The Informant
Welcome to the home of the Informant, Pbstar's News & Rumors page, updated every whenever we feel like it. All of the news & rumor here is for entertainment purposes only. The Informant will never lie, but many of the items discussed here are still rumor and speculation.
 We're hearing a lot of rumors these days, including a possible split among the NXL franchise owners, that will have 5 of the original 10 NXL teams absent from a special event being put on next month for the sole purpose of putting a new Xball show on ESPN this fall.
Reportedly, Aftershock, Trauma, Ironmen, Legacy, and the Assassins have made the choice not to attend this event.
