Randy's accomplishments:

 

- pissing off the entire league and getting booted mid-draft

- gifting me Freddie Freeman

- drafting one of the worst fantasy teams in history

 

And you still think he did better than Boxy lol.

 

giving us TRM, still up in the air on that one

That's no way to speak of the man you voted as "Funniest Poster" in 2015.

Trading Trout seems like an exceptionally bad idea. Please don't do it. Especially not to Greenwood or North.

 

North badly needs a CF though, I would try to leverage that. I think he might be in enough of a pickle to make it work for both of them. Couldn't hurt to ask. At worst he tries to work some 10 team gargantuan trade that's bound to fail but is good for a laugh.

I can't even imagine what it would take to get me to move him in BORED.

He traded Freeman for the picks he used to draft Wood and Gray.

 

I think he had the worst draft in the league, easily.

I must have missed the part where Freddie Freeman wasn't traded for two 80s picks.

I'm not going to list them, but there are definitely teams with far weaker drafts. Baltimore had one of the strongest starting rotations in the league.

Offense was pretty bad though.

When TRM took over the draft was more than 450 players deep and his offense was Yelich, Perez, Schoop and David Murphy. I'm convinced the entire thing was a troll by Randy.

Are you feeling alright, buddy?

It is kinda funny that LOD couldn't even make it through the initial draft without losing a manager. Meanwhile, DDL is

Has anyone who isn't already in the league even posted in this thread? This seems like a really bad time for a manager search. Board is pretty dead.

Another possibility is that, at ~35 owners now, we've exhausted the list of interested parties who visit this board. I think in general, people aren't nuts about inheriting a team anyway, especially in such a deep league. People want to draft their own teams, unless the league is so awesome that they're dying to get in by any means.

FWIW, I drafted these folks.

I drafted Murphy, I'm fairly sure.

An expansion draft involving assetts from 3-4 team might be more appealing but with the draft slated to start on Jan. 2, there's no time to set-up something like that. Need an owner for Silvergunn ASAP or failing that a prospects guy who would enjoy getting a team through the draft though I can't think of anyone who is that hardcore about prospects and not already in the league.

I've asked silvergun to run the draft. I'm hoping he's willing to to that.

If not we should kick him out of the DDL as punishment. And do a dispersal draft with his players.

Yeah that would be alright. Then maybe we can look into creating a pool of candidates and possibly holding a 2 to 4 team dispersal draft which would be a way to make the new owners feel more invested.

I would even go as far as stripping him of his title and passing it to the runner-up.

two of my three criteria still stand. Obviously the dispersal draft doesn't need to happen but I will take the Mets, and do the draft until a more active owner is found.

What were your three criteria?

That a replacement be searched and that no one say anything when I do everything in my power to piss off AG (including using my entire window despite being online and having a list to pick from minute one)
