I forget the date you started and always forget Jannik Hansen)... you made like a star and supernova’d out pretty quickly after that oh god... last time I try to help a concerned GM . To be honest I’m not one of the ones that started when the league started. But, I sure as $&!# went supernova back in the day before I was ‘perma-banned’. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sharpshooter 8,265 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 I’m old enough to be some of these GM’s dad. And friendly enough with their mom’s to have made it a possibility. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I took on the SJS first but as a replacement GM, "RQ'd" and came back as the Rangers, "RQ'd" again and realized I was being crabby and apologized and rejoined before a new GM was hired. Been here ever since. Love the league, love the people, love my team. Edited March 3 by Primal Optimist Typos 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think I got here after Romo, seems to me he was here when I got here, that Mike took overSJS from me, so he came in after me, OH and I just remembered Sharpshooter recruited me out of Canucks Talk! Before the nuclear option happened with his account, lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post Primal Optimist 5,170 Posted March 3 Popular Post Share Posted March 3 (edited) TheMinister is a great guy, he's gone a little quiet lately, but likely busy and as was said, staying out of the fracas. I don't blame him, I was pretty loud to him at stupid things I don't remember about, oh hey, how the league was going, lol. I feel in reminiscing that I owe you all an apology for historical drama. I have since come to realize the error of my style. Also, I have a good therapist now. Rofl. Edit: a large part too is the incredible time sink I learned it is to try to manage a league when I experienced the EKL. It is a lot on the best days, the worst ones must be horrible. Here's to more great days ahead! Edited March 3 by Primal Optimist 2 1 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

canuck2xtreme 5,641 Posted March 3 Author Share Posted March 3 Just now, lethunder said: Maybe this is your year! Doubtful. Too Canuck heavy in key areas. It's always been my Achilles heel. My team is built solid enough, but our improvement must come from within. If Petey and co. can get it figured out in the next few years, with Petey, Bo and Demko, I'll be in good shape. Building strong youth and depth everywhere else. Trust the process. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If memory serves correct it was nucksrule420 (give it take on spelling) maybe too much 420, and not enough ‘rule’? 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azzy 692 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 All this talk about OGs and you forgot the guy who holds the GML record for most teams GMed, and most times quit (you have some catching up to do @Crabby). My signature move is to set up a good team and as soon as I leave, all the vets decline instantly leading to years of rebuilding... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
luckylager 27,489 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 Can we have a new rule? No rule changes or quitting mid season. Deal? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
