It had to be done

[Delandis]

Sad to see you go, bro.

Good luck with everything going forward as you have the life that I wish for my children, doing what they love and experiencing the world.

I know you rubbed some people the wrong way (TWSS), but you are still ok with me. In my experience, a lot of things get lost in translation (namely intent) on a message board, so I feel for you a bit. You taught me a lot about of the subtleties of baseball and how it shows in OOTP and I appreciate that. Time heals all wounds, so hopefully it will someday soon mend the relationships between you and others and you can eventually be granted a chance at a triumphant return.

Mike I am not happy at all seeing you go... Hopefully at some point you will get the parole and comeback to the BLB... At least for me it won't be the same, you and Pat taught me a lot about baseball and if I got the 2 rings was because you stablish the pathway for me to drive on it...

You also put some rocks for me in that pathway to make me learn the "hard way" of this business.

Mantente en contacto hermano, no desaparezcas!

Definitely going to miss having you around. Like I said before, we shared a lot of the same sensibilities with regards to team building and whatnot. I will hold down the BLB analytics department in a manner not unlike Eazy E keeping NWA together post Ice Cube.

See you Mike... And yes, your finances rock, while mine are starting to drown the Kodiaks!

Mike , you were Soviet to my USA (yes im USA!). Gonna miss the rivalry we had though you generally were the constant and I was a bit more feast or famine.

Sure we bucked heads every so often, but I'm not 100% perfect either on certain items. At some point FC bucks head with everyone. Heck I even needed to take a 1+ season break , basically took a step back to
get some perspective on this whole league. Maybe Mike this happens on your end also. It really did help me out in the end and hope it shows.

The Ale isn't a sissy mans division for sure. Things can get heated. Won't speak for the rest of the BLB owners since sure we all have different personalities, but personally I enjoyed the rivalry and competition.

[Pat]

Adios Mike.

Without Mike asking me to Co-Gm that one season I might not have got the itch to BLB again.

For all Mike’s flaws, and we are all flawed, he raised the competition level which I always appreciate.

Not really interested in a back and forth but your account was never deactivated. You were removed from the BLB Owners group which revokes access to the owners forum and may have caused a temporary issue with PM's due to the BLB Owners group having a higher limit for stored PM's than the Regular Users group.

[Jake]

Mike, nothing else I can say but... you're right. I thought you were a real asshole.

But we did have some great negotiations. And I'm honored you mentioned me 6 months after I left. Good luck with everything.
