is no reason to spew rancor. Again, kickball can go on everywhere, every night of the week, as far as I'm concerned.
