Re: Gobbledy-Gook
Whipped in Naples: Because you have never served on the SAC, does not mean there is none. You have to be invited to attend.
Whipped in Naples: You misspelled "winner."
Whipped in Naples: Because you do not recognize a word, does not mean that word is foreign. (Foreign means from another country, like Canada.)

To all owners: the Commish has no SAC. Onerous and uninformed, indeed what a whiner! Omaha, he's all over you. I'm not even sure if the whole thing was in English! He has paragraphitis to go with his bruises.
Tongue-whipped in Naples

Picks week 1
Okay, I must step in to referee once again. As much as the Commish has taken an extraordinary amout of down time(mostly on the ground due to bike mishaps), the owners need to suck it up and give him a one-year extension to his contract. Please note the clause added that in-season hogbike riding is prohibited. Omaha needs to simmer down and let the office shake off the cobwebs. However, at a later date we must investigate the league financials in a time frame similar to the last time Manchester Ed made a league-related appearance. Now, on to the season preview. Patrick will wilt away, Cuz Omaha will make another futile run after a strong start, Luke will sniff to much cement polish, the Commish will have sore ribs throughout the year and his picks will smart as well, Ed will be silent(shocker) along with his picks, Bran will fly away with the birds, Sean will come on strong late but too-little-too-late, Kate will pick all the home teams, Windsor Di will choose after heavy wine sessions, Granby Kirk will be as accurate as he is hunting(one squirrel in ten years), Jo will get on a roll picking all the wrong teams ending in "s". Soooooooo, I guess that leaves Naples Cuz to swoop in and get that trophy back where it belongs!

Scurrilous Accusations!
As the Commissioner settles in to the new season, he wants to thank the many league members for their kind thoughts and words. It has been a difficult summer for him, with a plethora of bruised and swollen muscles, joints and bones, but his spirits are high and he takes strength from the good wishes of the vast majority of members.
Of course, Naples and especially Omaha seem to be distracted by monetary and social complaints, but Manchester, Sanford, Windsor Locks, North Charleston, Peterborough and Granby have kept their own counsel on these matters and therefore the Commissioner declares that all is well in GoZone nation.
As to the complaints, they seem to be a result of someone (Naples or Omaha) making a totally unproven accusation, followed by calling them rumors in the next post. This is not uncommon in our political system where, say, a rival will be seen leaving a pharmacy and his opponent will accuse him of having health problems (the accusation) followed by contemplation of what kinds of health problems he may have (mental illness, cancer, HIV) which are then followed by declarations that the candidate must prove he is free of them. The debate then becomes, no matter how many things he is proved to be free of, there will be yet another disease he must prove he has avoided.
As politics is an area that is not welcome on this board, or so the commissioner has been told, it would seem consistent to then avoid political strategies and tactics as well.
However, to show his magnanimity, the Commissioner has charged an intern with creating a financial page to add to the many other informative pages produced by the central office. While he cannot guarantee that this will placate the onerous and the uninformed, he can assure that it will answer any and all legitimate concerns about the league's finances.
And finally, the Commissioner is strong in his belief that he does not serve for life in his current position. He and the Senior Advisory Council welcome any and all petitions for the commissionership, accompanied of course with proof of the ability to assume the duties of publishing the schedule, the picks and the results each week in a timely manner, the procurement of engraved trophies, the publication of trophy presentation pictures, and maintenance of the email and comment notification lists.
The Commissioner extends a warm welcome to all to the new season. He would note that as critical as Naples and Omaha have been about the Commissioner's lack of punctuality, neither has of yet sent in their picks for week 1.
Here are the pics so far:

That's it?
After disappearing for some 8 months and the subject of many nasty rumors, you walk into the office and offer no explanation?
Did you hike the mountain trails from Ft. Meyers to New Hampshire? Or did you sneak off to Argentina to consort with some high priced, scantily-clad tramp you met at a motorcycle rally?
You owe the league an explanation for your absence and an accounting of our funds.
Concerned in Omaha

Welcome Back!
For all the league office staff and interns, the Commissioner welcomes the new, 2013 season to the GoZone members. He appreciates the patience and reserve of good will from the members, and he is anxious to get the ball rolling on the new season. While he realizes he may be early in his enthusiasm for the start of the season, he hopes league members will embrace this early post.
He will shortly convene a Senior Advisory Committee meeting to discuss new business and rule changes, though members should use the GoZone board to express their views on all proposed changes and rule reviews. With this in mind, here is the first week's schedule:

OK, this is getting serious!
Opening kickoff is just around the corner and still no commish.
Now I'm not an alarmist, normally, ok, maybe occasionally, but I'm worried about reports I'm getting out of Connecticut. I won't name the source, but word has it that our esteemed commish has been seen at Mohegan Sun losing large sums of money.
Each owner, with great sacrifice, pays a sizable dues fee to support the activities of the commissioner's office, i.e., office space, communications, trophies for the league winners, legal fees & body guards for the commish, and other questionable expenses.
Now, our commish has not been seen or heard from since he slipped out of Florida sometime this spring. He didn't appear at our winter meetings, made no state of the league address, and most important, has not distributed financial reports in either of the past two years.
As the senior conscious member of the league, I must call for an immediate investigation of the commissioner's office and an audit of league financials.
We must get all the information we can before we consider impeachment and possible prosecution.
I assume I have the support of all to flush out our missing commissioner?
Omaha cuz
