We should reverse all of Fitz's deals and boot him from the league. Pretty much the majority of the league has been upset by his deals, but for some reason we don't even have an official discussion on what to do about it.

No.

why not? why don't we at least have a discussion about this? Fitz has damaged the league, this is a fact.

If people had such a problem with the deals being made, they should have exercised veto powers.

All GMs are complicit in the "damage" done to the league.

Want something done? Propose a motion, call for a vote. Don't tell me I need to kick someone from the league because of a vocal minority.

That's all I have to say on this matter.

No. We are not complicit. We offered him better deals, that he gave horrid horrid counter offers to, then we DID veto him (TWICE) while he traded away players for a song.  Then we warned him and tried to explain things to him.  Then we finally spoke up. Who on Earth gets vetoed twice in their first week in the league?  Dude got caught with his hand in the cookie jar and doesn't seem interested in explaining himself. If anyone else here was accused of this they'd be like "This was my thinking..." within a heart beat. 

A few people were asleep at the wheel and are passive GMs. I give you that. That doesn't make them complicit in anything. 

He doesn't seem very interested in a free 2nd rounder I've put out there for him. Normally a rebuilding guy who wants to get better would go after that. Gee. I wonder why.

[Eja117]

If this guy was just some poor confused kid he'd be accepting or offering bad deals to everyone (duh). Instead he accepted horrid offers from some, while send horrid counter offers to others AT THE SAME TIME.  Then is nowhere to be found when he gets called out. Doesn't take a genius to figure this one out folks.

Lucky, I think it's time to step in and decide this one way or another. If nothing else, players are ending up in limbo and the arguments are being measured in weeks.

For my own part, I made a somewhat less controversial deal with Fitz but now the player and pick I received are essentially on lockdown where nobody will touch them until this is resolved. My team is in limbo because people are fighting over other moves. I respect that you don't get too involved in these debates, but this one needs to be resolved with authority IMO. The vote that was posted is currently 8-6-1 in favor of a reset. Take that for what you will, some are calling it a strong majority while others interpret it differently.

For the record, I would take back the team I gave up until a more solid GM steps to the plate to take over.

Looks like we'll need a replacement manager to take over for an inactive one.

PM me if you'd like to learn more about this exciting opportunity.

[Eja117]

Isn't nick in the other league? If he's active there I'd nominate him for this one, but maybe he already was in it. ....idk

[hpantazo]

Is it Gomesfan? I assume he's back to his usual AWOL state. I sent him 5-6 emails and trades offers in the last month and got no response.

[barefacedmonk]

We are in need of a replacement GM. Send Lucky a PM if you are interested in taking over a team (or send me one and I can forward your name to Lucky).

Put your armchair GM skills in action. Its fun...and all participants are members of CelticsBlog!!
