He opens the door and looks into his office for the last time. There is the football for the Championship game....came so close! He sees the pics of year one, the beginning of a great run! There was alot of losses, but he doesn't regret a single one. Every single week was worth the blood, sweat and tears he poured into his team. He see's the bloodied jerseys from all the wars with SLC and thinks back to those times. DAMN, he will sure miss this shit! He see's the clipboard he left on the desk with last weeks gameplan. Should probably just throw that away, not his best work.
The assistent coaches are finishing up packing the rest of his things. Someone says the limo has arrived to take him to the airport. He sends them away. Just one more minute in his office by himself like he spend so many sleepless nights.
He looks around, turns out the light, and locks the door. Times change, and it's time for him to move on. He takes one last look behind him and leaves.
WOW, what can I say? It's been a fun run. The wars I have had in this league with seriously last me a lifetime. Cring, your the fucking man. Iron fist, but sensible enough to have the common sence to make the right decisions EVERY SINGLE TIME.
Jeff.........FUCK OFF.
Suicane........lol, just saying your name makes me laugh. Your a fucking dork man, but your cool as shit and I would go to war with you anyday of the week.
Vito.......your a warrior man. Don't give up. And for gods sakes, quit changing what you know works man. We can't win every year.
I could go on and on. Roadrash, Dberner, the list goes on of friends I have made through the years. For those of you new to the league, thats right, YEARS.
It was time for me to move on. You would think that after building this team from scratch and watching them lose season after season I would stick around and reap the rewards. But with my work schedule and commitments I have recently made, it would be unfair to let this team do anything but succeed. And right now, I just don't have that time.
I was approved for Vanguard beta( http://www.vanguardsoh.com/aboutvanguard.php ), and I found out this weekend that Everquest has opened up a classic server ( http://eqforums.station.sony.com/eq/...essage.id=5480 ). For those who don't me that well, I spend 5 years playing EQ and just retired 2 years ago. The classic server gives me a chance to relive some of the old days and I have started a guild ( Kinda like the league, only for EQ
) and will be in charge of pretty much everything. My guilds success or failure depends on how hard I work at it, and I don't enjoy failure (This is where people insert snide remarks about my win loss record) !
But another factor is the game itself. It needs a major overhaul. It's starting to show it's years and the "fun" factor for me, has worn some. Enough on this.
I have talked to both Cring and Jeff regarding the status of Oakland. It was MY REQUEST, that Jeff take the team over. I have been fighting with this asshole since the fucking allocation draft, but as you old timers know, I just love the guy to death. He plays hard, he plays to win, and nothing gets by him. When he was forced to take a leave, he had to give up Columbia, THE best team in the league. The team HE build, and upon his return, gladly accepted Fresno, who blew ass chunks. Thats should tell ya about the character of this guy. Despite his status as reigning asshole of the year, there is NO OTHER owner I would want to accept the Assassins. They need a winner for a GM and he fits that bill.
I would hope that the league will accept my resignation with honor, and if I am able to return some time in the future, you accept me back into the league.
I love you all.............PEACE.
