Hi everyonbe I have some bad news. I am Big Bob's (owner of Pioneers) son in law and I am sad to report he passed away tonight very unexpectedly. I am not sure what this does to the draft let alone league?

Pretty sure the contract says the Son in law has to take over. Big Smile

My condolences.  The Association has lost a great GM.  BigBob actively managed two teams since fall 2005.  He led his Turnpike All-Star team to victory, and participated in our mock draft this spring.

 BigBob's lifetime record:

League Season Team W L KFAvg
Greatest Show 2006 Cincinnati Bobcats 3 13 181.6135
Greatest Show 2007 Cincinnati Bobcats 8 8 201.082
Turnpike 2006 Cincinnati Pioneers 12 4 200.4558
Turnpike 2007 Cincinnati Pioneers 7 9 192.9341

I'm very sorry to hear that.  I just exchanged e-mails w/ bob on tuesday and he said he needed to know about Brighton soon because he was going to be out of town.  This post has to be the last thing i would have expected.  I can't say that any of us knew him personally but he was good GM, an active partipant in the community and he a had rotating e-mail depending on the time of year that he would always ask us to change.   He will be missed.  And we will draft in his memory.

Don't worry about his teams or the draft - we'll figure something out.  

If you're not able to particate, let your team autodraft and come back to it later.

Condolences to the family.

Update: The Colonel will be taking over the Pioneers for the draft and the rest of the season.
