You fell victim to one of the classic blunders.
This was actually going to be a private message.
He is the architect of the MBBRL. He is the master of organization. He is the Einstein of fantasy knowledge. He is the Wil of White atop the Golden Mountain.
For a while now, Wil has warned us that his tenure in the MBBRL, as well as on this SportsHoopla Message Board was winding its way down to a close. He posted this just prior to the NFL playoffs:
Swan song? Ironic that he chose the same 'label' as Led Zeppelin, which even funded Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
Part of me wants to congratulate you on your endeavors and wish you well.
But another part of me - a larger part of me - knows that if this is Wil's final days, then the MBBRL, the message board, and myself on a personal level, are going to suffer a huge void.
You have been the driving force behind many of the events and conversations on this board. Many of us followed you here from CBS. Particularly me.
I would hate to talk you out of your decisions. But I want to talk you out of your decisions.
Perhaps shedding the rankings game and all of the graphs that go along with it is a start. Perhaps setting a limit on MBBRL participation is another option. I can't imagine the MBBRL without a hint of Wil.
Say it isn't so. Please say that you've made some adjustments and can squeeze one league into your weekly schedule. P-L-E-A-S-E
If this shameful, self-serving attempt is not working, well then, maybe humor is needed...

And sure, count me in. It will be my fantasy swan song. (Although Fantasy Swan Song sounds like something for five-year-old girls at a princess party.)
