When I got this email tonight I thought it was spam but realized it wasn't. Laughed my way through it and didn't actually talk to anyone to get quoted or asked what name I should take. Who is Rabbi Glickman? I need to watch that episode. hahaha I took out the real names to protect them publicly.
VSSFFL NEWS RELEASE
The VSSFFL is saddened by the news that owner JC (Klompus) has folded the 12th franchise. Years of poor drafting and fan apathy have taken the once proud franchise to league door mat status. All records and stats will remain as Klompus.
On a positive note, the VSSFFL is proud to announce that Trevor Kempner has been approved by the Ownership Committee and his franchise will begin play in 2012. The Chairman of the Committee, RH, announced the "new" 12th franchise with the following comment:
"We did an extensive background check and found that he met all of the rigorous standards that we must uphold as owners. He is gainfully employed, is able to pay the entry fee and is an upstanding member of the community. Mind you - we let RT in a few years back and he hadn't held a job since the 90's. Oh yeah and there were the "Wearhouse" years when fees went missing and were not paid. However, Kempner is a local pastor and will hold the other owners to a higher moral standard." Added RH "we feel like we were able to diversify our ownership group by adding Kemper. We've pretty much tapped out the education, real estate and hulking male nurse fields and are happy to tap into the new market he provides."
Much like when the Cleveland Browns moved, Kempner will not be taking on the old moniker "Klompus." Instead, the new 12th franchise will now be called "RABBI GLICKMAN."
Kempner commented that " I am an avid fantasy player and will do my best to win a championship for the Alexis Park congregation." Mr. Hirschkorn had suggested the name "Sue Ellen Mischke - the bra less wonder" but I felt that it might be a bit inappropriate so I went with a Seinfeld character that is also a man of the cloth.

Stay tuned for another League announcement in the coming days.
THE COMMISH
I am pumped to be joining this league. Can't wait to surprise them all and tick them off in my 1st year with another FF championship. It's like my friend Janzen who invited me into his dynasty FF league and I have won 3 out of 6 years now. HAHAHA It's probably because I pray over my teams health every year and spend too much time researching players and draft strategies! :) :S
