Hi guys,
I apologize I havent been very active in this league since around mid-season. Id like to think Ill be able to be more committed next year, but Im finishing my grad degree and writing my thesis this year so practically I just dont think Ill be able to commit enough time to this league. I think I can only manage 1 or 2 so I have to cut somewhere.
I am happy to stay and do roster set up and checls with others, and help through the offseason. Id also be willing to keep this team and maintain my current level of engagement if a new owner isnt found, but Id think itd be best for the league to find a new owner.
My apologies. Best of luck! Kyler

I'll be stepping away from this league after this season ends - my activity has dropped significantly since starting grad school this year, and largely hasn't been good enough. I've had a lot of fun over the last 6 (!) seasons, and learned a lot since joining this league, but I can't keep up with the time commitment unfortunately.
The other members of the admin team have a great handle on all of their responsibilities, and as I've largely taken a backseat in the last few years anyhow, I'm confident Mark, Aaron, and Bert will do a great job of keeping things rolling as usual.

Hey guys the Padres will be one of the teams needing a new owner. I’ve enjoyed my time here but my life has taken a different route than what it was 6 years ago. Kids are growing up and are way more involved with things than I ever anticipated. Unfortunately this league is a casualty of a super busy life.
I wish everyone luck next year. Thanks again for the fun times.

Houston Mets, Chicago Padres, and Detroit Angels are the three teams that've let us know here, but two teams haven't voted. I think the Seattle Marlins (Bobby) will happily step down. He has no interest in this league, as far as I know, and it's shown best by his attendance.

agreed, it has been clear for a while that Marlins isn't interested any more the other team who hasn't responded is Stephen/TB Rockies as he packed it in a couple of months ago
so basically we need to find 5 new owners!
Mets Rockies Marlins Angels Padres
if anyone has any friends, relatives, colleagues, pets or even enemies who are interested then please let the admins know! also any suggestions for places to advertise for new owners would be appreciated (besides the obvious message boards)
we will probably have to condense the off-season schedule somewhat depending on how quickly we can fill the vacancies.
thanks!

Could somebody jump on over 'The Available Teams' page and change the status of the open teams?
Hopefully we get a few hits in the next week.

I don't think we got any interest.
What're the plans here?
