Phoenix, AZ --

You just knew this was coming, didn't you.

The Talons today announced a boycott of the long running Talons Season Preview Series, wherein the team would look at current and future players at each position. The team would maintain that writing and posting a series of team news articles would net them more total points, as opposed to writing an official preview article for some other team. The Talons would say that they would rather preview their own team instead of guessing at another franchise.

But this season, looks like neither is happening. Although the Talons Media Department had already posted previews for catcher and first base, it looks like those will be the only ones written for this season. The Talons, in a statement, said that not only are they super busy lately, but the second sim is already tonight, therefore making any future preview articles largely moot.

Some have speculated that, without an active Talons Team News Fan Club, most of the preview articles would get buried with no comments, thereby reducing their impact. And when that happens, what's the point? The Talons already have 20 points so far and have met their requirements. So, no use busting their ass to try and push these articles out, most of which won't be read anyway.

So there you have it. Go Talons!

Commenting purely so this article would not get buried with no comments. This thereby increases this team new's impact and relative "point".
