ABA ADDS ANOTHER TEXAS TEAM

Indianapolis, IN. The American Basketball Association (ABA) today announced that it has added a team in Universal City TX for the upcoming season. "Our Southwest Division growing rapidly and is one of the strongest in the ABA," stated ABA co-founder Joe Newman. "And the addition of Adam E. Salyer and his Seraphim professional team should be a fabulous addition. He is quite a man."

Growing up, Salyers excelled in track becoming district MVP in Louisiana. "No matter how well I did in track, basketball was the sport I always loved," added Salyer. "It truly dug at the very soul of me. I played everywhere I could find."

Salyers joined the military and traveled to 49 states and 5 countries, but his 14 year career was cut short by injuries including an incident that left him in a wheel chair with a prognosis that he would never walk again. "I would not accept defeat though. With hard work, extensive rehab, determination and God, I was able to walk again after 15 surgeries and my wife at my side."

"So, I could have accepted my disabilities by sitting but it could not define me. I went to school, got my degree and started my professional career. I have served two full terms on the City Council and am currently running for Mayor. I am a professional singer, stand-up comedian, emcee/host, film actor, producer, author and am owner of RZR Comics as well as a motivational speaker."

"I look forward to working with all involved with the ABA and thank them for giving me this huge opportunity." Woodrow Wilson once said, "Live a life of effort, persevere in that effort, but live a life of your own." "This is a dream come true."
