All,

I will not play next year, these are the reasons in order.

1. During the middle of an auction period, someone discovered that Shuan Alexander was not an available player.  The correct thing to do would be to add him to the next round of auction becuase several teams could not bid on him, instead someone picked him up for a buck (don't care who he is, that's not the point).
2. At one of the most important times of the fantasy football seasons, the commissioner goes on a cruise!  This would be different if this was one league, but he is commissioner for what looks like 17 leagues.  This again would not be so bad if he was not getting paid to manage these.
3. There was a controversy during week 2, ah hurricane postponed the Bal-Hou game, Ahmed decided to allow people to add teams to there roster, not dropping anyone, therefore not having to deal with a bye week.  Funny the only team that this helped was Ahmed's.
4.Week 10, the Shinning played Ryan Torain on Thursday, drops him and picks someone up on Saturday, and still got the points from Thursday.  Ahmed did nothing.

The biggest reason I am not returning is the fact that Ahmed is getting paid over $200-$300 in this league alone (multiply that by 17, you could pay for a cruise!).  The worst thing about it is that he is playing in these leagues!  I am and have been a commissioner in leagues and have never made it into a greedy adventure.  I would not have played this year, but I was runner up last year, thought that was the correct thing to do.

Rude, you are a punk for quitting before the end of the season.

Goodbye and good luck,
Jerral

It was great to have you Jerral.  You were a good owner.  Good luck in all your ventures.

Couldn't DISAGREE MORE with Jerral on this league and Ahmed as Commish. Being a Commish is tough and requires sometimes tough, unpopular decisions....As for the vacation and $$, those are 2 non-football related issues that don't hold any water !!!!

Keep up the good work Commish !!!!

I also couldn't AGREE MORE with Jerral on Rude...Seems Josh pisses off 1 or 2 owners (or more) in just about every league he plays in !!!!

Good Luck Jerral !!!!

Thanks Jerral I feel the same about you!

I didn't quit before the end of the season.  This wasn't the only league my lineup wasn't set in, the other one i'm a playoff team in, no one asked why my lineups weren't set if you go look.  I was on the site trying to participate on making my team better up until the end.

Mitch, look in a mirror.  Glad I won't have to deal with you in any leagues next year.

Good luck with your leagues Ahmed.  I'm not returning to this site anymore, I've set my lineup for the next three weeks, if someone gets hurt you can either leave them in or take them out, it really doesn't matter to me anymore.

I'll still be on the DieHards board until week 16 if you need something.

To Josh the Quitter...

I say 'Amen' !!!! (as do a lot of other owners!!!)

and show a little class and integrity, which for you we know is hard to do, and change back your team name !!!

You're not the Commish of this league....(thank God)
