C_Malk0 Posted August 19, 2013 Author Share Posted August 19, 2013 First up, the Minnesota Moose, a well-run franchise that begun in 1975. They won their first PBLA championship in 1977, their third year, and have since been a dominant force in the western conference.Currently the Moose are managed by Cliff Wycoff, the oldest manager in the league at seventy-eight. Cliff has had a stellar career winning three titles in a storied 24-year tenure with Minnesota, the most recent in 2008. As he ages, the Moose have gotten better and better, as they currently have fan favorite Michael Hall, 31, at closer. Hall has a fiery attitude and fastball, making him one of the most feared relievers in the PBLA. Young ace Brian Collier, 27, possesses a 98 mph fastball along with a wicked 12-6 curveball. He is in the running to win the next Ty Lung award, given to each conference's best pitcher. And lastly there's good guy Andrew Calderon, 34. Calderon, from San Diego, is an advocate for cancer research after losing his brother at the age of eighteen, the day before he was drafted. Now, he is a soft-handed third baseman with a quick bat, hitting .290 or above in all but two of his 11 seasons, all of which with the Moose.Here are the logos and uniforms for the Minnesota Moose:http://s1363.photobucket.com/user/claytonmalkowsky/media/MM1_zps387cd4f5.png.html?sort=3&o=3http://s1363.photobucket.com/user/claytonmalkowsky/media/MM2_zpsc45d1f8d.png.html?sort=3&o=2http://s1363.photobucket.com/user/claytonmalkowsky/media/MM3_zps93556c78.png.html?sort=3&o=1http://s1363.photobucket.com/user/claytonmalkowsky/media/MM4_zps56552a0c.png.html?sort=3&o=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C_Malk0 Posted August 21, 2013 Author Share Posted August 21, 2013 Next, the Philadelphia Bell-Ringers, otherwise known as the 'Ringers. This club was joined in the league's initial formation way back in 1955. They are, throughout the last fifty decades, one of the more unlucky teams. The 'Ringers have played second fiddle to the Washington Eagles since the team's first season, both bitter rivals. They have experienced some success however over the course of the the years, winning 18 Eastern Conference titles in their 58-year existence with the league. In the years 1978-1984, Philadelphia rattled off consecutive conference titles and in 1982 won their only PBLA championship over the Indianapolis Redbirds in the maximum seven games. Part of this brief success was due to the actions of then owner, wacky Clark Tuban. He dreamed of silly yet intriguing ways to get fans out to Dupont Ballpark and was a true pioneer for all leaders of the various PBLA clubs. He even designed a zany vested jersey, one you can obviously tell came from the 80's. The jersey definitely goes against the grain of the 'Ringers' classic, contemporary look, but since it debuted during the team's only championship season, '82, the Bell-Ringers choose to wear it, even to this day, on Saturday nights. Besides the magical run then, Philadelphia has a rich history indeed, but many missteps along the way.Currently, the Philadelphia Bell-Ringers are on the outside looking in of the playoffs, but should get there for the first time since 1998 in the next few years due to their youthful position players. They're spearheaded by Philadelphia-native, young buck of a first baseman, Stephen Bird, 25. His 41 homers led the Eastern Conference last season. Then in center field, Darius Holcomb, 24, has a lot of range and scary pop in his .280+ bat. And finally, Paul Henderson, 37, the long-time workhorse in Philadelphia started his career with Washington but was picked up off waivers by the 'Ringers. He's been an underrated arm for years and will likely miss out on the promising future for this historical organization.Here are the logos and uniforms for the Philadelphia Bell-Ringers:http://s1363.photobucket.com/user/claytonmalkowsky/media/PB1_zps91c366d1.png.htmlhttp://s1363.photobucket.com/user/claytonmalkowsky/media/PB2_zps03a89413.png.htmlhttp://s1363.photobucket.com/user/claytonmalkowsky/media/PB3_zpsb2683f66.png.htmlhttp://s1363.photobucket.com/user/claytonmalkowsky/media/PB4_zpsba4cc9ec.png.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DS729 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I'd suggest shortening the name to "Ringers" The Bell Ringers wordmark looks like it barely fits on the jersey.Also on the alternate you should probably use the term "Philly" as you hear Philly alot more than you hear Phila.
