Geoff from Facebook’s APBA Football is proposing something pretty exciting for APBA gridiron fans… a 2013 convention geared around APBA Football at the home of the Pro Football Hall Fame. “FOOTBALL CONVENTION 2013: OK, gang. I’m within a few days of pulling the trigger on a nice little venue in…
My laptop just suffered a hard drive crash. I guess it’s the computer gods exacting vengeance on an IT person such as myself. I’m still in the process of getting the data off my old hard drive (easier said than done). Fortunately, I didn’t have to worry about my APBA…
As some of you know, the APBA Company has recently withdrew official support of the APBA- Between the Lines forum hosted on the Delphi Forums site. The popular forum needed a new moderator. Enter Kevin Cluff. Kevin stepped up to the plate and assumed the responsibilities of maintaining ABTL…
