Dark day, Justin really helped me get back into the swing of things with Lavelle in my return to the league. Joining Mexico City is something I'd do over again in a heartbeat.

I don’t think anyone gives a fuck anymore 😂

I feel like when the theme of “VHL Appreciation,” was announced, quite a few people rolled their eyes. “Of course we appreciate the VHL,” they likely said to themselves, “why else would we be here?” Indeed, why else would they click buttons, work magic in Photoshop, write a masterpiece that would make Homer jealous, or put Joe Rogan to shame with a podcast? Of course they like what they do, appreciate the community, and we enjoy (maybe) seeing our player do well in the sims. But it goes deeper than that, I feel. It’s not a collective whole that brings us back time after time, player after player. There are members behind it all who stand out, and do so differently to different people as well. Sometimes, you need to find your people to really maximize your enjoyment, feel your worth, and discover your sense of belonging.
 
These are my people.
 
The Toronto Legion… all of them. Whether its newcomers like @Mr_Hatter and @Frank, who came and immediately set the VHL on fire, to veterans like @MattyFired, @Viper, and @DreMin15, who have proudly represented the team. @WildfireMicro, who is one of the most faithful teammates I’ve ever had, @Vice, who finds his own way to contribute, @Hybrid1486, our rookie blueliner and forum frequenter, and @KnightRiley, the piece of Emi that will always remain. Lastly, there’s @Peace, who brought me here, and is responsible for pretty much this whole team and situation today. I’ve done everything I can to help make this team a place someone would be excited to be a part of, and it isn’t possible without having a roster of players that makes the job feel worthwhile. I hope I have succeeded in that regard for all of you.
 
@Spartan… you’ve assembled an incredible community in Moscow, and being a part of it is such a treat. It’s one of the funniest, most engaging, and overall rewarding places I’ve ever been in a sim league, and if I can manage to replicate half of this with Toronto, I will be ecstatic.
 
@Beketov… if there is ANY one member that could be the VHL as a whole, it is you. Been here from Day One, done it all… and continue to do so. There is so much that simply wouldn’t be possible without your calm, steady guidance. When the day comes that you move on, a large part of this league will go on with you.
 
@Victor, your captain still holds you in high regard, and will always cherish the glory years of the HC Davos Dynamo. Through mutual belief, respect, and trust, great things are always achievable. Onwards, Davos!
 
@STZ, my first VHLM GM, and that awesome Season 33 Bratislava Watchmen team really got me cemented in this league, for better or for worse. You never forget your first, they say. I haven’t, and I always have done what I can to be as welcoming and helpful to others as you were to me. 
 
@samx, my emotional support human/alarm clock. We talked from time to time, despite you being afraid of me, then we eventually realized how similar our brains were. How much we could relate to our brains messing with us. You’re a real one, a friend on a much more personal level than I’d ever expect to find in a league of fictional hockey players. Thanks for putting up with all my nonsense!
 
@a_Ferk, to date, the ONLY AGM I’ve ever had. The yin to the yang, the night to my day… I can’t explain why it worked so well, but it did. Together, we may not have won cups (at least as a management team, S72 is forever), but we did produce many quality members and players to the VHL, which to me, is the ultimate sign of a job well done in the VHLM. I really hope you get a chance to shine again there.
 
@Arce, you went from the VHL legend I got to write about every so often to becoming a real person, and one that is a blast to interact with almost daily. I’m so glad I got that chance to get to meet the man behind the myth, and I cannot wait for that Tri-State VHL BBQ!
 
@MubbleFubbles, Tagger, whatever you want it to be… you’ve been a constant source of joy, hilarity, and entertainment throughout my time here, and you’re a legend just for goalie sacks alone, yet you do so much more than that.
 
@OrbitingDeath , the guy who makes Hall of Fame players as a hobby, yet is still one of the most down to earth, approachable people in the community, always willing to share a laugh and wisdoms. Intelligent, cultured, and humorous, you’re a gift to this league, and I’m blessed that you consider me good company.
 
@Vkobe-v, you went from the realest goaltender I had in Saskatoon to the realest dude in Moscow. A genuinely quality human being that I can’t wait to brag to people that I know him when he’s crushing faces in his many sportsball quests.
 
@Shindigs, you crushed my heart when you asked to be traded from Toronto, but you’re too damn cool to not keep being friends with. You’re even a time-traveler that I can consult with to see what life is like several hours in the future. How cool is that?
 
@JardyB10, someone that it's hard to believe is a real person behind all the crazy stories, but is the absolute realest dude. The Boomer Cast was a memorable experience and I would love to join up for another one!
 
@Dil, the leader of Vasteras and someone whose contributions to this league go way too under the radar for my liking. You do great things for this league, but all that really needs to be said here is VASTERAS VASTERAS VASTERAS VASTERAS VASTERAS VASTERAS VASTERAS VASTERAS VASTERAS VASTERAS VASTERAS 
 
@diamond_ace , who has put up with me as a general manager for nine seasons, longer than anyone else! You always valued my contributions, fostered a great team atmosphere, and were a blast to work with!
 
@Garsh, who is a constant source of hilarity and a F1 fan to boot! The perfect blend of sarcasm and wit, just a naturally funny guy that is a proud pension practitioner on top of it all. Every time you show up, it's memorable. 
 
@Josh is another guy that contributes in so many ways that just doesn't get seen or acknowledged on the surface. Thanks for everything you do that allows everyone to enjoy the VHL!
 
@Zack, you're always a riot to talk with, and I hope one day we'll share a team so our encounters can be more than just randomly being in Gen Chat at the same time. 
 
@MexicanCow123, I would write this portion of the article for free, like how you perform as an updater. We always had each other's backs in the M, and now we're both up in the VHL somehow. New York is waiting on a winner, though. Can't keep them waiting forever!
 
@frescoelmo, you've had to deal with my shenanigans since the MSFL, yet you persist. You deal with the league's riff-raff on a daily basis, and while the yam threat hasn't manifested in ages, you remain ever-vigilant. Moddin' ain't easy. 
 
@Squidward, whether you're pulling a legendary prank, causing chaos in Town of Salem, or trashing the Flyers, you're a character that this league needs more of. 
 
@Moon MOONER! You showed up during my hiatus I believe, and in that time, you quickly established yourself as a go-getter capable of taking on big tasks. You're always a joy to talk to, and you always seem so happy to see me around, as if you've known me forever. 
 
@Gustav when I first returned to the VHL, you were one of the first people that was super welcoming to me, and we've always gotten along after that. Our mutual passion for DAVID, love of meme culture, and love for the most unwanted song have made for some great memories along the way. You definitely wound up being one of the best new additions that was not around for my first tenure in the VHL.
 
@BOOM another member who's been around for all of my shenanigans, and who I've also been lucky to call a teammate. I've seen the glories of your locker room contributions, and you enjoyed seeing the exploits of my B-17 on War Thunder. It's hard to imagine a VHL without my favorite brother from down under. 
 
@Renomitsu, you're doing amazing things for the world, and we are blessed to have your company. You're also the one person who recognized my avatar and knows what it is!
 
@McWolf , you're free from London, and hopefully free to enjoy some of the finer aspects of the league again. You gave me my start again in Saskatoon, and we got to compete against each other this season. Maybe one day we'll get to do so again!
 
It's impossible to mention everyone, and I am sure my brain isn't going to let me remember everyone, so I can't wait for all the, "where's my mention?!" replies. But seriously, this community rocks, and it goes beyond all the tagged members here. That's what makes it so special, and makes everything worth it all.

Hey @DInodudeNc! Welcome to the VHL, my name is AJ and I am GM of the Warriors in the JST. We just completed our draft and are waiting for games to start Thursday! The Warriors roster is looking good but another center would make us solid. Quote this post with #Warriors to join the team.

1. Welcome back to Press Conferences with JardyB10. I'm your host, JardyB10. We're off to a bumpy 0-2 start in the semi-finals against the Marlins. What needs to change for us to come back in this series?
 
2. Besides VHLM Playoffs, the ProAm off-season tournament will be starting up soon! Check out the Discord HERE if you want. Will you participate in this tournament? Why or why not?
 
3. Suppose you were a world famous VHL podcaster like myself: What song or melody would you choose as your theme music?
 
4. If you could have one VHL/VHLE/VHLM award renamed after you, which would it be?

Much love in this podcast.

It's theme week and it's time to show some GD appreciation. I obviously spend much time talking about Halifax, thank all those with responsibility, focus on the VSN crew, and cap it off with shoutouts to the real big wigs.
 
In hindsight I could have made this podcast much longer and gave shoutouts to even more of the people here that I love, but I felt these particular people could use the extra thanks for all they do. It was a great theme week idea and I've really been loving the love here this week. Next week I hope we can get back to being nasty though.

You are aware that’s NOT how this works right? Admins can 100% see who voted for what.

Welcome everyone,
 
Wednesday the 25th, the season of the VHLE and the Rome Gladiators ended. Rome finished the season with a very bad record of 17 wins, 50 losses and 5 losses in overtime for a poor total of 39 points in 72 points. This is the second worst total of points in the entire history of the VHLE after the Geneva Rush in S81 (38 points). Just like the Gladiators this season, the S82 Oslo Storm also recorded 39 points during the season. I want to congratulate three players who played for the Gladiators the entire season and were without a doubt the best players of the team, Justin Adolfsen @NJDevils24, Charles Williams @Nosam_13and Freddy Freeze @G_Rush. I aslo want to mention the good end of the season of the trade deadline acquisition Minou Lambert @Minoulambert23. Now, Rome needs to focus on the upcoming draft and the off-season. Rome currently has the S84 ROM 1st and the S84 BRA 3rd in the upcoming draft.
 
Thanks everyone, see you next week and let's go Gladiators!!!

@VHLM GM

Is this about confirming your age or you not having a multi lol

Show me joeys ASU acceptance letter #FORKSUP

As of late I have lost a lot of support and many members are now denouncing me. Therefore I believe that i will quit forums starting in June. I will be checking in to update Manny BTW ROME!!!! If after a month people are missing me (they won't) I will come back. I would like to thank all of those who supported me on my journey....
@Laine You were my first GM ever. I remember the Minnesota Storm.
@Zack You taught me everything I know. You also gave me a shot at a management role
@Dil and @Baozi... You told me always to follow the rules and that if I did everything would go smooth
@Beketov and @Josh For welcoming me into the league with open arms.....
@Frankand @thadthrasher I was more than happy to work together to help Joey and the Recruitment Crew
@rory  Up until a few hours ago..... You were a big supporter of Joey. Im sorry for guessing your pronouns wrong. I was wrong for assuming such a thing
@jacobcarson877 You were also a large supporter. Thanks for everything
@ArceFor waiting all night without sleeping to wait for Joey's announcement
@JardyB10For being an Ally and an Enemy. Your podcasts are great. And while I don't agree with your podcast about Joey. I respect it, you used all the info there was and worked hard.
@MrJoey2928 who is not here because of being banned but will be mentioned anyways.
@STZFor writing stupid comments under threads like this. Once again I hate them but I respect them
 
 
As for those wondering about endorsements i will continue those. I see this more of winding into quitting for good. And eventually there is a good chance that day will come. This whole issue is mostly due to controversy and a loss of supporters. Along with just not having fun. You know i came here to enjoy a hockey sim and because of one thing I am banned from Discord (which cost me management jobs) because you need to see my FU*KING BIRTH CERTIFICATE (@fishy yes this has swearing.....) and I think this is a step too far by the mod team. They in my mind are trying to drive me off of the league. And that is fair, your not the only ones. But on a better note at least I am not banned, they banned Joey which in my mind is still stupid but that is their orders. And as i said before I don't agree with it but, I respect it. I have never heard of having to show a birth certificate, just believe I am old enough. I am not lying to you. I cross my heart. And many of you reading this probably think i am a bit crazy. I can see exactly where your coming from but I just want this whole issue to end. The Discord thing is actually one of the main reasons I am doing this. Once again thanks to all of the small amounts of people (and multis ) that support me.
