Tracking all of the changes from 2023 to 2024 takes some doing, especially bringing on the third division. Full visual and description below.
Names are in order of 2023 finish. All new members are in alphabetical order, outside of those who took over for a manager who declined to return to the League.
D1: LEGACY
Ian, Gio & Kevin were relegated to Mettle Division and were replaced by Ryan, Keuris & Keaton, who earned promotion. Ian and Kevin declined to return to the Relegation League altogether. Jimmy Bunch requested a voluntary demotion to try to keep Kyler from getting promoted next year. Since Gio was the only relegated team left, she retained her spot in Legacy.
D2: METTLE
Chad, Jordan & Alejandro were relegated to Bedrock Division and replaced by Alex C., Eli, and Nathan, who received honorary spots in D2. Kevin’s declination to return to the Relegation League resulted in his being replaced by Caleb Miller (formerly played in Mettle Division in 2022). Ian changed his decision to leave the Relegation League, but it was too late to back-track all of the changes occurring in Legacy (setting up puppet-commissionerships so I can run everything is a bit of a hassle) and, as a result, he will remain in Mettle Division.
D3: BEDROCK
Alejandro declined to return to the Relegation League and was replaced by Steve Collins. Outside of Chad and Jordan’s relegations, all members of Bedrock Division are newly added members.
Don’t let it be lost on you, the Relegation League has more teams than the NFL.
Best of luck to all 36 members in their aspirations for 2024.
