I have been in this league for two different eras. For the beginning seven seasons or so and for the last ten seasons. There are many people to thank along the way. One bored day in 2017 I found a recruiting post about this league on reddit, after mulling it over for a bit I joined the next day. The amount of initial work that was put into making the general website functional must have been enormous. Almost all of the people who carried that workload are not active in the league anymore, but I am thankful for their efforts and vision. People who perform the most critical day to day tasks and even the less important tasks for the league have made a positive experience for us all. There are hundreds of users now and to me the league seems to be operating smoothly. We can transition to the offseason, to the regular season, to the playoffs and do it all over again seamlessly. The rulebook to this point is well established and a lot of the loop holes have been ironed out. It’s not a free for all and there are less people trying to game the system. When you think about it, people in real life devote time to this league so we can all enjoy our fake football people on fake teams for enjoyment. Members who perform jobs, even the minor ones, have had a positive influence. Every active member has also had a positive effect on my time here. Without active people, there wouldn’t be a league. Lastly, but most importantly, my teammates through the years have had the biggest effect on my time. In my time with the Hawks and Wraiths over two different careers I have been able to interact with many good people. Teammates of mine have been located all over the globe and have many different outside of the league experiences to talk about. It’s been a pleasure hearing from them all. (331 words)
