     The Phoenix Firebrands are in negotiations to relocate to
Austin, TX, for the '97 season, according to today's ARIZONA
REPUBLIC.  The Firebrands and Austin city officials have worked
out a plan which "provides for an unusual public-private venture
to build" an $18M, 12,000 seat stadium on city parkland.  A study
concluded the team could draw up to 450,000 fans and bring about
$9M to the city's economy (Bob Eger, ARIZONA REPUBLIC, 3/24).
