[The Norwich Navigators have announced two major promotions in their front office staff. Keith Hallal was promoted from General Manager to Vice President and Jim Beaudoin was named the General Manager.] With the much anticipated re-launch of the team and the many changes that we will soon be announcing, our team requires top level, creative management, ... I am happy to promote Keith to Vice President and announce the hiring of Jim Beaudoin, one of the best young General Managers in Minor League Baseball. Under the leadership of Keith and Jim, 2006 will be a whole new ballgame at Dodd Stadium. |
Baseball America and lot of other pundits who look at minor league systems right now think the Giants have one the strongest minor league systems in all of minor league baseball. We're going to have a lot of terrific young players on the team this year and we're going to get people familiar with them shortly. |
He could be a lot more dangerous now, ... People look at his record with the (19 wins) and five KOs and think he's got nothing. He's going to sucker someone into a real good fight. I can see him going from this next fight to a guy like Oscar Diaz and then onto DeMarcus Corley. |
He had a good 24 hours, ... Doctors said the swelling in his brain did go down. They wouldn't go so far as to say he is out of danger, but they are now more optimistic. |
He had another surgery and his hand appears to be fine. He can't afford to break it again. I think he knows that this is it. He's been cleared by his doctors and by the (New York) commission. We're hoping for the best. |
He is to Atlantic City what Oscar De La Hoya is to Vegas. That building loves him. |
He was too brave for his own good, |
He's a classy kid, |
He's a quality opponent and we've spoken to his people, but nothing is signed yet and there's nothing done yet. |
He's not in good shape. |
He's not in good shape. The brain started swelling and they were inducing a coma. |
He's the best fighter with a bad record in boxing. That's why I promote him. |
I don't think there's anyone to blame here other than the circumstances. Leavander has a heart of a champion, and that's why he's in the hospital. He's a victim of his own courage. |
I hope it's a great fight with a record number of punches thrown, ... Bob Canobbio had a great idea on how to make a significant donation to assist the victims of Hurricane Katrina and we are more than happy to participate. |
