The Israel Baseball League website has not been a source of information in the troubled months that followed the controversial end of the first season The last message posted by founder Larry Baras was dated August 31st, and ignored Our Man Elli in Israel's exclusive investigative report three days earlier that was already stirring controversy and would soon open the floodgates for a tsunami of complaints and scandal that culminated with Thursday's resignations of the league's respected commissioner and advisory board members (henceforth to be refered to as The IBL 10).
But while Baras remains unavailable for comment, someone is home, working behind the scenes at the IBL website. As of this morning, mention of The IBL 10 has been deleted has been deleted from the IBL site.

Now the legacy of that toy is haunting Mega Brands, the Canadian firm that purchased Rose Art.
Mega Brands officials allege in a lawsuit that Jeffrey and Lawrence Rosen -- the brothers who sold them Rose Art, then led that division after the merger -- didn't fix the problems with the dangerous toy in part because they didn't want to jeopardize personal multimillion-dollar payouts tied to profit targets.
Kenny Sweet Jr., a suburban Seattle toddler, died, and at least 27 other children suffered serious intestinal injuries after swallowing tiny magnets that fell out of Magnetix toys.
