Breaking News Retirement

It was a pleasure to play with you guys for the last 7 or so years, but I'm going to hang it up. I should be leaving the next owner with with a ton of young talent, good contract situations, a couple 1st round RFA's. It is SOOOOO tough for someone to come in without full knowledge of how to take advantage of all the rules. There were tons of times that you all contacted me to let me know I messed something up and I am grateful for that. I still don't really know what I'm doing lol.

I was on the fence the whole year. It was pretty frustrating knowing that I had the championship winning team (unless Deebo goes off tonight) if I would have won the tiebreaker for the 6th seed. I know its in the rules and it was voted on. Heck..I think I voted for it but I usually just go with the vibe and flow of everyone else. It is really unfortunate how it worked out. Even MFL had me ahead of Mike in the standings.

Good luck to all going forward!

WOW! Mike... you've been a great (very competitive) league-mate... it's going to be tough to see you go. Thank you for all you've done to contribute to the league over the 7 years you've played. I'm so grateful for all you've done.

Yah...this year you're like the Bengals... no one wanted to face you in the playoffs... and unfortunately, you just didn't make it in (probably like Joe Burrow & company as well!).

Blessings in your future endeavors!

Happy Retirement! Great competing against you.

Hey Commish, if you need another owner, I know someone who may be interested.

Sure! I don't think there's anyone else 'in the queue' waiting... go for it.

Mike,

Nobody in the league has ever given me a tougher time than your Bees (although Patrick's Swords are nipping on your heels with my dismal 5-12 record against them).

My Preds lost in the most bizzare ways to your Bees, time after time after time. In the end I have a a pathetic 3-15 record against your Bees (including losses in the first 10 games we played)! No matter what I did it felt inevitable your team would find a way to overcome. I both hate and respect the carnage you inflicted!

You had an impressive run. I'm both relieved and disappointed to see such a strong competitor retire, but I get it as I came very close to retiring before this season (though I will be back for 2025 as I want to see what I can do with Burt's 2nd overall pick!

Best of luck to you in the future, and much respect.

For Pred forums, I think I just need his name, email address, and user name. User name can be anything. For example, mine is Liquid Swords (with the space) and yours is Miners.

If you have Jim or Dale's phone number, text them Brian's info - they can change the ownership details on MFL. He will just need to create a login for MFL, then one of the two can send him an email invite

Enjoy - I think it might be the earliest pick I've ever had in Frenzy. I am not at all upset, as I am very happy to have Ladd McConkey instead.

Ladd looks like a WR1 for 2025, on a rookie contract. I would have taken him had I not traded the pick.
