<span style="font-family:arial;font-size: 10pt">Just my two cents here, Having played 2 FSPA leagues last season and many many more prior I have to say that the last season was by far the worst. This has no reflection on the folks that managed the leagues, in fact quite the opposite.</span><span style="font-family:arial;font-size: 10pt"> Kevin Rich Edan and Matty Y worked their butts off. One player games are bad. It goes against the spirit of playing and competing with friends. If I wanted to play pinball by myself I could do that home. Much luv to the pinball Tribe.</span><span style="font-family:arial;font-size: 10pt">Ed</span><br>
