Market Street are out not the result of the recent violence of a hurricaneassociated windstorm but because of the implied curfew that comes with a somewhat depressed but still managing to gentrify neighborhood like this It is a weekend night midnight outside Wayside Christian Missions east downtown complex a sprawling if ramshackle series of old buildings in various states of update This campus has 106 beds for adult women and their children and the families stay in the building on the corner Sometimes more than a handful of them pack into the offwhite tiledfloor rooms on the second floor Six transitional apartments are occupied There is a patio area between two of the buildings where a fence used to keep from the publics view groups of women smoking cigarettes reading playing cards having conversations and generally being outside the confines of theirrooms which any American pulling a robustenough paycheck would consider appallingly small and soulless Single women occupy the other bookending building on the east side next to Flame Run Gallery and Studio On an average night there are about 60 women here

have been lifted from a Disney theme parkHow appropriate as another major golf tournament comes to a course that's always seemed to be a bit of a whimsical creationLacking the tradition of an Augusta National or the truly memorable holes of a place such as Pebble Beach this Jack Nicklausdesigned layout on the eastern fringe of Louisville is nonetheless hosting the Ryder Cup it's third bigtime event in the last dozen yearsNot bad for a club that's not even as old as the youngest member of the US team 23yearold Anthony KimAt least the reviews are better than they were in 1996 when Valhalla hosted its first PGA Championship just a decade after opening its gates The comments then were pretty stinging

League Bowling Green and Lake County Ohio will move from the SAL to the Midwest League prior to the 2010 season minor league officials announcedThe move means Bowling Green won8217;t stay in the same league as the Lexington Legends which provided an opportunity for a natural instate rivalryBut a spot in the Midwest League also means that affiliates of the St Louis Cardinals Quad Cities River Bandits Cincinnati Reds Dayton Dragons and Chicago Cubs Peoria Chiefs 045; three of the more popular Major League Baseball teams in the area 045; will make appearances in Bowling Green8220;We kind of take the approach the glass is always half full8221; said Rick Brenner president of DSF Sports which owns Bowling Green Pro Baseball and the New Hampshire Fisher Cats 8220;While certainly a rivalry with Lexington will be great for 2009 a move to the Midwest League brings an affiliate of the Cincinnati Reds the Cardinals and Cubs 045; some of the teams that are a little more regionally appealing for the folks in the Bowling Green area from what I8217;ve gathered8221;Meanwhile the Midwest League is a more geographically compact area for the Bowling Green team including teams from Indiana Ohio Michigan Iowa Wisconsin and IllinoisAlong with teams in Georgia 045; including the Columbus Catfish the franchise that is moving to Bowling Green at the end of the season 045; the SAL also has teams in Ohio New Jersey Maryland Kentucky North Carolina South Carolina and West VirginiaThe average distance from Bowling Green to the current SAL teams is 485 miles The average distance to the future Midwest League teams is 474 miles8220;I8217;m not sure it has a huge impact on the Bowling Green team but it does make geographical sense in terms of travel for some of the other clubs8221; Brenner said 8220;We8217;ll still be affiliated with the Tampa Bay Rays We8217;ll still play 70 home games The bus will just go a different direction when we leave8221;According to SAL President Eric Krupa Bowling Green8217;s move is tied into Lake County8217;s interest in moving to the Midwest LeagueKrupa said the Lake County organization moved from Columbus Ga to suburban Cleveland in 2002 on the condition it would become a Midwest League clubBut Krupa said there were no reasonable opportunities for the SAL and Midwest League to swap teams Nor was there a partner club to join Lake County in the Midwest League which would allow both leagues to have an even number of teams8220;The situation kind of sat since 20028221; Krupa said 8220;The Lake County club has received annual variances to allow them to play another and another year in the SAL because there wasn8217;t really another opportunity that came up8220;Bowling Green then presented an opportunity where there was a little more geographic opportunity to realign two South Atlantic teams to the Midwest League That8217;s what was proposed and ultimately approved8221;Krupa said the SAL members approved the move Friday Neither he nor Brenner would comment on the specific voting resultsBrenner did say Bowling Green Pro Baseball abstained from voting8220;In the end whatever it is the job we do at the ballpark every day in the community remains unchanged regardless of what league we8217;re in8221; Brenner said 8220;That8217;s really the most important part of the overall experience for everyone8221;Brenner also said the Bowling Green Pro Baseball team should announce its nickname sometime in October Online voting for a nametheteam contest has closed and the organization is in the process of developing logosBrenner said more than 4000 votes were cast8220;We don8217;t want to announce a name until we have images to go with it8221; Brenner said 8220;We8217;re hard at work and getting ready to let everyone know8221;Get on the busApproximate mileage between Bowling Green and cities with Minor League Baseball teams in the South Atlantic League in which Bowling Green will play in 2009 and the Midwest
