My mind immediately jumped to either Dan or Rob, both of whom I would strongly support.

Ben, not to disrespect you, or anyone else, but I know you don't have the time on your plate at this time or else you would be a great candidate.  Please let me know if you would like to be considered.

You were on the EC before... this is the commish role which take care of all executive decisions, turnover, profile fields, league history, allstar voting, etc...

Sad to see you step down Colby, you were doing such a good job. Dan/Rob/Ben are all good choices and the league should be in good hands either way.

I would not have the time to commit... my free time comes in spurts, but not consistently throughout the year.

Dunno if I have time for all that with a kid on the way... would be more than happy to do most of that... I would be more than willing to be a consistent executive figure. I think (as I have noticed in the draft) there isn't a definite hierarchy. There is you, then everyone else. I think the commish's prime duties are to keep the league moving forward in a fair and straight forward manner. I'm not to sure I would want the tasks of profile fields (dunno what that is), league history, and the etc...executive decisions, turnover, and so on I am all well and good with.

If not for a minimal understanding of the best movie ever made (Major League) and the fact he once threw at his own kid at a father-son game, Dan Wood would (how much wood would a...) make a fine commish.....All kidding aside, the league will be in great hands with any of the above-mentioned candidates, but since Dan stepped to the dish first, he has my vote  :winner:

Mike you also left out that I lead the league in most offensive categories, including nose hair.

  • Daddy: If i have 10 top level AA prospects each in the top 10 of the franchise vs one middle of the road pitcher like Cal Quantrill (or pick a guy) which one of those two packages are more valuable?

  • Daddy: Also... Ive got a nice private island full of beautiful women to sell you. Pay me upfront and i will send you its coordinates. We call it the Virgin Daddy Islands. $5k reserves it for your future.

  • dbreer23: Take two to tango, though. Most owners with adequate or surplus SP aren't interested in prospects as they're trying to win now.
    Yesterday at 02:42:54 PM
  • Daddy: Agreed. But most does not equal all.
    Yesterday at 02:45:09 PM
  • Braves155: My issue in LIVE currently is having Strider/Alcantara/Giolito all on the long shelf, so I am more retooling than rebuilding
    Yesterday at 02:46:48 PM
  • Daddy: Also agreed. Top quality pitching probably means not much depth. A few injuries can challenge you. Pitching other than top end pitching has been devalued in fantasy. Everyone wants the stud.
    Yesterday at 02:49:24 PM
  • Braves155: But I myself could use some time on a nudie island with some hot women
    Yesterday at 02:49:45 PM
  • Daddy: I here to tell you that ALL major league pitching is good pitching. A great hitter beats a terrible pitcher just 3 out of 10 times. Which means the worst pitchers > the greatest hitters.

  • Brent: He had that view b/c of his father who was a blackjack dealer in Vegas.
    Yesterday at 04:35:28 PM
  • Daddy: Yes @Brent!! That is it exactly. Pitching is the house & it always wins in the end.

  • Braves155: The problem with the minors is not the system as a whole, it is some Farm Systems are more 'elite' at being able to produce talent than others. If you look across MLB teams you can pretty easily tell the great systems from the weaker systems and talent development
    Yesterday at 05:57:14 PM
  • Braves155: With regard to pitching in the Minors...there is  method to the madness. It is all about what you make of it tho. I agree that it can seem certain type arms in the minors are a dime a dozen
    Yesterday at 06:02:39 PM
  • Daddy: Mr Braves you are my guy. There isnt anything wrong with minor league studs or flops. I get it in REAL baseball.
    Yesterday at 06:20:28 PM
  • Daddy: This is fantasy baseball. We dont generate revenue selling prospects and merchandising. Our top farms dont get a write up in Sports Illustrated.
