Calgary hires a heavy hitter
« on: March 16, 2017, 03:08:11 PM »
JF had to leave us due to time constraints.  Don't worry, Dad is still with us in Buffalo...

I am excited to introduce SlackJack as our new GM in Calgary!  I've been playing in BackYard for a couple seasons now and Jack has been the lifeblood of that league since I've been around.  Always wheeling and dealing trying to improve his squad.  He impressed me with his pragmatic trade offers.  I can't recall if we've come together on anything, but the back and forth has been fun.  Anyway, Jack is the #1 team in BY now, and is coming off a championship there last season (the first to win one over Tony...).  For the first time ever, I actually courted someone to fill a vacancy as I want to see a successful retread in Calgary. 

So, please join me in welcoming SlackJack to the league!  Best of luck to you. 

Cally - meet your future rival in the Canada division - haha.

- Jack I still need your Fantrax ID to get you access to your team.

We're gonna have a hell of a bidding war for top free agents between Calgary and Vegas the way Slack has been cleaning cap space! Should be interesting, haha

  • BayAreaBallers: my only qualms is what is the method to pay. i dont wanan havta make another money account like league safe
    Yesterday at 08:04:39 PM
  • Daddy: It uses the LIVE scoring engine. Otherwise its a completely different baseball option then LIVE, FGM, or Armchair.
    Yesterday at 08:05:26 PM
  • Daddy: I think its thru fantrax but its next season so he has time to sort that out.
