I bailed out...

I signed up, and had no clue on the whacked out scoring, and it was my fault for not looking at that and just assuming he was using the normal scoring everyone else in the free world uses, so when I drafted, my draft was pretty much screwed. I didn't even attend the draft, I had to autodraft, and set my prerankings.

I tried to stick it out for 2 or 3 weeks, but what I thought was going to happen did happen, and then between that, and some real world responsibilities, I just haven't bothered to do anything with the team. There's no one worth a damm to pick up to fix it, my draft was all messed up, and honestly, I just figured at season's end, I'd just not return. I'm in a work league, and a old high scool buddy's league, one on NFL, one on ESPN, and those have apps available for easy use too, Yahoo doesn't have such app, and it was actually more difficult to keep up with Yahoo anyway. I almost needed computer access, and even though I'm on a computer all day long at work, fantasy sports sites are blocked from our server. So apps on my phone make it about 200% easier. Even though the last reason was the smallest of the reasons, but still.

Then Teezy offers me some insanely lopsided trade going his way, and I declined it, and then he posted on the league forum about "inactive owners"... then Outlaw replied to that, at which point I just thought it was best to step down now.

Easy there guys..no need to get in a whizzing contest over fantasy football.

It's a new league, DA will get the kinks worked out. MRoble is a good owner in the other leagues I've been in with him. Don't tar and feather him over this.

Any owner who turns down a trade shouldn't get called out for it..and one who has a bad team is wise to not make any trades, especially if he is cashing in his chips.

And that makes you a good commissioner.

Keep up the good work

I don't understand the complain about the scoring. I looked at it prior to the draft and see that it was QB heavy. Unfortunately for me, I drafted 14th and the best QB available was Cam Newton. I selected him and he is having a terrible year, and thus, my team stinks. However, in that it is a Keeper league, I will just try to improve for next year.

it took me by surprise that he blamed me also since he felt it was a bad offer, but u never send ur best offer at first. also i wrote that on message board then i offered the trade he made it seem that since he rejected i wrote that on the message board. It just seemed he wanted to put blame on everything else besides jst saying he didnt like it and didnt want to play anymore.

Don't sweat it. i offered my services to him as an assistant GM before the draft started and never heard back from him.
