I had a note a couple months ago the league being setup...I know John has been busy, and was going to step aside being Commish, but decided to stick it out the last couple of years, I hope so as well, always a fun league :smoker:

Hey everyone, sorry I've just had a lot going on. I'd like to see if anyone would be interested in taking over the commissioner's spot moving forward? I believe I can assign co commissioner's duties and then remove myself. So please let me know if you are interested and would love to see this get back to 12 teams.

I'll kick in a 5"er for the new Commish as well. I'm starting a special assignment out of town for work in November...be great to get back to 12 teams, need a new geek!

To keep it together, I don't mind running it, as long as everyone is fine with the way I run baseball.  I am not on as much anymore, I am available, but there's not a ton of daily hands on, I let the league run and pay up when its over.  If that is cool, I don't mind keeping the band together.

We've got no traction on this to pick up another geek. I'm in enough fantasy leagues already. As much as I love this league, and playing with everyone it's just not as fun with 10 teams. We honestly, if you look at the calendar, only have 11 days to pick a draft time we can agree on, and get another geek to make it a full 12. I'll step aside and let Mr Cordell play, and he'd make 10. I'll still shoot you over a 5"er Stogie for stepping up and trying to keep this together if you guys end up having a league. That was a solid move brother, it's a shame, but it seems like the interest has really fallen off the past 2 years. It's fine it happens to these leagues all the time. Again, I'd really prefer not to play another year of 10 teams. Good luck to all, it's been a fun ride for sure I'd love to see it keep going, but there's just not enough interest it seems. Thanks again! John you've been an amazing Commish! Stogie I'm sure you'll make a great Commish as well! Again good luck to all!

I can't speak for my brother IndyGopher, but he doesn't smoke cigars much at all anymore and I picked him up a couple of years ago to help fill this league. Again I can't speak for him, I'll reach out and see if he wants to play, but I'd guess if I'm getting out, then he probably won't want to be in either. I text him n ask him to post. Thanks again to all for trying to keep this league going. Just doesn't look like it's going to happen. No traction all month, it really is a shame. Thanks again John & good luck to the rest of you guys!

Hey everyone, I just talked with Adam and I'm going to bow out this since he's not playing.  I've not been active in the cigar world for a while anyway, so it seems like the right time to step away. Appreciate you guys letting me play the past couple years and hope you enjoyed my sticks since I never won lol!

chief791

Well I guess it doesn't look good for our league. Hopefully we can pull it off but it doesn't look good. I'm still in if we can fill the slots up. Im fine with a 10 team league. Still Don't have a draft day.
