Early in the season I called him a Nazi Commissioner when he wouldn't throw out my game results when I felt I had unfairly won a game vs. another user. He just said too bad.
At the end of the season we had an interesting string of emails before he booted me.
After he booted me, my friend who is still in the dynasty forwarded me this email that the Commish sent to the dynasty, but not to me. (I am the former Missouri player)

So I responded to him and the entire dynasty with this...
Unattributed Quote:
It's quite humorous (to me) and I think you'll agree that I didn't have a hissy fit at all (but that's just my opinion). I asked a few honest questions and he went off on me entirely (again, my opinion). I'm out of the dynasty so I won't bad mouth it, but I will invite any and all of you who want to join my other dynasty (since I imagine many of you do more than one dynasty) to hop on in. Let me be clear that I am not asking or encouraging you to quit this dynasty. Just to join mine also if you do multiple dynasties. It is a 4 star or less dynasty and we just finished season 2. We have 6 solid members and a couple that I will probably kick if I get replacements because they seldom play.
Anyway, I enjoyed the dynasty overall and think the commissioner does well in keeping things very organized which is important so well done in that dept. Adam. You and I don't see eye to eye on a few things but life goes on. Good luck in your dynasty. I'm sure you'll settle in with a crew of players that will make it a great one, but it's not for me. Enjoy!

My gamertag is MTB Mamba for anyone interested in joining, just shoot me a message on live. If no one is interested, no harm done enjoy this dynasty.
I have re-ordered the emails here to make it easier to read, rather than having to go from bottom to top to keep it in chronological order, but you can see the originals below.
COMMISSIONER
I have advanced into the bowl week and there are some great games. We all have qualified for bowl games and I must admit that this has been a fun but trying season. I have sent out requests for other users to join in the next season. I hope they can meet the high standards that I have set for this league. Deadline to play your bowl game is Friday night at 11:59 PM EST.
ME
I know at least one other person wasn't notified that we advanced past bowl week, and into players leaving, and then advanced through that as well without an email. It would have been nice to know that we were at that point and have an opportunity to convince our players to stay...especially since this was all done before we had even met the deadline for playing our bowl games or right at the deadline at best.
You just emailed us about having new members come in and meet the high standards you have set for this league...and then you advance on us without notice...
What's up?
COMMISSIONER
I was the last player to advance in Bowl week because my game wasn't played yet. Everyone else was ready. I wasn't aware we can convince players to stay as I didn't do that either to my team as I simply advanced. Oh well.
ME
Have you never played any dynasty this year or in any other NCAA football game?
COMMISSIONER
Spare me the attitude you insolent child. You should realize that your role in this dynasty is dispensible and will be replaced. You were foolish to call me out earlier this season and yet you come back for more. When I see your mom this evening I will tell her to change your diapers for you cuz you whine and cry too much. Don't you have papers to grade teacherman or do you want to keep arguing with me? I will verbally slay you each time publicly little boy.
ME
Are you actually serious with that response? I asked a simple question out of curiosity and you were honestly that offended by it?
COMMISSIONER
Oh you bet I was serious. I really am not a friendly person and I am a major prick when irritated. Your 2 messages were snide in my interpretation. I am not offended rather I did not like the manner you confronted me publicly as I have been hearing about it from other users thanks to a simple oversight. Thanks for playing.
ME
If that's all it takes for you to go off I fear for your students. I sent that original message as a reply all because you have publicly called out and humiliated others in this dynasty and I didn't think you should be exempt from public questioning. Add to that the fact that none of my messages have been overly critical. I can understand them being misinterpreted...it happens. Intent is easily misinterpreted in an email.
No more COMMISSIONER responses, just the email to all of you that I apparently had a "hissy fit"
Still not sure when/how I ever went off on other players? My only user vs. user matches were against Oregon and South Carolina I think it was? Both of those guys were great to play with and I certainly never went off on them.
If any of you actually read that whole thing...give me your thoughts. Am I wrong...was I actually out of place in my emails to him? He goes off as if I just raped his mother. This dude is nuts.
