Hi all,
I would like to begin this post by saying thank you. Thank you to Alex, the rest of the commissioners, and the league. The past seven or so years (seriously, I've lost count) I've really enjoyed being in this league. At the beginning, it was an incredible escape for me, I enjoyed having a place where I could get away from all the things going on in my life and just talk sports. Though we've never met, I consider you guys to be my friends and this has been an incredible journey.
That being said, it is time for me to end my time as the General Manager of the Detroit Tigers. I've thought about making this decision for a year or so now and decided that now is the time. I totally understand why so many players have difficulties retiring, it is certainly a tough thing to do. But, the bottom line is I haven't been nearly as active as I should be these past few years, and in general I think the Detroit Tigers deserve a more committed General Manager. Fantasy sports has taken a back seat in my life and I just no longer have the time I did to commit to a league as phenomenal as this one.
I hope at some point in my life I can come back to this league more committed. This league has incredible longevity and I don't see that changing. I want to thank Alex again. You really pour your heart and soul into this league and none of my experiences would have been possible without you. I wish you the best of luck with this league and in life.
Thanks again for everything. I'll check back every now and then to say hi.
Go Brewers,
Jacob

We understand and good luck; thank you for being committed for so long. Hopefully I can be here as long as you were and be seen as a staple to the league like I looked at you as. Thank you for everything friend.

Best of luck to you Jacob. If you ever do come back to the league, please make sure that it’s not in the AL Central . Wishing you great things in life.
