A league wide drama was when Matt James began his hold out. He posted an article from his "agent" talking about what his "client" had requested and said that James felt disrespected by the Liberty GM. The GM obviously questioned what James was talking about when James decided to post private PMs between James and the GM. Many felt this was wrong and inappropriate to post private PMs but James said it was in response to false figures presented by sources. Many of course wrote their own articles about the hold out. The hold out ended when the Wraiths and The Libery made a trade, sending James to yellowknife. Many questioned whether or not James would hold out in yellowknife as well. This was proven wrong though, as James decided to sign a contract with the wraiths. Many still talks about this as case of a player acting like a whiny brat, and others said it showed that the Liberty were a bad team. 4 weeks later though, and the wraiths are one of the best teams in the league while the Liberty are regarded as one of the worst, with only 1 win in the season. Maybe James had planned this all along.
