ILikeVikes-84 0 Posted August 7, 2010 Hey Guys- I am going to make this short and sweet. I know this is not a good time to resign but that's what I am doing. My team is in such a hole and I my efforts to improve this team are not up to par. The past couple seasons I wasn't very active not because I wasn't interested but because I just didn't know what to do and when I did do something it didn't work out. The reason I didn't do this before the draft is because I wanted to see what I could do one more time. Since the draft ended I have sent out many trade offers and raelly had no takers. Sorry if they offended anyone but like I said I guess my efforts weren't good enough. The dynasty league format just got the best of me. Another reason is Chad (Horseman) got the best of me in trades. I really am sorry if this causes a disaster in keeping the fvmdl tradition alive. I really think/hope a month is enough time to find a new owner. It's been fun playing w/ you all and good luck this season! Jesse (DBF2004) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sparkky 0 Posted August 9, 2010 after thinking about this more, I think the guys would appreciate if you would go ahead and pay smitty and finish the year if we can't find another owner since you went ahead and drafted. a new owner would have most likely liked to have drafted for himself. just my opinion.

ILikeVikes-84 0 Posted August 9, 2010 I understand your opinion Sparrky but I am done. I have dealt w/ that horrid team long enough. I have done every think I can this offseason to try to make it better via draft and trades like I said I was unable to do anything that improved where I thought I could even win one game. Like I said all the best luck in finding a new owner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree 100%. I've been talking about this with others and we're all on the same page. I am going to disallow the trade he made for the time being as well because that will make it even harder to find an owner for this team. Bobby may be willing to take over Jesse's team if it comes to that.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparkky 0 Posted August 10, 2010 I hope it works out that we can find a replacement in time. I also think there is a lesson here that we absolutely DO NOT draft till everyone is paid up. "friends is friends, but business is business." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
