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!

Wanna take Toronto huh?  <BAD MOVE> Tampa is here to crush your hopes and dreams son.  My sting Rays are going to hurt the AL East this season.

PS:  Taking the Brewers was ingenious.  He foresaw the Devil Ray rising!

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:

  • TheGOAT: @Daddy, when will NBA Live be in full swing?

    Today at 08:09:37 PM
  • Daddy: @TheGoat starting two leagues next month. NBA could be ready by the upcoming season.
    Today at 08:10:17 PM
