I've been there from the start:
-Fan Day
-Every game except Dayton
-I have spread the word about this team to everyone in town.
It's time for the new owners to speak up as to why this week has gone down the way it has with Sunday being canceled then postponed to Wednesday and then canceled again.
New owners of the team: Please speak up and give us a clue as to what's happening and is the game on Saturday really going to take place?

Hey folks, I spoke with Bobby Jackson, the team's GM, this evening on the phone. He's assured me that once this turf situation is fixed that there are nothing but GOOD things coming from the front office.
This is an unfortunate and discouraging bump in the road for the Stingers and their fans, but hang tough and don't throw in the towel yet. Mr. Jackson has invited me to stop by his office and have a chat about the future of the team.
He's even extended his open door policy to all of you! Feel free to email him: jackson.bobby@yahoo.com or call him at the office. He wants people to support this team and to be able to have FAITH in the organization. I believe he and Coach Miller are both committed to being successful for the team and the fans.

I would love to sit down with Mr Jackson myself and talk have him call the cell number on the card I gave Wendi today. Tony Edwards Augusta Spartans
I cant tell any of you this enough hang in there you will make it. It takes time hardwork and dedication. We know where youve been we are averaging 5600 a game but it doesnt come over night.

Augusta, I personally want to thank you for the words of encouragement. It means alot coming from a person in a different league and market. I hope that everyone here can take some comfort in your words and give the Stingers another chance after the problems they've experienced recently.
It's a good team and the people I have spoken with within the team sound sincere in their committment to making this team successful.
