I am old and tired. I will complete my 18th season and be finished. I hold most records. I've held more, and lost a couple. I've worked my ass off, and now it's over. My watch has ended. I loved every minute of it, and every second of this post I have been fighting back tears. This is hard. Very, very hard.

This is the hardest thing I've ever done with Aittokallio.

I guess I should just say goodbye now. 25 more games, let the countdown begin.

>:D<

Should waive the waiting period and skip the vote.&nbsp; Bowdown
Thank you for the sentiment. We haven't since S16 or so (Brandon Sawyer maybe) and won't unless we have the committee request it. I don't see myself personally waiving the wait period for myself without support from the committee and likely the public.

Thank you everybody for the warm wishes and support. I am truly grateful. This is a hard thing to do, and I will have a full presser at the end of S30 to discuss everything I've done and how proud I am.

An old man's dream ended. A young man's vision of the future opened wide. Young men have visions, old men have dreams. But the place for old men to dream is beside the fire.

He was average, at best.
