Never easy to say good bye but it’s come time for me to step away from the league. The Nets are too good and deserve to have a GM thats willing to give them the love they need. I went pretty much the entire last season without making lineup changes or scouting, which is not how I like to manage.
I believe I’ve hit my wall with sim sports games and don’t play any of them any more and instead have gone back to video games (2k and Madden). It’s been a fun ride and, as always, there’s a chance I come back, but for now I will be bowing out.
Much love and good luck to everyone!

Re: Stepping Away
You've been such a pillar of the CSL and just a pleasure to interact with on here. Really sad to see you step down. Selfishly, I hope you get the itch to come back in a season or two, but even if you don't, please make sure to check in once in a while

Re: Stepping Away
The greatest guy in league history. Prototype friendly american everybody at work talks about (they dont believe me when I tell them at work that Im not used to friendly americans lol). You really the guy I would love to live in a neighborhood with. I can see why you step down but I fully hope and believe you will come back.
