And run this for 2014? Preferably you have some experience either assisting GIK or as a long time participant. I'll be happy to help where I can but have too many time constraints to run it myself. GIK is fine but has too much on his plate at this time.
Before we do team selection we have to have a commissioner. And the Dolphins get raffled off since almost all of the regulars want the Dolphins
Ick. Kudo's if anyone wants to step in and pull this off last minute. Thought things were too quiet on the GML front.
I wish I could do it (commissioner), but my (in)ability to check in with any regularity during work hours pretty much excludes me.
Stay off Facebook n watching mediocre basketball teams n do it Matt, we need you Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk
I'll do it! Thought about it long enough today Boik... I'll do it. I'm also not going to take a team so that I can strictly focus on being the league commissioner and remain impartial and unbiased (although bribes will always be welcome, monetary bribes only). Hopefully there are still enough people interested. I'll start the team selection thread ASAP... as soon as we can get the sub forum created i guess, or maybe we don't need it for just one thread that we can post here. I'll also PM everyone that I can think of to generate interest.
It was not a joke. GIK is fine but had too much on his plate to run the league this year. Paul is stepping up to handle commish duties despite having a family and work like everyone else. FYI: Anyone who wants to help Paul with things like updating free agency bids etc Im sure he will appreciate it. Also please extra diligent in keeping draft choices and trade records accurate. GIK always had Mach and others helping him. Not sure if Paul will have that.
GIK was smart in that he had a core group of guys as the committee to help out with the draft and such. I plan on doing the same to spread the love. I'll definitely need help with free agency too... we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. Lets just hope we get the league filled out with 32 teams for now.
I dont think finding 32 teams has ever been an issue. Finding 32 good GM's...thats another story. But the core group is still here so I think we'll be ok.
"The rest of the teams with tiebreakers will be handed out by a secret formula comprised of seniority / active participation in the past etc" ^^^^ This is gonna be an ideal commish IMO. GIK was always great, just sometimes his co peeps struggled We couldn't of had a better guy step up from an all around standpoint, love the Dolphins idea by the way. (Is their something on my nose?) Also sign me up to help with Free Agent punters.
I am returning this year and can help in any way! I haven't had time in a couple of years but am going to have a pretty boring winter....
Welcome back. On behalf of all of us, as an embracing thank you for returning to the league, we're rewarding you with the highly coveted Patriots.
Awesome. My First move as Owner is to Promote Tom Brady and Bill Belicheat to our Heads of International scouting. They will be working from our remote office in Greenland!
I will be returning as vengeful odins co-gm. Although don't tell him, I haven't gave him the good news yet.
Just in... twitter reports that after mulling the job over, Paul has decided to return to the Patriots fan board with a promotion to Manager of Tom Bradys Dick Pics. Dolphins let down yet again.
