His concept of LGR was great he just chose the wrong trainer.

The problems with Diodoro had nothing to do with my decision.
Yes, it's true I've been on a downward spiral.
There are very few things in the world more humiliating than being fired.
It's taken all the fight out of me.
I think LGR could have been GREAT fun.
But it started to feel too much like work.
I considered So. Cal but as CJ correctly pointed out. It would be tough for me to say with a straight face that it would be fun.
I would have had to make tough decisions regarding Robertino, however my inclination would have been to retain him.
Sanctions are part of any sport when there's such a fine line between competitive edge and rule breaking.
There are many trainers out there who are thriving with owners who are the elite of the industry that haven't been dropped. The biggest names.
I like and respect Robertino. He works very hard and his success is undeniable.
But that's all moot now.
The thought of fighting those battles, or any battles, for that matter is simply too daunting. My will to fight is gone.
There have been many people on this site that have been extremely nice and supportive of me. Some not so much. But hey, it's the internet and I've always known that.
Thanks to each and every one of you. I wish you nothing but the best going forward. See you here, on twitter and most importantly in the biggest cash money tournaments.
