Gigrant, I knew I have played in a few leagues with you. You are great owner and have had fun playing with you. I hope you come back but support you no matter what.

holding up the leagues isn't fair to everyone else. if a replacement owner isn't found by the end of today i will get to work on loading teams and having them approved by the end of the weekend. i appreciate the kind words, guys. seeing some familiar names in the posts reminds me of the good folks we have in the WIS leagues. this week was a slow melt-down after several very challenging weeks before it. i'd be selfish and just disappear for a bit, but the guilt over something like that isn't going to make me feel any better. and like i said, it isn't fair for everyone else. i am indeed sorry for causing some drama.

oz - please sitemail me tonight and let me know if you have an acceptable replacement (not just a warm body). if not i'll start on my side.

I appreciate your forthrightness on this gigrant. In the current climate, when so many lives are being shaken in so many ways, all of us know people who have been disproportionately impacted. I wish you the best with whatever you are facing, and I wish all of us the extra 10% patience and empathy that I know we all wish we had all the time.

Will do — thanks gigrant. And no worries — as many have said, things are tough right now in so many different ways. It's on us to support each other in whatever way we can. It's also clear by the reactions of the people who've responded since yesterday, and my own interactions with you before this in leagues, that you're a good owner who just has had some easily justifiable stress recently. We'd love to welcome you back — I'll send over a sitemail tonight if no one else takes the spot.

Thanks!

Gigrant... send out well wishes your way. Life can get bumpy somtimes

Gigrant (and everyone), this is a good place to be. It is a welcoming refuge in which to take shelter from the storm. The daily routine of checking scores and reading discussions and chatter provides a sense of normalcy and escape in unprecedented times. I am looking forward to six more weeks here.

Agreed. And just think...this wouldn't normally be starting for another 2 months.

gigrant is back in and already has four teams re-entered!

Have to give him credit for the class act — he didn't have to spend this time helping us get going

Glad he changed his mind. It’s better to have an owner who has already invested in his teams. Welcome back.

Hope he takes it and runs

The weird thing is that he only had issues in 2 themes. There are 7 owners who had issues in 3-4 themes.

Are you lookin' at me? Are you lookin' at me?

Anyway, I have no excuses.

I didn't have any fixes. I think I deserve some bonus points for that. :)

This is the first year I didn't have to make any corrections from my originally submitted teams. Although that didn't stop Mike from sitemailing me to tell me my $80M team was being flagged for an error.

all 6 teams entered. need to be verified. i'm sure i've got an error in there in there somewhere. thanks everyone for the support. 2020 has sucked for so many people, not just me. wishing the best for everyone. anxious to move on and get the leagues rolling so y'all can start abusing my teams :)
