Let's talk a little bit about what is going on in Minnesota. The new general manager was selected, SpartanGibbless is taking over. Normally I would not have an opinion to one way or the other, nice that new GM is there, new beginning, etc, but I have been following this case from the shadows - something shady is going on.

McZ is veteran member on the site, has some controversy in his history and I´m sure some members do not see eye to eye with him, but whatever controversy happened was long time ago, look at the jobs they have given to McZ since for example, all the work he has done for Minnesota, all the activity in the forums, McZ is valuable member in this league - a user who knows a lot about the sim engine and line work, managing a team, etc - he should be given a second chance to manage a team in my honest opinion.

I have chatted with McZ little bit here and there, I know he has applied for manager jobs more than once and now this latest opportunity in Minnesota, what more can you possibly want from a manager? McZ knows the team, knows everything about running a team, but still HO in all their wisdom hands the job to someone else. Granted, SpartanGibbles knows the team, but let's not kid ourselves and think the two are on the same level when it comes down to experience on the site AND the head office knows how many times McZ has applied for a management job, if you are never going to hire the guy - why not come out and say it?

In my eyes this is bullying, you don´t have to give a job for everybody and some standards for general manager job especially are needed, but if we are completely honest - McZ is more than capable of running a team in this league. if we look at the Minnesota case, SpartanGibbless happens to be cool with some HO members, meanwhile, McZ is blacklisted and never given a fair chance.

Instead of coming out and saying anything, HO stays quiet and hopes McZ stops sending them applications. Nothing to do with leadership, shady and cowardly behavior and same goes to some of you people in Minnesota - snakes.
