Once again autumn is upon us, and thus it is time for the annual tradition of updating the site to say goodbye to the teams that have folded, moved, or suspended operations and say hello to the new teams.

Fortunately, there are no teams to say goodbye to. Every (minor league) hockey team that played last season is playing in the same place this season.

There are a few new teams to say hello to. We welcome the Bloomington Bison and Tahoe Knight Monsters of the ECHL. Of course there are also some existing teams with new logos to tackle as well.




"What's the Bush League Factor?" you may be thinking.

Basically, it's a not-too-serious attempt at quantifying how lousy some of the logos in minor league hockey and baseball are. Certain offenses have been catalogued -- cartoony logos, logos with irrelevant features in them (such as a bear in the logo for a team called the "Aces"), trendy and/or garish colors, and so forth. Each offense has been given a point value, and the scores have been added up.

Some people would say that I need to get a life, and they may be right, but until then I'm going to keep working on this.

Updates should come roughly once a week during the season...maybe more often, maybe less. Keep checking to see what I have to say. With every update one team (sometimes more if I'm feeling ambitious) will be spotlighted. Teams will be done in a seemingly random order (it isn't, but the exact order is left as an exercise to the reader).

Navigation is fairly straightforward. Look at the links on the left and click on the team or department you want to go to.

If you wish to contact me, the best way is through the Facebook page. Comments are welcome and encouraged. Particularly witty comments may get put on the website. Particularly stupid ones may as well. Sending me a message or e-mail regarding the Bush League Factor constitutes acceptance of these terms (which is a fancy way of saying, "No, you can't sue me for putting your comment on the webpage!").
