Stepping Down
« on: July 12, 2012, 12:19:42 PM »
Effective fairly immediately I will be stepping down as the commish of FGM. It pains me to do so, but due to factors outside of the fantasy realm, I just don't have it in me to give the site the proper nurture it deserves. I am sure Colby will find a more than suitable replacement.

I would like to thank Dan for the great deal of time and hard work he put in as Commissioner.

Sad to see you step down DW, you are still playing in the league right?

I believe, over PM, that Dan is staying with his leagues and just playing as a GM.  I surely hope so and thank Dan for his job as Commissioner for the past year.  Over FGM's history, Dan has spent about two years on the EC with over half that as Commissioner.  I would like to thank him for the great job he has done to keep this #1 league at the top.  While I could certainly take it back over, I would prefer to focus my Commissioner abilities on creating new leagues that have less administrative burdens.

Howe, I will be staying on as the GM of the Reds, as well as a member of the RC,TC, and EC. But, with the current time constraints between work, graduate school, infant son, and watching the occasional movie, I cannot give the job as commissioner the proper amount of time and effort it needs and deserves. Daily visits to the site have become increasingly more difficult, and before it becomes problematic, I figured it best that we get someone in here who does have the time that the title requires.

    Yesterday at 03:09:09 PM
  • Daddy: Youve seen them? We havent completely structured all that yet. Weve got expansion and other factors that the real Wolves dont face.
    Yesterday at 03:39:40 PM
  • Daddy: My comment on the real Wolves are if they win a chip then there is no such things as bad contracts. The point of all contracts are to win Championships.

    Yesterday at 07:46:32 PM
  • STLBlues91: Yeah had to just check. So a deadline to select the keepers. Then a few days for the selection. Me and Seattle alternate picks?
    Yesterday at 07:47:47 PM
  • Daddy: The expansion draft is LIVE alternating picks until both teams have 15 players like the NBA All Star teams get picked.

  • Daddy: Can you imagine a league(s).  Where EVERY player that becomes a professional has value.. and 30-32 teams have 30-32 different people are actively determining that value?
    Today at 01:46:50 AM
  • Daddy: Where you dont wait for trades to happen on scoring sites or SS updates and the only thing asked of you is to run your own franchise and see how good you are. On an EVEN playing field.
    Today at 01:48:59 AM
  • Daddy: Its already near impossible to get into NFL LIVE. We had to start up a 64 team league just to accommodate the waiting list. True Story.
    Today at 01:55:29 AM
  • Daddy: Once full. NBA, NHL, & NCAAs will be very difficult to get into. People dont just walk away from LIVE often and when they do... They usually want back in. Legit dont miss your team in your sports. Get them while you can.
