Hopefully I can get the embargo lifted way before that. I'm not sure if I'll be able to butterfly the coronavirus, though.
Well if then if realtions with cuba are normizled who would be most likely to build a theme park in cuba. Disney and universla like keeping thier parks few and far part and since they both have parks in oralando thye may not wish to build in cuba. I feel that it more likely that cuba will get a parmount pinacle, a a worlds of wondr or a warner borthers movie world. There is also the possiably that six kings or turrner might build a but they perfer to buyout park then build them. Still Six kings did build the hollywood park

1. That's good to hear.
2. Hopefully she can.
3. David Hill welcome to the Hot Seat.
4. Eep...
5. What, why?
6. Odyssey probably needed something that can help them grow. Them getting MLB was a good start honestly.
7. Expand to Vancouver already! Need more MLB teams in Canada.
8. Wonder how long he will regret saying that.
9. Meh... Why is the team still called the Rocky Moutain Extreme?
10. Yes. Why not at this point. Unless the WLAF or whatever adds another team in Jacksonville to replace the Jaguars. Hell, revive (or Bring in from OTL) the Jacksonville Bulls, and fans will be happy with that.

SportsCenter excerpt from December 4, 2006
Dan Patrick: "Just a month ago, the St. Louis Stallions of the World League faced an uncertain future. With the Dome at America's Center undergoing upgrades to accommodate the soon-to-be St. Louis Sorcerers of the NFL, the Stallions looked as if they were going to play the entire 2007 season on the road. Now, that's no longer the case, as officials in Jacksonville have stepped up to buy the homeless team. Florida's governor-elect Charlie Crist made crystal clear he wasn't gonna allow his state to keep bleeding pro sports teams after the Jaguars' shift to St. Louis was confirmed to be a done deal. World League commissioner Oliver Luck says he is open to delaying the kickoff of the 2007 season from February to either March or April to give the Stallions time to rebrand upon their arrival in Duval County."

Patrick (Continued): "The new World League's new Jacksonville squad will shift from the Central to the Seabord Division to form an in-state rivalry with the Orlando Thunder. All other divisions in the WLAF will stay as is."
Central Division
Birmingham Maulers
Chicago Blitz
Kentucky Stingers
Memphis Pharaohs
Toronto Huskies (Division swap with Jacksonville)
Seaboard Division
Baltimore Ravens
Hartford Knights
Jacksonville (Division swap with Toronto)
Orlando Thunder
Philadelphia Stars
 
We'll great to @OldNavy1988! Up in the air for 2007's Peacock slate included Jerry Seinfeld starrer Bee Movie, AEW Studios' Steve Austin starrer The Condemned, and The Mad Ghoul. But the Blue Beetle and Dreamgirls already came to theaters.

Honestly good to see that. So the CFL Argonauts will be the only team in Toronto with the Huskies leaving. Were the Toronto Huskies the only Canadian team in the WLAF or not?

Also, if they are going to be moved from Toronto to Jacksonville, this will be the perfect time to bring the OTL USFL Jacksonville Bulls to help the city move on from the Jaguars.

Actually, the Huskies are still in Toronto. They're just swapping divisions with the new Jacksonville team in a slight realignment.
