Surprise, Greater Central Arizona Metropolitan Area, FEMA Region 9--
The Talons AAA team used to be in Ashland, Wisconsin. They were named the Slowriders, which is in reference to a work of graffiti that was located on the old Ashland Ore Dock before it was torn down. That team has been named the Slowriders even back to the days of the GBC. No, not that GBC, the REAL GBC from back in the day with FPS BBPro98. But since everything from Wisconsin is total shit, the Talons decided to move their AAA team to a suburb like 10 miles away from their major league team. The team has never been that good and hasn't even made the playoffs since 2041.
Surprise is just basically a trash heap now, with old guys or crappy guys all over the roster. Old friends sometimes make an appearance, like the guy that invented the "stopper" concept RP Tiernan O'Macken, or even old Talons 3B Murray Healy. There is even a guy with a record low movement of 1, and that's SP James House and he has an ERA of like 6. Go figure.
Anyway, we just made like a million dollars today writing stupid articles about our minor league teams. So that's cool. No need to think or be creative. Just churn and burn.
go talons of surprise, arizona.
