Had a heart to heart with Dutchy today and he realizes this isn't a style of pool he enjoys. He finds it boring and doesn't have the patience or interest required.
Sorry about that guys. Hes such an avid poolster I thought for sure hed be a great addition.
Begin search for Islander ownership.....or maybe Aaron wants to leave his Jets for the East Coast

Maybe he thought it was a DFS league or something with instant gratification. In today's world people want the constant thrill, whereas our league is a slow burn. We're a dying breed for sure but boring i think not. There's lull periods but overall there's action most of the calendar year. Sucks that it wasn't for him, but we'll try and fill it with a better fit.

Wish people would get a better grip on whats going on before accepting the position, like, what did he think this was? /smh.
Hopefully we get a replacement soon, at least he didn't just disappear into nothingness like others have done.

hard to get a true idea of this until you try it. Its way better than I thought it was going to be. I guess its all in expectations. Instant grat is totally what he was hoping for. Live scoring based on each NHL game like his other pools. Wings and I are in another pool with him that has been going 15 years or so

Its been successful in the past too, mostly under the protection of "let the GMs manage their teams how they want"...Detroit I believe (before Hunter took over) was that team, and that GM was kicked out.

Our league requires thinking, having to actually use your head for more then a hat rack, must be boring to some.
