So long Greg

The exit of Greg Smith from the TTFBA brings the number of original league members down to 6: Ed Vidaillet of the San Pedro Corsairs, Mike Rodriquez of the NW Missouri Rednecks, Mark Liveringhouse of the NC Triad Tremblers, Chris Erath of the Tillman Rangers, Chad Weyenberg of the Muncie Packers and me.

Greg's resignation from the league will have little impact on this season because the Wausau Bomber talent was among the worst, if not the worst, in the league. However, based on his prior history, it wouldn't have been long before Wausau was back in the playoffs. Alas, we will never find out. So we look back on Greg's impressive accomplishments in the TTFBA:

Seasons: 8 (2000-2007)
Super Bowl appearances: 1 (2001)
Super Bowl Championships: 1 (2001)
Conference championship appearances: 4 (2001, 2003, 2005-2007)
Playoff appearances : 6 (2000, 2001, 2003, 2005-2007)
Division Titles: 6 (2000,2001, 2003, 2005-2007)
Seasons over .500 : 6 (2000, 2001, 2003, 2005-2007)
Seasons with 10 or more wins: 6 (2000, 2001, 2003, 2005-2007)
Coach of the Year, Seasons in the Top 5 : 4 (2001, 2003, 2006, 2007)

Greg,
Thank you for the kind comments, I want everyone to know that I enjoyed the league, the time had come for me to move on, I've been playing sports sims for 35 years and have decided to take a break from them. I wish everyone the best and will keep up with the league.
