And now with the fiasco that's ensued on XAT I'm having second thoughts.
I love the league. It's one of the best that I've been in. But the petty bullshit needs to stop NOW! I nearly thought of leaving along with Sean since Hokey made an apology, agreed to change his attitude, and now reverts back to the same line of thinking.
The reason I decided to stay around is I feel like I can do some good for the league with the higher title. But it's came apparent the culture needs to change around. The constant drama. The constant putting others down. The idiocy. It needs to stop!
I think Hokey breaking his apology constitutes a punishment. I feel this is strike two. Being we're in the situation we are, we cannot ask (or demand) Hokey to step down.
Voiding Romero's contract, fining Florida $60M, and docking them a 2031 1st Round Pick is what I feel is a just punishment. Florida would not be able to acquire Romero for the remainder of his career.
I also feel that we need to find someone else to sim. I cannot be asked to do any of the simming on a regular basis and we need more than just Hokey to sim. If you are interested, please reply.
So, that is where I'm at. If things don't change, I'll walk. However, I feel we have a good enough core to continue many more great seasons. I want to see this league get back to being great, instead of feeling like an episode of MTV's Teen Mom.
