Sorry everyone, but following a frankly ridiculous PM exchange with a manager today, I've decided that I'm done with the league, both as a commissioner and a player, with immediate effect.

Whatever enjoyment there is in participating in the league is overshadowed by the thankless nature of continuing to deal with increasingly petty whinges about the admin of it.  Given that this now extends to it apparently being my fault that Yahoo has removed a player from the site, then it's time to call it quits.  I don't intend to go into further details regarding this, but it's fair to say it has proved to be the tipping point.  Participating as a player only in a league that I've run for so many seasons isn't really an option for me, so it's time for me to make a clean break.

If anyone wants to take over the setup then please let me know.  I'll transfer the responsibility to them and they can run it however they wish from that point on.  We also had bergeroo recently showing interest in taking over a team in the league if one became available, so there is hopefully still a manager available to fill the vacancy.

I've received payments from two managers to date, so I sort out refunds to them directly (I've probably got bank details saved for them somewhere, but I'll PM them if any doubts).  For the other managers, please don't send payment to me and await developments as to whether the league will run with another commissioner.

I want to thank everyone who has participated in the DLeague over all this time.  From the initial season on ESPN's site, to the subsequent years on Yahoo, it has been (mostly) a huge source of enjoyment of me.  Thanks especially to Tal for being a co-commissioner in recent seasons.  I hope and expect that it will be able to continue without my involvement, and I'd suggest that the draft process continues in the meantime on this basis.

ffs. Can’t believe someone would be so ridiculous and annoying as to make you want to quit.

Guessing it’s something to do with Dez being deleted off the site and whoever had him last year.


Thanks for running this for so many years if this is the end for you. You shall be missed!

Hopefully someone else can take over the mantle.

Hey I will take over the team if it means you get the full compliment of 10 managers and keep the league going etc, but have a think about it and talk if over. Seems like you have put a lot or work in to organise everything - Maybe you still want to be a player and keep your team even if you aren't commish? If still no resolution or change of heart then I will be around, so someone drop me a message or I will check the thread. But think of me as a last resort.

This, but before you go, give yourself 24hrs to cool off first and then see what happens.

Sheriff.. reconsider please mate.. this is all meant to be fun and if people are getting all uppity about a £20 a year punt then maybe they should find another hobby.

Half the point of this is the community spirit etc im sure the majority have appreciated all your work,effort not to mention time in organising our leagues.

I can fully understand you wanting to step aside from the organising part but stay as a player..we all know you love it Smiley
