It is very disappointing that it has come down to this. I can't believe the World Series has not been played yet. That is ridiculous! A shame to say the least.

When I first came into the league after the 2004 season, I took over a 100+ loss Las Vegas team. At that point I didn't know much about the ins and outs of Strat but my Folsom squad only lost 98 games in 2005, I was proud. Each and every league member that I asked for help was more than willing to help and share their knowledge.

This season I finally made it to the playoffs. But it was bittersweet. We had a roll call to see who wanted to remain in the league. Pretty much everyone remained. But not everyone kept up their end of the deal. Some didn't even wish to play their games, just mailed in the year. I can't understand why folks would say "Yes, I want to be a part of the league", then continuosly let the others down by not participating. 

Being in a league with 19 other owners, it is not just about YOU. Each and every one of us owes a responsibility to each and every other 19 owners in the league. If you couldn't have held up to your end of the deal you should have left so we could find active, caring owners to participate.

I would say that most of the owners in the league are great owners, all of us are great guys. Most of us really give a damn about the AABL. But a few bad apples....Very disappointing. I just wish they had quit before it came down to this. I hope the AABL remains, I like the league, I like the owners. I love Strat. It is very disappointing that it has come down to this.

I would like to keep the league going simply because we built it from the ground up but being as busy as I am combined with the lack of interest over the past couple of years, I think it's best if we just let it go at this point. I don't have the energy to fight the lack of interest in the league during the winter time.

If someone else wants the league I'll gladly hand over all the files and the Website I created for the league. Just let me know.

For what it's worth I have all of the regular season stats for the entire time we've been playing this league.

Sorry if this disappoints everyone but I have just come to the point where I have to let it go.

Regards,

Thomas Fischer
