Today, I submitted my resignation as co-GM of the Detroit Falcons. I've already done my notices and thank yous and goodbyes, but I wanted to face the public too.
Without the pretense of money or roleplaying, I'm open to questions or discussions about my time as a co-GM and with Detroit. I promise honest and complete answers, and I'll try to answer every question sent my way.

i think it's kinda messed up. there's some institutional and organizational issues going on that i'm really worried will bite the league long-term. i'm also worried about player engagement with the current cap but that's a conversation that's being had elsewhere. i'm also still worried that the 10-team expansion is unsustainable. but we won't know about that for a couple more seasons.

One of my fav gms I’ve had. You did great grok man
GCool
Sorry to hear this. I appreciate your candor, though. You're a new guy in rare form and I appreciate that more than you probably know.
Grok is a goalie God, great human, one of the smartest guys I know, and really good GM. The fact that issues on site have led him to resign is a bad look for the league considering everything he has done has been altruistic. This is a sad day, and probably a great day for Mrs. Grok getting angry sex tonight.
