Our Lombardi Trophy, our Stanley Cup, is a clock that goes to the best team in the event at what really counts--changing the culture. To score the league any other way would be, with all apologies to the non-wrestling fans, akin to putting the Intercontinental Championship ahead of the WWE Championship.
Just so i dont get flamed about it, its not like i dont like the chairman's award. But i think it serves little to no part in the league. Fantasy Leagues should be about performence on the field, not off.

If you do say something that isn't just for fun or praising something, which hopefully you do, just be prepared to back up what you said.

Remember: GP is Gracious Professionalism, not Glorifiying Plesantries. Saying something negative does not mean you are evil. It could help someone out a lot.

Anything that I post is an opinion from my own mind. Some may agree with it, others may not. However do not negatively associate anyone else, including any team I work with, with my opinion.
