    yep. I'm not going to read through that thing, but I'm pretty sure I felt like we'd never be lucky enough to get RR back. How long is the agreement with Fresno? Here's hoping we can have the Express back sometime this decade.

    The Rangers's PDC with Round Rock ends in 2018. The 2019 season would the earliest they could play in Round Rock, assuming that the Rangers are not bought out and that Luhnow and Nolan Ryan relationship does not end in fisticuffs.

    The Asrtos signed a two year PDC deal with Fresno for the 2015 and 2016 seasons.

    ...I was aware; hence "sometime this decade"

    ...hence, "here's hoping" :cool"

    Thanks!
