Hey guys,

As a former contributor of the ByrdCage, I can confirm that we have decided to shut it down. Four years ago, we were in a position to provide streamline content on a periodic basis. With increasing job responsibilities, families etc...we just couldn't dedicate ourselves to it anymore.

It is unfortunate we don't have a strong presence in forums...but I think that also correlates to the buzz around the team.This team is just ok. Reece has looked terrible at times (although I've never been a fan) and we are grossly outmatched in athleticism and experience. Dylan Windler and Benkert will be solid pickups and I expect them to contribute sooner rather than later as our pipeline for talent is thin.

Honestly I'm tired of watching guys like Laidig and Mobley contribute nothing to this team. They are not the guys I envisioned to take over after Ian, Kerron and JJ...I would say only Craig and possibly Bradds are deserving of mention.
