And it doesn't sound terribly fly-by-night: Baron's got a national profile as a big-league sports attorney; he's also founder of the Center for Sports Law and Risk Management, Inc., and co-editor of From the Gym to the Jury. Also on board are former journalist and Chicago Cubs media relations man Bob Ibach and ex-Los Angeles Dodger and New York Yankee Jay Johnstone, the former American League Rookie of the Year (40 years ago, for the California Angels). It's doubtful there would be a CBL team in the area; there are already several minor-league teams, including the Fort Worth Cats, the Frisco RoughRiders and the Texas Rangers. --Robert Wilonsky
