| Moving to eight teams will only make this division/league stronger. The long term future is much brighter with more masters teams. The economics and the dynamics of the community we live in demands recreational activities for older folks.

| A great league culture comes down to one thing: people. You define your values and mission, but ultimately, it's up to your team to live by them. And that starts with having a cohesive teams in the first place, one that's willing to trade ideas, praise, and even listen to recommendations. Going to eight teams will be a great decision.

| Having a hot bath when you’re sick is always a loaded decision. Feels so good at the time, but getting out is awful. The league must have some intelligence to support their expansion news. I endorse this move.

| Why does the masters division keep expanding?
Every league look to prosper in the future. We are all getting older and guys that sacrifice lots of their personal time can continued to play without the young studs. This will not dilute the product, it will enhance the play.
I endorse and approve this decision.

| You may think Masters slo-pitch is just an activity for older folks but most of us would vehemently disagree. We spend fun, enjoyable evenings playing ball with guys of our own age and ability. The move to eight teams will only ensure we all remain a vibrant fixture in this league for many more years. I can't disagree with anything written above.
