Real life has gotten in the way again I have already prenamed FlyersFan the next GM of Riga a couple of seasons ago. I'll be a welfare player the rest of the way and at this point I have no intention of recreating after that. I know Jim will do a great job moving forward and Riga will finally lead the European Conference next season.

Well ya that's a given.

I'll have you know that I'm immune to sexual harassment training I've taken several courses.

I don't expect to join a YouTube network or anything like that anytime soon but I did stumble upon a website today that might be useful for anyone who does make videos, records, or streams anything.  This web-site called Any.tv (click the link to go to their site) will give you a link to the game you want to advertise for.  If anyone clicks on that link and joins the game you get paid for it.  I think the video game companies basically give them money to bring people to their games and in turn they give a portion to regular people who do that for them  .  Its basically like an affiliate network that can be used in addition to being part of an actual YouTube network.  Anway just wanted to share that feel free to ignore this post and move on I found it kind of neat-o.

Let me apologize in advance since this was originally going to be the initial mock draft for Season 40.  I then remembered in the past I had been comparing draft classes at the trade deadline as well as projecting their final totals come draft day.  Now we have enough data to go back and see Season 37 thru to Season 40.  This will give us proof behind a doubt if the Season 40 Draft Class is not only one of the best classes in recent memory but potentially of all time.
 
Before we get into the specifics we did have nearly twenty draftees show up to practice again.  That number is likely higher as some reporting lags behind and we don’t see the results on their official player roster page till weeks later.  Also quickly the initial mock draft will be held next week most likely as part one being the first round with a second round mock part two the week after.  Warning there will be numbers in this edition of the draft rankings.
 
How Good Is the Season 40 Draft Class?

 
This Draft Class if indescribably amazing that’s how good it is.  Currently the draft sits at around 3250 practice hours.  There is several weeks left to improve before the season ends and then the post-season begins.  Many of these players will see a tremendous gain in pre-draft activities (achievement tracker).  That is where my conservative estimate of 3800 practice hours by draft day comes from.  If we see improvements like we have in the past with over thirty players putting in work the sky is the limit.  In that case we could even see more than 4000 practice hours but our estimates take into account 15-18 players and not 25-30 for the remaining of the season.
 
The Season 18 Draft Class is often one that is looked back on as one of the if not the best draft of all time.  To help put into perspective how great this draft is we’ve already seen a gain of 15% in terms of practice hours.  Again we still have weeks to go and this draft looks to be about 35-40% more talented in terms of talent and sheer number of draftees compared to the Season 18 Draft.  That draft got us well known players such as Daisuke Kanou, Anton Brekker, Oliver Scarlett, Tarik Saeijs, and Aidan Shaw to name just a handful.
 
Many around the league who are part of the newer generation or are younger players might not know much about that Season.  To help put this into another perspective we can look to the past three drafts Season 37, Season 38, and Season 39 all of which were seen as good to great.  Remember that these drafts are a pale comparison to what Season 40 has to offer.  Season 37 brought in current VHL superstars Slaeter Fjorsstrom, Tom Slaughter, Logan Laich (lolz), Kimmo Salo, and Travis Boychuk to name a handful there.  Season 38 has given us the emergence of Vojczek Svoboda, Bruno Wolf, Don Draper, Dimothenis Vlasis, and Brock Waldron as just a taste of what was there.  Season 39 we are just seeing players like James Faraday, Koji Yamazaki, and Tyson Stokes emerge as the next generation of superstars.  All of these players and potential VHL Hall of Famers are going to be swallowed up by an endless wave of Season 40 talent.
 
 

Ah James I can't stay mad at you GWG vs Davos great game team.

The reality of how great this draft is and also sorry first mock coming next week instead.

I feel you have a growing dislike for me though the feeling from me isn't mutual I have no problem with you.  I'am definitely a gamer and openly seek to play various games with fellow VHLers.  We've played League on Skype before but you don't seem to really want to play with me when I see you on and that's fine.  I do find it hard to accept internet stuffs as truths but I believe in what you've said and do hope it was sincere.  I have a lot of similarities with your original message except I'm now years further along the road but the context reminds me a lot of my post college situation.
 
May 2008 graduated degree Computer Science with federal and state student loans
July 2008 took a retail job at OfficeMax at $8.50/hour and have never really used my degree
June 2009 I worked really hard for 11 months and was promoted giving me $9.35/hour
At this point I realized I didn't want to work this hard for a corporation that probably didn't care about me or even know I existed.  How I proceeded after this was one of the driving forces of me stepping down from Toronto GM spot and leaving the league around Season 12.
 
So I thought really hard and this is probably the best advice I can give to you or anyone else here.  What do you really want to do?  Now that sounds a lot like the high school / college adviser/counselor talk.  Except I'm willing to take it to a more true sense.  If you like to cook that doesn't mean you'd make a good chef and enjoy cooking for 100's of people in a fact paced environment.  Maybe you like to cook but you just aren't good at it.  For me it was more of the lottery winner thought I want to do what I want when I want.  If it means sleep all day, eat breakfast for dinner, or play video games all day that is what I was going to do.
 
Anything in life worth having isn't easy I made sacrifices along the way you talk about not having a vehicle and wanting one I waited till Spring 2012 before having my first car (and even then it wasn't a good one).  I rode my bike to and from work for 3+ years even during the winters of Western NY.  I decided buying a house was way more useful and important toward long term success than a car.  A rental property can make you money while a car unless its taking you to a high paying job far away costs you money.
 
October 2010 I bought my first house a 3 apartment rental nearly 18 months before owning my first car at just $9.35/hr I saved up enough money to buy a house in just over a year.
October 2011 I left OfficeMax and turned down a salaried management position because in 3 short years I worked hard enough and sacrificed enough to set myself up for the future.  I started my own business and in 2 months I'll have been doing what I want going on 3 years.  This also brought me back into the league when my free time jumped considerably.
 
1) Take care of yourself
2) Take care of your family
3) Take care of your friends
Do what you want in life as long as it is legal and not negatively effecting others.  Realize that in order to do what you want you must put forth the effort now to get the rewards later.
