I'd like to resume with as close as possible to the prior membership of the league--whatever will best accomplish that.  I would hope that the passage of time--coupled with the fact that IT"S A FREAKIN' GAME--will allow people to put any hurt feelings aside and move on.

Andy,


Thanks for the nice note. As long as it isn't an impediment to the return of anyone else, I would very much like to return to the league.

Friends,
 
I’m not sure quite how to start this note, so I’ll get right to the point.  I’m writing with hope that we can set aside any ill feelings from the 2013 USML season and begin planning our league’s 26th season.
 
Many of us have been part of this group for more than half our lives.  The league has survived longer than an average marriage.  Like any family, we have fought, fumed, and argued – sometimes with remarkable intensity.  But we’ve also had a lot of fun and shared many of our lives’ most important events together.  Without the league to connect us, I doubt we would have maintained friendships the way we have for so many years.   To me, it would be beyond sad to lose that, and it depresses me to think about a summer without the USML.
 
I am not trying to diminish any hurt feelings from last year.  Rather, I am pleading with everyone to do his best to put it in the past and move forward.  A few suggestions …
 
1.         Let’s have Mark B. will start the annual process of picking a draft date for the spring.
 
2.         No apologies, no revisiting old issues, no looking back.  Let’s buy our software (or in my case a magazine) and start putting together rosters.  
 
3.         If others think it would help, I am open to instituting a “no comment” custom on future trades.
