I usually don't like to get involved in site drama, but I think @boom brings a genuine concern to the table. It is a developmental league, they are valid concerns that could improve the quality of life of those who care about the league. I also agree that it was brought up at a sketchy time, and understand you may want to defend Kelowna because of that.

I also know you know I don't have any problems with you, and I'm sure you don't have any problems with me. I actually distinctly remember you commenting on my first article in the league, and seeing that an SHL GM was paying attention to J players got me excited for the league. I hate to bring you back here because I am quoting you, and I don't want you to take this as going after you, rather than what it actually is, which is defending @sve7en

Going after 7 is one of the worst takes in the thread. A bad teammate? Now I can't talk about his time in LAP, but in my experience with him in Carolina he was a huge reason I got as involved as I have and has made the same impact on many that have been in Carolina since. He is one of the best J GMs not because he could win a Four Star, but because he makes people love the league, become involved, give a shit. That is exactly what I think belongs in the J. Maybe he did go after you, but he is what we want as GMs in the J, and it fair for him to defend Boom in this scenario. I don't think it is fair at all to say something like that to him because of that, let alone something that I don't think you could find any evidence on remotely. I don't want you, or anybody else, to believe that isn't his main goal first and foremost, whether or not he can be stubborn, or aggressive about it.

This wasn’t about Carolina or LAP… this is a different teams experience,,,But I got heated when he came in hot…. and his time somewhere else is not a fair discussion…  I will say that 7 is a great site member in spite any back and forth I have with him in this thread (which we all know)

We had HFFO basically inactive on site apart from his one activity check to sign his active free agent contract. But he was active in the discord.

Now do I suggest closing the loophole? Not necessarily. I would however find a way to make these “AFA” have a bigger cap hit in their 4th or 5th seasons so that teams are discouraged from doing this to the point where a team can have 5+ AFAs. That or a flat limit of AFAs per team... much like the IFA caps.

how many cups did nour win vs you? really makes you think

Even though you now reside as a troll… this should be addressed… I needed a word to rhyme with fakin. So I told you to eat ‘bacon’ in a rap post?  .. that’s hardly anything to make insinuations on… I love everyone samee, doesn’t matter what race, color, sexual affiliation you are… I could care less about that.. I’m left leaning Canadian irl.. if I saw you and we weren’t thread rapping …there would be no bacon.. I’d buy ya a beer.

totally agree with this. if I was on a team like that I wouldn't be on the site at all today.

thankful I had a team that prioritized guys that wanted to be around and progress, and played me despite being a very mediocre rookie
