Drewkid, I've to tell you this honestly before it may happen. If your power HB is on the roster tomorrow I'll try to trade for him. I can cut my lv.1 players at Day 48.

Drew said it and summed it best, Texasholic you did your people dirty.
Whether you had intended to or not.
The mistakes were compounded by the fact you never manned up and stopped it took the hit yourself and did what wasbest for the whole group.
That is a pure reflection of character and in this intstance you failed but worse, didnt do what it would take to make it right.
That is why there is so much venom and when trusts are broken it takes lots of work to heal the wound and you broke trust with a community.
More so you are now the posterchild for Bad owner GLB so you will be held up as an example.
Now I am sure you didnt mean to get here but life is about descisons and what happens after......
There it is.
I hope you grow because this whole thing took the fun out the season for alot of folks and thats why we are on it ...

And I have to inform you that I'll try to trade for one of your players tomorrow (Day 48) if they are on the roster. (SS maybe)

I appreciate it Odor. My whole thing with this was TexasHolic robbed his agents of there offseason opportunity to select a position that worked for them and their players. At least with this I can make sure my player is going to a good team with a good owner.

If the trade happens tomorrow (I don't know, I just PM Texasholic1041 to hold on your players), I'll renegotiate both of your contracts ($200,000.00/1yr) if you want to stay (I'll bring you to playoff this season for sure), and you can ask me to cut your players anytime if you want to go to other teams.

From another thread in one of the guy's other league forums:

There it is. I'm done and ready to move on. Thanks again for giving me a shot on your team Odor, and for giving me players repeated chance to embarrass this clown's team in the future.

I sent the trade offer (350K for SS) right after mid-night and hope Austin Stampede will accept.

I believe there is only one good owner in GLB, and you'll know who "he" is after you own a team for 10 seasons. Sometimes People make bad decisions when they are under pressure or going through severe life change. I made some bad decision too. I hurt someone before too. And I hope those experience might make me a better owner someday.

Let's move on and refocus at this season
