Ty Summers/? - Hawaiian Surge

Replaced LADANIAN VICK...won the Championship, better resume than anything else

[WilBEER]

It is Ty Summers and ME!!!

We had to do so much more to replace 3 players like LV, DJ, and Smith. Then we won the LJB.

Also, look at all of the S3 trades we made. Key one was trading Mott.

[captobvious]

Summers wrote the resume, so if it's incomplete, it's his fault. I didn't know who to credit as co-GM because, as far as I could see, several people were heavily involved. You were one. Jordan Allan and watchthis were two others.

So you essentially replaced one person?

[captobvious]

One with multiple personalities.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Where the other GMs?

[captobvious]

We put out a call for GMs to submit their resumes in the Commish office. These are the responses.

I don't think any team undr .500 is even deserving of GMOY anyways

That's silly. What if you take an 0-10 team in a brutal hard division to 4-6? Isn't that better than taking a 10-0 in an easy division and having them drop on you to 6-4?

These are just made up numbers. I'm using extreme to illustrate a point which is that the blanket statement concerning under .500 teams may need reconsideration.

[captobvious]

I agree. I would have been happy to see Lucas put himself in here. He took a team horribly over the budget and got them back into financial shape, then put them in the win column.

Maybe if that happened, but it didn't, and for Lucas his wins came against Falcons twice and Cougars..

[captobvious]

Well, they certainly wouldn't have beaten the Surge. That's about all they had left on their schedule when he took over. He got them back under budget, got their impact defenders back, and got the offense clicking somewhat.

But obviously, if you bugger off and miss the following offseason, you definitely don't deserve consideration for this award.

[Phenom]

Easy, Gino/Carter. They're both active and always update our players. Plus, they made some nice moves.

[Director Of Fun!!!!]

I have to say thunder.
We pretty much lost our entire secondary.
But we came back to come so close to winning the east again.
we made smart moves and they paid off.
plus dustin what a pick that was. he became a huge asset to ths league doing stats and not complaining once when he was fourth string.
Thunder should win it.

[Director Of Fun!!!!]

Why is this a public poll anyway?
basically you're asking which team is most active...

how is this grounds for GM of the year?
they went into the season gifted and didn't have to do anything to be successful.

[Eielson]

Maybe if this poll were best GM then this would be accurate, but as far as GMOY I don't think anybody should come close to the Thunder.
