Frank announces retirement.
"I would like to Thank everyone for there support at the NPPL Chicago open. This event has left a sour taste in my mouth for paintball and I think it is time for me to take a step back and look at what I truly care about. I think that it is time for me to close this chapter of my life and focus on my future wife and kids and retire from the game that I have loved for so long."
"No fight left in this dog......."

Your passion for the game will never be forgotten!

Curious as to what this will mean for the team. Since Frank bought the team a couple of years ago from Ed Poorman and Warped Sportz.

Frank has started to sell some of his amassed paintball goodies to help pay for his upcoming nuptials. His comments about retirement came after what he felt was unfair treatment during the Dynasty/ Avalanche game.
I for one hope to high heaven he changes his mind and at least finishes out the season. I mean they had to struggle against all kinds of odds to make second. They have some amazing people who support the team and the individuals playing. Avalanche has a great squad this season but they need Frank. Make sure to tell him how much you want to see him back on the field again, even if it doesn't change his mind he deserves to know how much he's loved.

Disreguard my first thoughtless comment.
 Frank is one beast of a player. I wish I could show my support by showing up to events and rooting for my favorite team. Avalanche pulled it off making finals, that shows there is much more to come from Avalanche. Frank, do you really think it's time to go? I say, finish the season with the new blood crew, give it one more chance.

I'm happy Frank retired, he's past his prime and is kind of overweight
