FFDL League Thread - 2022-2023

[theman]

We would like to thank Jimmy Butler for everything he has done and meant for The Team. He, for many years, has been the heart and soul for the Team. I don't believe we would have won the championship last season without his valuable contributions. Not only is he a tremendous athlete and competitor but is also a standup guy. Unfortunately, this business sometimes demands that tough decisions be made. This move was not made easily, but after much time and deliberation we decided it was the best move. Today marks the end of an era. We wish Jimmy all the success as he moves forward in his career.

[theman]

Congratulations new league champion Sabonis.

Also congrats to The Man for winning the WB memorial trophy.

Speaking of which Writer's Block said he will not be back next year so ones again we will need a replacement.

WB "Memorial" Trophy? I'm not dead.

[hamncheese]

If you are leaving the league, then you are dead to us.

Unless, this league is dead. I am up for another season. Is this going to be Season 17 or 18? It would be something if we can get to 20. I joined in Season 2. Who's been here for every one?

[floppymoose]

I've been *here* for every one. But not *there* for every one.

[eyeatoma]

I'm interested in joining the league if there is space.

I was a founding member...came back for a resurrection year this past year, and now am dropping out, so I guess the memorial award fits.

[TyCobb]

I’m out as well.

[insfo]

[theman]

Congratulations new league champion Sabonis.

Also congrats to The Man for winning the WB memorial trophy.

Speaking of which Writer's Block said he will not be back next year so ones again we will need a replacement.

Congrats Sabonis!

I want to say congrats to The Man too, but no idea what the WB memorial trophy is

WB "Memorial" Trophy? I'm not dead.

Years ago when the league had a lot of Smack talk going on, WritersBlock and CFan were getting pretty heated. At one point WritersBlock made the comment "At least I have won something" referring to the Consolation bracket. Therefore, I decided to christen it the WB memorial trophy. I probably should have explained that long ago.
