Do we have the right to pick and choose?

[Reginald Rutledge]

Should we just be content with having the opportunity to play with whomever wants to play or do we have the right be discriminatory in who we spend our time with.

For some of us, we've been a part of leagues (sometimes founding leagues) but have found that it just does not appeal to us anymore. As you continue to play in these leagues year-after-year, you find that "Just maybe I want to go in a different direction" attitude is what you carry everyday. Do I have that right to get out or do I stay in it and try to make things better?

You find that you do not want to deal with people who do not support your product. Do you stay for the sake of the league or move on and do your own thing?

You find that it is taking up too much of your time, consuming weekends and sometimes holidays. Do you check out or try to make things work?

One of the big things I love about the potential to have a league is being able to play on the Internet, pla in stadiums, use my products, and pick and choose who I want to spend my final years on this earth hanging around. Is that so wrong? Or you do what you do!

I went out to eat with a friend of mine, Barry Stephenson, and my wife and we started talking about leagues. There was discussions about new leagues but Rose also let it be understood, "No league is Utopia". Maybe she's right but I also know I like to determine my own destiny in who I pick and choose.
