Everyone,

I am the owner of the former USA Pro team, the Alpine Golfers. We have accepted CollChuck's offer of a swap and will be moving here for season 15. I am Norwegian and this is my home region and the opportunity of moving here was too tempting for me to pass up.

I will copypaste a couple of paragraphs from my goodbye post in the US forum:

When I first bought the team back in season 2 Alpine was in the Western European A-league for 15 minutes or so before I sold back the team. I really wanted to be in that region, but after looking at the strength of leagues I decided to go for a USA team instead to get the best competition. As long as USA Pro was head and shoulders above the other Pro-leagues it was the right place to be.

Now I feel that the playing field is evening out, not completely though, USA is still the best, but its close enough for me to be able to defend a move to Western Europe when the opportunity presented itself like it did this season. I am very aware that some of you will see this as a wrong move on my side and will blast me, and my team, in the forums for the decision. I understand your view very well and you might be correct. I am very unsure if the decision is correct or not and it can easily be argued that my judgment has failed me.

I hope you respect my decision though. If anyone feels that I am the biggest loser on any side of the Atlantic feel free to PM me and let me know, or write it here if you think that is appropriate.



We are looking forward to being a part of the Western European Pro League in season 15!

You are lucky because WEPL is the best league to be in. I'm not sure how this will work out for Amsterdam though. Not sure if they are ready for USA.
Good luck to Alpine this season and my QB will see you in the league title game.

Thanks! I hope it will be a good league to a part of. I am not familiar with the teams here, and I really don' t know how we stack up.

Best of luck to you guys as well!
