Trying a slightly new format here for a change. Do you like it organized by category below? Anyway, a ton going on in this very busy summer. As I am sure you are aware, Dynasty acquired an agency that represents coaches. We have additionally begun our recruiting efforts in football and basketball. Dan Leatherman continues to shine and Gerard Haran has been getting more at bats as of late. There may even be some HUGE news coming for Dynasty’s Baseball Division. Dynasty Newswire is quickly getting a solid following. All is good. I should be on a few radio shows this coming week. I will be sure to post the details soon.
