Know your GM
« on: April 30, 2012, 06:10:49 PM »
Since we've had a lot of turnover since the last time we did one of these, I would like each GM to say something about themselves. It seemed to work the last time we did it, so I'll give it another go. Would be nice if we got 100% participation.

About me...

My name is Dan (if you didn't notice by my handle). Love the Mets, baseball, and when Jake's mom gives me a freebee on my birthday and/or Christmas. Favorite current player is Josh Hamilton, a close second is Billy Butler. Favorite all-time player Lenny Dykstra, Keith Hernandez is a close second.

Currently I landscape for work, after working in TV for 8 years, and just got accepted into a Graduate program for Occupational Therapy. Welcomed my first child into this world this past December, name is Statham, and is the best thing ever.

My name is Chris.  I'm a big Philly sports fan.  Thank god for the Phillies winning it all as I'd really be in the crazy house by now!  I can't really say anything witty about Jake's mom.  Growing up I was a big Jose Canseco fan in the bash brother days.  I idolized Schmidt and Carlton back in the day.  I'm a big fan of anyone who plays the game hard nowadays.

I work as an Operations Manager in the call center business.  I have been doing it since moving to Florida from New Jersey nine years ago.  I really would like to go into business for myself with something on the internet.

We have had a lot of turnover?  BTW, the Rockies team history needs updated.

My name is Colby, and I love the Buccos.  That should have been obvious.  Favorite player of all-time is Nolan Ryan.  Favorite Bucco is Doug Drabek.  I am amazed at what pitchers can do.  I am actually a bigger football fan, but love fantasy baseball much more.  Plus, it is easier to be a Steelers fan than a Pirates fan!  Contrary to popular belief, I do not work for ProFSL.  Like someone else in this league (hint, he is a GM in the NL West), I am an Actuary, and I work in the Healthcare sector.

A lot of turnover since the last time we did one of these...I believe we did it in 2010...it's been a while, and I'd estimate 40%, maybe under - but close - to that turnover. We've had 3 Mets and Angels GMs since we did this last.

Ahh, gotcha... I assumed we did it last year.  We have had little turnover in the past year.

I'm Jake Douglas, Nationals owner, previously Angels.

26 years old, grocery manager for a Midwest grocery chain (40 stores, roughly). Two daughters, ages 3 and 2, with our next due in August.

I enjoy video games, gin and tonics, smacking Dan's mom for only making me $10 a night on the street, and making fun of people.

Favorite teams are the White Sox, Spurs, and Arizona Cardinals.

Hey guys,

My name is Eric aka "Ernie" (Corey gave that nickname) or "EJ" and a huge sports nut like everybody on here. I am a Plant Operator making clean burning diesel fuel as well as jet fuel. I am getting married in October who I have been with for the past 4 years.

I was born in the oil field plains of North Dakota and moved to Colorado about almost 5 years ago. My teams are :CAR: :BOS: :Kansas: :COL: :COL-NHL: :NorthDakota: and :Liverpool:

Prob my favorite player when I was young was Vince Carter since I played basketball. Baseball and football pretty much take the cake, but since moving to Colorado I have become more accustomed to hockey as well! Pedro Martinez, Dustin Pedroia, and Troy Tulowitzki are prob my fav players (Ironic that both are on my team :thumbsup: )

Oh cant forget Jon Beason!!!

I'm Nick, im in high school. Live in North carolina, although im originally from denmark. I support all the carolina teams (it's been rough for a few years). I've become a big braves fan since NC is deprived of an MLB team (im left to go watch single A baseball here, which i suppose is better than nothing). Chipper Jones is definitely my favorite player. But yea, im just a huge sports, and fantasy sports, junkie... there's not a sport i wont watch
