Since he's unfortunately resigning from the league, I just wanted to take the time to thank Jesse for everything he's done for this league throughout the first three seasons. As an original GM, commissioner, and the 2nd ever pro-gm World Series champion, Jesse has left an indelible mark on this league that will not soon be forgotten.
Cheers Jesse, wishing you the very best of luck in the future!

Totally second that. It's always unfortunate when a GM resigns, but Jesse's influence in the league as both a GM and a commissioner can't be overstated: two trips to the playoffs, a World Series title, a 45-18-3 career record (fourth best all-time), a founding member of the league, a fellow commissioner who has advised me on a number of occasions and helped the NL run seamlessly on Yahoo...
Jesse is a good friend of mine from back in college though and although he won't be in the league any longer, I'll still be in touch with him and will be sure to keep you up-to-date with his goings on, and vice versa.
I'm sorry to see him go but I appreciate that he made what he felt was the best decision for himself and for the league, and I truly appreciate that he (as well as Brian, the former Braves GM) took the time to let me know personally that he'd be stepping down rather than just disappearing quietly. While we never like to lose GMs, it makes it much easier when the GMs let us know so that we can start the replacement process quickly and aren't left hanging.
Best of luck to you Jesse!
