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

  • Jon: daddy, your the only game in town now for CFB on the board.  I removed Fansville as i decided i am not giving any more money to Fantrax for premium settings.  My leagues are free

  • Braves155: MLB LIVE :NYY: has OF for trade looking for INF/pitching
    April 21, 2024, 01:51:13 PM
  • Daddy: Its always better for the site to have at least 2 leagues for each sport. However @Jon i understand the decision.
    April 21, 2024, 01:53:02 PM
  • Daddy: Fantrax fees do get expensive. Its like $110-$120 per league per year and when its all out of your own pocket and you do most of the work, its hard to find value in that.
    April 21, 2024, 01:55:06 PM
