I resign.
I have simply not enjoyed this league since the Ohtani veto, and the problems that it presented both in terms of the governance of this league, and also in terms of interpersonal relationships. It has been made very clear to me that some elements in this league, with considerable power, do not want me here. Based on my doubt that this situation will improve, my concerns about league governance, my fear that my continued insistence on change will fracture an already fractured league, my fear that my continued insistence on change will harm my friendship with my best friend, Kyler, a desire to spend less time at work distracted, spend more time on my DFS pursuits, and more time with my wonderful girlfriend, I resign. However, to be frank, this resignation is largely based on my desire to prove that I am not the league cancer that some have deemed me to be. I will resign before I complete a self-fulfilling prophecy.
I want to specifically, sincerely, and profusely, apologize to Bill. In a last gasp attempt to rededicate myself to this league, I over zealously pursued my potential rights to Fernando Tatis Jr. It pushed him over the edge of resignation, which I knew he was already considering. I should have known better, but I was blinded by misplaced anger and frustration. I begged him to return to the league. Fortunately, although likely not due to my begging, he has decided to return. It is a relief that I leave here with no resignation blood on my hands. Good luck to you Bill, and sorry. Best of luck to you going forward.
To the haters, and to anyone who I have rubbed the wrong way, I am easily misunderstood. I assure you my heart was always in the right place, or at least not in the bad place that you thought it might be.
To the many owners I have gotten along great with during my time here, send me a PM with the best way to stay in touch. I love talking about fantasy, with all of you, and would love to continue to do so.
To the LM's, thank you for the opportunity, and good luck going forward.
For everyone's sake, I hope that this league endures through this tough time. Sincerely, good luck.
