The most recent controversy came when a large portion of the Las Vega Legion retired. Or, at least, a member of their team claimed to retire for everyone. Some accepted, but others did not do so cleanly, making it obvious that not everyone was committed to the cause. Rumors suggest that this was the work of Connor Tanner, who threatened their families and/or had other dirt on them. And he was ready to do the unthinkable if the rest of the team didn’t follow through. Tanner had seen enough. And, to paraphrase Luke Skywalker in the Last Jedi trailer, Tanner had decreed that it was “time for the Legion to die”.
The team reacted to this demand in different ways. Some truly followed suite, influenced by the Dark Side and, also likely, their general unhappiness with their team. Wyatt Fulton proudly embraced this fate, proving that, as his mother once suggested, he would indeed jump off a bridge if his friends did it, too. Jimmy Cox retired and then immediately un-tired in a random moment that was very typical for man that once claimed to be 700 years old. Then again, our inside sources tell us that Jimmy Cox retires and un-retires at least once a week, so this may not be particularly significant. Jon Ross also retired despite not being part of the first wave, which is noteworthy, but he wasn’t one of the first to do so, meaning that he’ll still lose all credibility with his friends that are into indie rock music. On the other hand, channeling the Luke Skywalker of a younger era, Philip Carter and Wallace Stone resisted the pull of the Dark Side, opting to stay unretired. Philip Carter wisely outsmarted Tanner’s plan by passive-aggressively commenting in the following discussion, but never actually “accepting” their retirement. Wallace Stone, on the other hand, took a more blunt approach and simply told him no. We have in good authority that Tanner had threatened to harm Stone’s grandmother if the retirement was not accepted, but we’ve also been made aware that Stone’s grandmother practices Krav Maga and that Tanner found it out the hard way.
Perhaps this wasn’t the conspiracy that so many made it out to be. Perhaps one man didn’t coerce 6 other people into walking away from the sport they once loved. Perhaps it’s possible that those 6 people were just unhappy. However, that wouldn’t be very fun to write about, would it? (In fact, it’s kind of depressing, so stop suggesting that. I’s bringing the rest of us down.)
