Tophat and Concorde Fire have joined with teams from Mars, Venus and Uranus for a new Universal league. Since all league games will be played at the new NTH Moon Landing Stadium, DA players will also be eligible. Current DA restrictions only pertain to Earth bound competition. Tryouts will take place at NASA headquarters as all players will have to pass a more stringent physical exam for space travel and space competition.
Also, heading will be banned as the Venetians don't have heads.
Tophat and Concorde Fire would like to thank their new shared corporate sponsor, Virgin Atlantic Space Travel, for the travel assistance.

Sure, exclude Pluto because it is no longer a planet, but the others I just don't get.... So much for reducing travel distance. Geesh!

Would the Space Station be used as the Team Hotel and do we all have to stay there? How would we calculate the coaches fees and per-diem. OMG per-diem would require all TMs be outfitted with scientific calculators right? Finally, I'm sure we get use Oxygen. My question is I know some folks are on a carb diet, a gluten free diet, etc. Would there be zero carb oxygen, or gluten free oxygen? What about flavored oxygen Yes, the food will be free from all known allergy particles known on Earth and throughout the Milky Way Galaxy. All TM's will be required to finish degrees in Aerospace Engineering, at their own expense, to participate. Coaches will be compensated $ 0.005 per mile of space travel. The space station will house participants and will be gender, racial , ethnic, religiously neutral.

I just don't see the need for it, given the two other leagues that offer Solar System Championships.

I want a Like button on this forum. This post alone deserves it! The thing that kind of looks like a thumbs up is the "like" button. It took me a few to figure out that was the right button. The first time I hit it I was not sure what it did and was hoping I wouldn't offend the person. Maybe it looks more obvious on the computer but on my phone it looks a little weird
