In what is becoming a regular occurrence, the most recent GM of the Mumbai Metro Stars of the UMEBA has been plucked up by a BBA squad.

There will be much rejoicing in the new Madison front office if Mick somehow opts out.

One of the problems with doing any kind of preview is that you have to make some assumptions for the other team(s). I was worried I would be off on your rotation but I gave it my best shot

That's the big issue with not using playoff rosters. You're forced to DFA/waive/release players when you shouldn't have to do that.

my team is proof that defense doesn't quite matter yet. It will soon, but for now a murderer's row of an offense can win a title.

I'll take "Quotes That Didn't Age Well" for $2000, Alex.

Sorry Will. Madison had to win a few before I departed. We had a team meeting and agreed we couldn’t finish in last my last season here.

Yeah this puts me in an even more interesting situation. It'll be tough to decide which direction to take the team.

A UMEBA poll??? Yay!
