What the heck!
I forgot about 60% to even check my roosters and missed out. I suppose if I'm needed to have an even number of teams, I could half ass my way through another season. I just didn't think it was fair to the rest of you if I wasn't fully invested. When I remember, I enjoy following things, but last season I just never really got into it.

EDIT TO AMEND:
Request rescinded in a later post.

Everyone does the best they can. I don't think this is a serious business league. I understand how you feel though. I'd rather you stay in than leave for those reasons.

It's very kind of you to say that, CaptSMRT. I will give it one more season to see if I can pull my fantasy hockey head out of my fantasy hockey ass and stay involved. I hereby formally rescind my request to be removed from the league.

As a thank you for sticking with the league, if I am so fortunate as to beat you in the playoffs, I will not ask you to "tell me how my ass tatstes" this season. No such courtesy was extended to Bill last season.

dude - you have to check on your roosters. they need food and water.

also remember your commissioner hasn't been able to watch hockey regularly for going on six seasons now. i check my team monday mornings, see what categories i lost and if there is a way to improve, then never again until the next monday. i came in second last season.

This is like the episode of Saved by the Bell when Zach Morris says he got into Harvard despite kind of blowing off the last 4 years of high school.

I just honestly forgot about it a lot. I am hoping that a second season will bring me around. I know when I am more involved, I do enjoy it. I'll do my best to stay on top of things. It's not like I have a lot going on to keep me from having the free time to spend 10 minutes once a week to monitor things.

If I may be a major pain in the ass, would it be possible to have a new thread for each Fantasy Hockey season? This broken down old bastard (me) really needs things simplified. I wanted to ask here before just starting a new thread and hoping everyone would switch over. Feel free to tell me exactly where to put my idea as well.

we can, it's just kind of fun to see history of the battles in this thread. i don't really feel strongly either way, if we want to start a Fantasy 2026-2027 thread, fine by me. can always combine them all once the season is over too.
