    I haven't been around but I just noticed that the fantasy league changed its name to Mike Grace and I said please God hopefully this is not RSFL. I didn't have the opportunity to meet him in person but he seemed a very cool young man. He always made me feel very welcome at TS. This is really shocking. Descansa en paz Mike!

    One of Mike's friends made this video.

    "Hating the Yankees like it's a religion since 94'" RIP Mike.


    "It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."

    Wow, I was reminded of this board by today's spring training game being on TV, and figured I'd stop in since I have not since last season... and I'm shocked to see this. I've been going on message boards for 15 years now and interacted with many people on them and he has to be one of the nicest, smartest guys I've come across. He obviously seemed like someone you would want to have as your friend in real life. Game threads won't be the same.

    Hi BBEF, It's really good see you around. I still remember that you and Mike were very nice with me when I joined here. I still can't believe that this happened.

    Not been on for a while and just noticed this. I am absolutely shocked and stunned by this. He was such a lovely young man with a great attitude and sense of humour. My sincere condolences to his friends and family.

    Peace and love from Liverpool
