IBL honchos have not added any information clarifying the status of the IBL or its debts. Some mentions about a 2008 season have apparently been erased, though the site still lists games set for July 15th and 22nd and gives directions to ballparks.

Re: The seplling on the IBl website:

Just as we do when one of our good commenters points out a boner (which means something entirely differently at TMZ).
And why do you guys waste so much effort on the silly minutiae?
¡Viva Eladio!
