NFFA technology forensics experts review the voting

A seemingly futile rule-change vote turned into another NFFA conspiracy immediately before the 2014 draft last Thursday, when over 3,000 votes poured in - in favor of the resolution, which would have rendered the division system obsolete.
“The [Competition] Committee did not release the results before the draft, and opted to explore this vote further before we released the results,” said August West, special counsel to the NFFA Competition Committee. “The initial results showed 3,412 in favor, and 6 against; since the vote is locked to only the eight owners, we knew something was up.”
Two key pieces of evidence point to involvement by Fidalgo Island Sea Hogs owner Tirik Obobber:
- Over 3,000 votes were cast in an 8-second span Thursday; Obobber’s former activities include sophisticated DDoS and other high-volume hacking.
- Each vote contained the comment: “Oh, Peytie, Peytie, Peytie! How can I go on without you, Peytie?” (One Sea Hogs insider says that Obobber has been inconsolable with the impending loss of Peyton Manning after nine seasons in Fidalgo Island.)

Corsairs owner Mojo D has offered his technology forensics team to get to the bottom of what he described as “irregularities. The end result is that there are 6 legitimate votes against the rule change, and that’s a majority. One of the yes votes included the stipulation that the Bakers never be allowed in the playoffs, so it’s clear where the league stands. I, for one, love the division system and hope we keep it intact always."
