The GM Shuffle
« Reply #40 on: January 18, 2017, 02:10:26 PM »
Fantasy baseball leagues like our own FGM, sometimes have twists and turns that no one can anticipate. Our response to those twists and turns is often the tell tale sign whether the league is dealing from a source of strength or dealing from a source of impending failure.

FGM, ProFSL's original dynasty baseball league has been able to sustain itself because of our ability to be proactive and meet the needs of the league.  During the past week, we've had to deal with a couple of messy situations:  the sudden departure of the :MIL: GM and the "resurfacing" of a GM whom we thought had left ProFSL.

The challenge for Rick, and me, is how to rectify a given situation in a fair and just manner.  In this instance, we asked for some help from one of our newest members, Travis (soonerorlitigator).  Travis has agreed to fill the :MIL: vacancy so that we could offer Daniel the :TOR:, his former team.

I thought it was in everyone's best interest to get a more in depth explanation in this instance because we do not usually allow switching of teams.  However, we felt compelled to do all we could to reinstate Daniel as the :TOR: GM and because of Travis' compassion and understanding, we believe that these moves are in the best interests of all parties:  Daniel, Travis, and the entire league.  We hope you agree.

So please welcome the return of Daniel as the "new" GM of the :TOR: and Travis (soonerorligator) as the new GM of the :MIL:

Awesome!  Great job in working this out!!!  Special thanks to Travis for being understanding of the situation.  Daniel is a long time GM and its good to retain him.  Great job Flash and BHows in working something out to retain a long time GM.  Much respect.  :toth:

All credit goes to Ernie. He took the abuse and negotiated the deal.
Thanks Ernie!

I think you made good decision especially when Daniel has owned and built Toronto for good length time.

Rockies have a new GM
« Reply #46 on: February 01, 2017, 01:21:33 AM »
The Colorado Rockies have been searching for a reliable GM who will commit to the team on a long term basis.  We have all seen a variety of GMs come and go over the past three years.

Finally, it seems like the Rockies, and the league, have found a GM who is willing to restore order in Colorado and lead the team back to the playoffs.

Please welcome Art A. (Dirty_Sanchez00)as the new GM of the Rockies.  Art comes to FGM with the a lot experience and enthusiasm, and will be a definite asset to FGM.

Welcome to FGM! :toth:

Julio Aguilar/Getty ImagesJayden Daniels was selected by the Washington Commanders in the 2024 NFL Draft By Fernando Franco Puga  The Washington Commanders have received some very bad news. Jayden Daniels, who they picked with the 2nd overall pick in the 2024 Draft, may soon be banned from the NFL after violating a very important rule.   In the 2024 NFL Draft, several teams were in need of a top quarterback to bolster their offenses. With the 2nd overall pick, the Commanders decided to select Jayden Daniels, one of the best prospects at the position.  Daniels had a remarkable path through LSU, even breaking some of Joe Burrow’s records. However, the quarterback’s career is now in jeopardy after he admitted to breaking the league’s rules regarding gambling.   Jayden Daniels openly admits to violating the NFL’s gambling policy Worrying news has arrived in Washington today. Jayden Daniels, their 1st-round pick this year, has openly admitted to violating the NFL’s gambling policy, and his rookie season is in jeopardy.  NFL Draft: Jayden Daniels admits whether he'd like to play for the Washington Commanders SEE ALSO  NFL Draft: Jayden Daniels admits whether he'd like to play for the Washington Commanders  During a recent appearance on the “All Facts, No Brakes” podcast, Daniels revealed that he has a bet with Malik Nabers, the New York Giants‘ 6th overall pick, on who’s going to be this year’s NFL Offensive rookie.   “Man, he wasn’t supposed to tell nobody,” Daniels said about Nabers revealing the bet. “We got a little something going on. I mean, he put it out there, so it’s like I can’t say he cap.”  Keyshawn Johnson, host of the podcast, asked Daniels about the bet. The quarterback admitted that the wager for $10,000 is real, but he was clearly uncomfortable with the question.    Jayden Daniels Jayden Daniels with LSU “Going against him is gonna be fun,” Nabers said, via the New York Daily News. “We got a bet going for Rookie of the Year. Whoever loses gotta pay, I think it’s $10,000 cash.”  Nabers and Daniels were teammates at LSU. They are set to meet in at least two games in the upcoming season. However, this gamble could get them both banned from the NFL, as they are clearly violating the league’s gambling policy.  What does the NFL gambling policy says about betting? This situation will pose a huge challenge for the Commanders and the Giants. The league strictly prohibits players from engaging in any form of gambling related to the NFL, as it undermines the integrity of the game.  SEE ALSO  2024 NFL Draft picks by team: How many picks does each team have?  The policy explicitly prohibits ‘private wagers between teammates, family and friends, or others.’ This situation could land the two rookies in trouble, potentially resulting in a ban for the former LSU players.  SURVEY Should Jayden Daniels and Malik Nabers be banned over their bet?  Yes No ALREADY VOTED 1162 PEOPLE  Fernando Franco Puga Fernando Franco is an accomplished writer and sports journalist specializing in soccer, NFL, MLB, and MMA.
