Talk:Independent baseball league

message: This article was completely saturated in external links, which I have removed. However, they may be of some use to anyone wishing to expand, so I'm moving them here. Bare in mind, I haven't visited them, so I can't vouch for their credibility.  Also, I should mention that, with all the links, I'm somewhat suspicious that this was a product of plagerism.

message: To say that independent baseball leagues "operate in cities not served by Major or Minor League Baseball teams" is blatantly incorrect.  Many independent franchises are located in Major League markets. --Truthiness 03:31, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
