I vote for Bhows as GM for L.A Dodgers

No disrespect at all to any of the other applicants, I just think this is the best way for the league to proceed going forward.

I first saw that I needed to post my qualifications at about 4 this afternoon. Since then I 've been trying to formulate a plan but my mind went to race mode and all I can come up with is this:
I joined the community in the fall of 2009 as the White Sox GM. Every time you hear Dan Wood mention G. Beckham think of me. Epic  arguments.
Around Christmas of that year Jon Asher fell on some hard times so I was persuaded to take over Dynasty. Months later Jon recouped and I relinquished the Commishionership. Dynasty went on to be a viable league on ProFSL until, well, I don't know what happened.
From there I started Old School, a viable alternative to the rigors of the FGM contract league. I ran it for it's first two years and it's still on ProFSL ran by the capable hands of Teton.
Even now I handle the ProFSL rosters on Wildcard BB.
The point of all this long -winded text is that I don't do this part way. I don't think my dedication is in question bt it's all i have.This is my hobby, my relaxation and that's how I want to be judged. Not just to "right a wrong"
Thank you for your consideration

My vote is for MTK. He has done wonders with Seattle in Moneyball. Not to take anything away from the others but I see him as the best candidate.

I think both MTK and Bhows are qualified for the position. With that being said my vote goes to MTK. From what I have seen he's a very smart owner and very active. No disrespect to the other owners as I think all were good candidates.

BHows = 2 :TB: :PIT:
MTK = 2 :KC: :BAL:

It's like a 7-game series that is now down to 3 (votes)...

Joe seems like a quality candidate, but MTK and BHows are more of a known quantity being quality former members in the league.  I think both are deserving, but I'll give the edge to BHows based on his leadership contributions.  I'd be happy to nominate MTK for another opening if he's interested.

BHows = 3 :TB: :PIT: :MIL:
MTK = 2 :KC: :BAL:

MTK needs to win two straight votes in order to get the Dodgers.  Dan Wood and Roy are the determining factors here.

I'm gonna go with Rick on this one. I think Aubrey is a fantastic GM and would really like if he managed to rejoin the FGM community should another opportunity present itself.

Roy's vote is not needed as BHows wins the :LAD: Dodgers GM job.

Well I would be lieing if I said that I wasn't a little disappointed with the outcome and as I slip to 0-3 in my bid to rejoin FGM, but I'm sure Rick will do a fine job and the Dodgers have the talent to win it all this year. For those of y'all who did vote for me, I would like to personally thank y'all, it means a lot. I wish all of FGM the best of luck this year.

  • indiansnation: Giants To Sign Blake Snell March 18th, 2024 at 8:45pm CST • By Anthony Franco 8:45pm: Snell receives a $15MM salary for the upcoming season and has a $17MM signing bonus that will not be paid until 2026, reports Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle (on X). That indicates he’ll be deciding on whether to opt out of a $30MM salary next winter, although the delayed date on the payment of the bonus reduces the team’s short-term commitment.  8:23pm: Blake Snell is in agreement with the Giants on a two-year, $62MM contract that allows him to opt out after the upcoming season, reports Jon Heyman of the New York Post (X link). San Francisco adds the defending NL Cy Young winner to the top of a staff that also includes last year’s runner-up, Logan Webb.  ADVERTISEMENT
