Esso2264

That's right friends - the title's all about awards drama.
 
In reality I have trust in the BOG to make the right decisions in the end, so uh, sorry about the title. There's no drama to be found here. Do I wish I had another dozen points to make the awards races a little more interesting? Yeah, but then again, who doesn't?
 
Is anyone maybe a little sadder than they thought they'd be at @Esso2264 stepping down from his station as the New York Americans GM? I'm very excited for @MexicanCow123 to show us what he's got and my impression of him over the last several seasons is he's clearly got the qualifications for the job and a wonderful reputation on the site. He's shown absurd amounts of activity as an updater alone (seriously, check my update history), to say nothing of all of his other work. But Esso's been around since about six months prior to my most recent return. He's like, all I've known, man.
 
I know he'll be just as active in the VHL and playing League of Legends with the guys in the Discord, but there's something a little bittersweet about him taking a step back from his league responsibilities.
 
That's enough rambling for now. Thanks for reading, and I hope you're well.

if we want to beat the record we had to take the guy for the job

Going slightly nuts in lockdown already, but luckily I still have some sim leagues to distract me. I simply want to say thanks to everyone involved in running and participating in the VHL(or in fact, any sim or online group activities). From the blue team, to mods and updaters, simmers, VSN contributers, GM's, AGM's and every single person active in the VHL with a player, thank you. In times like these, you are all providing a welcome piece of entertainment and a chance to interact with others, despite the huge distances and timezone differences involved. You don't have to give up your time and effort to keep the league running but you do, and I simply wanted to say thanks and you are appreciated. 
 

hello everyone, it's me, birb. I am here to announce that this current season will be my last one as the GM of the New York Americans. It's been a wild ride in the 12 seasons i've GMed here and i think it's time for me to give the wheel of this ship to someone else. I'd like to thank the good people of the blue to have given me this opportunity back in S67, it was a fullfilling experience. I'm not going anywhere tho, you'll still have my garbage jokes to deal with, just as a player only.
 
okay goodbye
