This sucks but it is what it is - Air Crou - 04-21-2020
I guess people in this league don't get treated the same. And according to one of them, I am not even needed in the league and people would be happy if I left. He may be right, but that doesn't make his comment non-toxic at all. Which was what happened in the DSFL GM chat. The jokes about Portland were infinite. We were hussled to make draft picks, and we weren't on the clock not even for 30-35 minutes. It was one specific person that jumped the gun, and everyone followed. It was the same person that made the comment. I won't call his name, he knows who he is. The punishment we received last season was getting brought up daily.
I had already reached my breaking point. That comment though was the last straw. And I snapped. I should keep my cool, but when you let things slide daily, it stacks up. And the higher the stack, the bigger the bang. And that led HO to ask me to step down from my co-GM position in Portland. Which I will do. I am not doing it to save face. I am doing it to be able to tell my side of the story. I am not trying to play the victim, but I am not the only one to blame here.
But whatever, I guess this can be a learning experience to everyone in the DSFL GM chat. Jokes are funny, unless they are hiding digs behind them. And they are directed to the same people all the time. And please, start treating people the same.
I'd like to thank, and apologize to @KanakoTheSquirrel, for the opportunity and the upheaval I created. I would also like to thank and apologize to my guys over at Portland. I know it sucks to learn about it this way, but I suck at saying goodbye, and trust me, I didn't want it to end this way. At least I am leaving on my own terms.
I also hope that I will be able to assume duties as a GM once again in the future, if I don't leave the league until then.
So long everyone!

Damn bro, you are valued here. Even though it might be hard when someone says stuff, don’t forget that!

You know what the problem is? The person that made the comment will remain a GM. Meaning he is more valuable than me. I just hope people learn a thing or two about it.

They might still be a GM but that ain’t cool. Berating someone to the point they want to quit is no good. I’m sorry you experienced that, dude.

That's what I am saying when I mean preferential treatment. I am expendable. He isn't. That's what I saw here. And I hope everyone sees that as well.

@`AirCrou` you were a great GM for Portland and don't let what a few people said get to you. I don't know if HO will do anything but running people out of the league and harassment like you described isn't ok. The behavior of DSFL GMs has gotten insane lately and it seems like something needs to be done as a whole, HO needs to reign them in and get them to calm down. I'm sure you'll get a GM job again and many teams want the impact you bring to a locker room.

The blatant favoritism in this league makes me sad.

Don't let that shit get to you man. Take it and use it as fuel. Keep pushing forward and in a few days look back and laugh at it man. You got this

I really want to believe that me being asked to step down will the be first of many. Otherwise, the league needs a change up top.

As long as toxic people are still in positions of power, I won't be. I will just be a scapegoat for some people to cover their inability to treat people equaly.
