Uh, yeah, thanks but no thanks...

For as much as I think Sosa will pick it up, I don't see that enough of a reason to trade Andruw Jones...

The Varitek-Piazza part, once I looked at the season stats, were closer than I thought...

Not enough to make a difference though....

varitek would have been a nice addition to your team

[redblkwht]

D Lee goes down tonight..

see what happens with him
tomorrow i guess.

[tjvhou812]

where is everybody

[redblkwht]

no clue, lurking around myself..
lol TJ-

[POJO_Risin]

Jesus Christ...lots of pulled offers before I even looked...lmfao...y'all crack me up...

[POJO_Risin]

Lee will be back tomorrow...if not for tonights game...

[redblkwht]

gonna have to give ya a nickname..
48hrs..lol;)

[WARF]

Yo red, we actually did a trade today.

Even though I will probably drop Eckerstein... I think Jones for Renteria was good straight up...

[POJO_Risin]

Okay Cleopatra...real original...lmfao...

[WARF]

Pojo... wanna do Chavez for Schmidt still?

[POJO_Risin]

48 hours?

RBW...that deal couldn't have been up for half a day...and I can't get to it from work you dumbass...only the e-mail...the site is blocked...

[WARF]

I just got Jim Thome for free today...

Delgado is on the trading block too...

[POJO_Risin]

Who else would you take for Chavez?

[WARF]

I need a pitcher.

[WARF]

I'll take Garcia...

OR if you wanna deal Bartolo Colon... i\ll give you Aramis....

[POJO_Risin]

I'd really have to think about any of those guys...let me go and look right now...

[WARF]

I've got a shitload of talent rotting on my bench....

I need to upgrade my starting rotation...

All of these players are on the market... but not both at any position,,,

Pujols or Delgado...

Aram or Chavez...

Cantu....

[POJO_Risin]

Okay WARF...I've got a deal in the back of my head...

but for a moment...a brief moment...

let me ask you this...

what do you want for Pujols?

just a straight deal for Pujols...

[POJO_Risin]

That's where I'll start...

[WARF]

Maybe Guerrero... I just don't know if he's worth a trade straight up...

So I thought of a few deals...

Soriano for Cantu & Chavez...

Schmidt for Chavez...

Soriano for Cantu & Chavez...

Aram for Colon

Garcia for Chavez..

I mean shit... take your pick or throw me a deal...

[WARF]

Honestly with my free pickup of Thome today... we he gets off the injured reserve... I will have Delgado, Pujols and Thome...

If you want Pujols.... I can manage to live with Thome & Delgado...

[POJO_Risin]

Again...lmfao...say I wanted Pujols...just for fun...

I haven't pushed you on Albert yet...this year...

so here it is...near the break...

what does it take to snake out Pujols from your grips...

[POJO_Risin]

Yo WARF...we're having a lightning storm from hell...I have to hop off the computer for a few...I'll be back on TONIGHT...as soon as this storm blows over...

[WARF]

Lol.... it seems like Lee is about to go on the DL...

How about Delgado for Buerhle ???

I think Vlad for Pujols is a bit too risky.... despite it is slightly uneven... Vlad is too injury prone....

[WARF]

Alright

[POJO_Risin]

Holy fuck is it coming down...remnants of Cindy I think...fuck...see you guys in a little bit...

[POJO_Risin]

WARF...let me figure out which pitcher I want to rid myself of...and we'll go from there...expect a deal from me today...

[WARF]

Okay, but I am gonna be offline by 930 est.

[WARF]

30 minutes and countin...

[Eyes of the Night]

Yo Risin, glad I could tune in this week seeing the comp I have!

[Eyes of the Night]

and for a 1000 all time posts? ...

Survey says!!!?

[Eyes of the Night]

Full member status! Niiice;)

[POJO_Risin]

Sorry WARF...it was fucking ass crazy last night...and didn't want to blow out my PC...fucking tornados...heading right for the homefront...

normally...I'd be out there fucking chasing them...

but damn if having kids doesn't change your thinking...

going to throw you an offer today...in the next few minutes...

[POJO_Risin]

...and Eyes...lmfao...you ALWAYS show up when we play...'cept for last time...when you kicked my ass from afar...

[DlocRoth]

Jesus..the clams knock the shit outta the ball...

I'm having a very good week offensively but can barely keep up.

[POJO_Risin]

The Clams are one motherfucker of a tough ass team...

as are the Swing...both playing much better...there really isn't a toss team in this league...

it's a better league than last year...

and more deals...

[POJO_Risin]

Alright WARF...let me know...

[Eyes of the Night]

funny shit indeed specially sitting here smoked ... live shit binge n' burge while broken down n dirty dressed in rags yo ...

[POJO_Risin]

Good to see the old stoned Eyes back...lmfao...

[Troy]

I think it will be down to the wire on Sunday DLoc.

[POJO_Risin]

I am guaranteeing a fucking Stoner win...my team is on the verge of exploding...the fuckers...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Your Lou Holtz act gets old, ya know.... ;)

[POJO_Risin]

I'll stop it as soon as my team stops sucking asshole...

you know...like last year...when I won the league...

[DlocRoth]

Yeah, it could go either way...

Basically we could tie or someone could win 10-1 LOL

[DlocRoth]

Holy shit!!

Is that the Gipper I see?

[POJO_Risin]

WIN...WIN...WIN...

and in true fashion...my 7-2 lead falls to 5-4...

prediction?

tomorrow...Eyes takes the HR and RBI from the tie we are in...and goes up 6-5...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

I rest my case....

[POJO_Risin]

Va...Va...Va...

You should be pleased that my "Holtz act" is for real so far this year...

usually you start bitching about my act when I pass you...

you're starting early this year...

;)

[Va Beach VH Fan]

LOL, hopefully that day won't come this year.....

[POJO_Risin]

My point is...usually I'm bitching while my team is in first...not fifth...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

And you call me cynical....

[POJO_Risin]

Your reaching...

I hate it when I'm right...motherfuck...

[DlocRoth]

I'm clinging to a 6-4 lead....

Fucking Haffner is killing me...

[POJO_Risin]

Man...Hafner went into a slump quickly...he was hotter than fuck at the beginning of the week...I know he had a big day on the 4th...I honestly haven't been paying much attention to him since...

[POJO_Risin]

Beltran with another dinger today...

he only has 10...

and Pedro is on the hill...

the significance?

Beltran has hit 8 or 9 of his HR's while Pedro is on the hill...

pathetic really...

[Troy]

Hafner this week: 7runs 10hits 4hr 9rbi .455avg

I think DLoc will pull it out though, my pitching isn't delivering this week.

[POJO_Risin]

Oh...i thought he had hafner...lmfao...

Yeah...hafner is certainly on fire...to bad the team couldn't follow suit and lost 3 of 4 to the fucking Yankers...

damn it...

[tjvhou812]

who wants piazza

[POJO_Risin]

Didn't you just pick him up off waivers?

[DlocRoth]

Originally posted by POJO_Risin

ROFL...nice try....

At least wait till he's not on the waiver front page anymore...

Jesus....

[POJO_Risin]

I coulda used him a few weeks ago...

[POJO_Risin]

I'm in the market for a 3rd baseman...if anyone is interested...let me know...

[DlocRoth]

Originally posted by POJO_Risin

Quit playin games with me dude...;)

[POJO_Risin]

I'm serious hombre...I have a vision...lmfao...whether it works or not...that remains to be seen...

but I have a vision...

I'm thinking of dealing a pitcher as well...for a 3rd baseman...and I'd be open to deal anyone...if the 3rd baseman is right...

[DlocRoth]

You still lookin for a stop gap 3B?

Or a game changer?

Just curious..

[POJO_Risin]

That depends on what's being asked of me...

[POJO_Risin]

To be more direct...I'm thinking a top 5-10 kinda guy...to be honest...

and It could just be a guy hot this year...or an established guy...

but I'm upping my thinking on the 3B...

like I said...I've had a vision...

dare I ask who your 3B is?...lmfao...because it's starting to sound like you've had a vision...either that...or it's still that bad heroin I sent you...

[POJO_Risin]

And anyone that doesn't think this league is equal...look at the W/L records from last week...

This is going to be an interesting run down the stretch...very interesting indeed...

[POJO_Risin]

Yo DLoc...what do you think of the Twins trading for Bret Boone?

I think it's interesting...because I really think Soriano is going to be in play come the break...and I THINK that will take them out of the running for him...

[DlocRoth]

I've got Glaus...we've talked about him before but you wanted just a rinky dink 3B...

[DlocRoth]

Originally posted by DlocRoth

[DlocRoth]

I like Boone...

He could have a resurgence.

He loves hitting in the Dome.

He can't be any worse than what we've got....

Fucking Luis Rivas just got his FIRST extra base hit of the year last weekend.. Jesus..

What's with Soriano?

[POJO_Risin]

Well...there's a lot of talk about his contract...and about wanting to dump it...

and there's a strong belief that Soriano doesn't want to stay in Texas...

so if things proceed as they are...and Texas continues to swoon behind Oakland and LAA...than there's a strong belief that a team such as NY or Boston would go after one of their week positions...

Cleveland would be in the mix too...as the original rumor I'd heard was that Hart had called his old club about a few of the pitching prospects that they have...and Soriano's name came up...

[POJO_Risin]

I'd be interested in Glaus...but you don't have a backup 3B...and I don't want to part with offense right now...

I'm in an opposite frame of mind as I was earlier in the year...

I'm willing to deal a starter...a good one...for a 3rd sacker...and I know I have a guy or 2 you'd probably want for Glaus...but I also know that you don't want waiver fodder for a 3B...

[DlocRoth]

I might consider scouring the wire...

Who's arm would you consider sending my way?

[DlocRoth]

Boone is a Twin..

The deal will be announced tomorrow....

Details are sketchy at this point..

Apparently Seattle is paying 4.3 of his 4.6 mil contract.

No word on what Seattle gets.

[POJO_Risin]

Well...as god as my witness...every fucking starter I have has just about the same ERA...the same WHIP...and would have the same wins...if not for the teams they were playing on...except for my "ace," Schmidt...who looks like...as I said earlier in the year...me pitching out of my asshole...

Glaus...I don't know where I'd rank him on my list of 3B...

let's see...ARod...Blalock...Mora...ARam...

Glaus would probably be below those guys...because of his average...

So I suppose it would depend on your flavor...

[POJO_Risin]

Oh...I know...I saw that earlier today...

probably not much...but if they dealt to the Twins...the Twins must have thought someone else was "waiting" for him...

and honestly...I wouldn't doubt it was Cleveland...because Boone would have probably chosen to play with his brother back in Ohio over the Twins...

I have no problems with Belliard...he's a good, scrappy player...but I'd like him better in the utility role...

[DlocRoth]

Yeah, fuck it...

I can't replace Glaus...

And pitching isn't a major need of mine..

[DlocRoth]

Well, like I said...

The Dome is his best hitting park.

And yeah, I like Belliard also as a utility guy. It suits him.

[POJO_Risin]

Wow...I didn't expect you out that early...

and I opened up my door of under 4 ERA starters...

[DlocRoth]

Well, I win almost every week in wins.....

And I checked the wire for 3B's..

Chad Tracy doesn't make me feel all gooey inside, and he's the best available.

Unless you don't want Buehrle...ROFL

[POJO_Risin]

Can't deal my ace...

[DlocRoth]

Didn't think so.

Good day, sir.
I said GOOD DAY! lol

[POJO_Risin]

lmfao...

when Bedard comes back...let me watch a couple of starts...and maybe we can get a trade deadline deal rollin'...

SS's at a premium.

Shit, Hideki Matsui is my Manny...

Oh yeah, and a little Carlos Lee...

They both have comparable #'s to Manny.

With the exception of Vlad, an OF is an OF.

By the way, for those names you want from my team, we'd be talking about Isringhausen from you, not Lidge...

YOU raised the bar there..

[POJO_Risin]

WARF...love you man...but I really...really don't need a 1b...

[POJO_Risin]

...at least focus on the positions I actually need...lmfao...you threw many scenarios all involving 3B...

and then you send me a deal for a 1B...

[WARF]

Would you do Colon for Aram?

[POJO_Risin]

Why do you want Colon more than Garcia?

[DlocRoth]

Cuz he's gay?:confused:

"Me, I'd take the colon, every time.":D

[POJO_Risin]

lmfao...

[DlocRoth]

Bout time we have baseball again.

So now I must commence whipping your ass...

All you do is bitch about how much you hate your team...

Let's see how "bad" they are...

Watch you win 11-0;)

[DlocRoth]

Dang...Even with the short week, I'm still getting 6 starts against you.

[DlocRoth]

Nevermind...you got 6 as well..

[POJO_Risin]

I don't hate my team...

I think it is the most underachieving piece of shit I've ever had...

[DlocRoth]

Well fine...

Let em go to Lake Placid NEXT week then.

Oh and happy birthday tomorrow.

Don't forget TO forget to get a lineup in.

all my best bro :eatit:
36?

[POJO_Risin]

34

[POJO_Risin]

Well...I had an okay offensive day...no fucking power though...

and my staff did alright...couple of saves...but only win from my first 3 starts...because that fuckhead Penny got tossed after 3 innings...bastard...

I'm up 8-2 early...

[POJO_Risin]

and my team is a notorious weekend shitter...so an early congrats DLoc...

[DlocRoth]

Originally posted by POJO_Risin

Fuck that bro...

My team is just as bad of a weekend team as yours. I'm always bitchin about being up 9-2 on Thursday, then finishing 5-6.

LOL I hit under a buck yesterday.

[WARF]

Sorry for the rejection pojo... I'm thinkin we could work out a BIGGER DEAL!

[POJO_Risin]

You know what DLoc...it's funny you say that...because you are right...

if there's one team that's a shittier weekend team than mine...

it's yours...lmfao...

So here's to the 2 shittiest fucking weekend teams in the business...

may we end up in a tie...so we both can keep on bitching...

[POJO_Risin]

Originally posted by WARF

WARF...I have no problems with you wanting a bigger deal...

but I want you to realize a couple of things...

1. In my eyes...my 1 need right now is a 3rd baseman...

2. In my eyes...Freddie Garcia will be the best of the 3 pitchers hot for Chicago right now...have thought it from the start of the year...not sure why.

3. Send me the deal...so I can take a gander...realize WARF...I WON'T stack up in one position...

c'mon hombre...it's my fucking birthday weekend...hook an old man up you bitch licker...lmfao...

[tjvhou812]

pojo, tracy is a free agent, and a good 3rd baseman

[POJO_Risin]

Yeah...I know...he's out there...

but I'm officially looking for a gamebreaker...and am willing to give up one of my top 4 pitchers to get one...

I rank all 4 about the same...so I'd be willing to look at any of them for the right price...so all you fuckers with 2 good 3B...give my team a look...

WARF...you do get first dibs though...

[tjvhou812]

i got the same problem pojo
no 3rd baseman

[DlocRoth]

TJ...I'm keeping Witten..

I'm locking him up.

[Fairwrning]

i graduated high school in 84'...geez...

[POJO_Risin]

well...actually...I was 13 21 years ago today...but hey...who's counting...

I saw KISS when I was 8...

I saw Aerosmith when I was 11...

and AC/DC and Van Halen when I was 12...

lmfao...peppered in between those were beach boys and I think Sheena Easton was in there somewhere...and a bunch of other people...oh...Journey...with Bryan Adams...

I was lucky as a kid...

The wonderful joy of living next to my female babysitters who loved Rock and Roll...there were 4 sisters who lived next to me...who babysat me until we moved...and would take me to concerts with them...and Tribe games (they were our season tickets...but what can you do)

Moved after that...and didn't see another show until I was in high school...

[POJO_Risin]

WARF...look...

2 things...

1. You don't feel any pain in that...but I do...say what you want about your guy and how hot he is...but he's your #2 3B...

2. You are asking for my hottest pitcher, who you and I both know is my hottest pitcher...and more than likely...my best pitcher...and a notorious 2nd half pitcher...

besides...it's the general principal of the deal...not going to give you a #2 draft pick for a guy you got off of fucking waivers...

I sure as fuck hope that wasn't your BIG deal...lmfao...

[DlocRoth]

LOL we should stick WARF and Tj into a room together and see who can hammer out the lowest lowball deal the fastest...

For football TJ just "offered" me Jake Plummer for Jason Witten.. :D

[DlocRoth]

Oh yeah, Pojo..

Did you lose all your friends money last night?

I was rolling like a motherfucker...

2 others drop...and I'm up against a fucking pair of 2's...he stays in with a pair of fucking 2's...

so it goes Ace, 5, King...I have 2 pair...Ace King...he has fucking 2 twos...bang...next card is a two...I fucking lose to a goddamned 3 of a kind...2's...fucking 2's...

WHO FUCKING STAYS IN WITH TWO'S!!!!!

[POJO_Risin]

WARF's deal wasn't farfetched...but he full well knows why I won't do that deal...

[DlocRoth]

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Poj, you fookin' bastard !!!!

You grabbed Duke SECONDS before I tried !!!!

He looks like the real deal, bro....

[POJO_Risin]

hahahahaha...

I almost picked him up after his last win...just wanted to make sure he was sticking with the big club...

watched the game today...and thought...wtf...

but Va...hombre...I'd be glad to make a deal for him...;)

[POJO_Risin]

I picked him up in my keeper league a couple of weeks ago...

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Nah, I don't need him THAT bad...

[WARF]

Chavez for Schmidt Pojo?

[POJO_Risin]

I see that deal WARF...but no...I'm not going to trade my 2nd round pick...who's pitching really...really well...and is a notorious 2nd half pitcher...

for a guy you picked up of the waiver wire.

Now I will concede that Chavez is a good ballplayer...great ballplayer even...and SHOULDN'T have been on the waiver wire...

but bro...you gotta feel pain in the deal...and quite frankly...you won't be losing anything...and I'd be losing arguably my best pitcher...

but you aren't getting Schmidt for him...or Colon...or Buerhle...

[WARF]

Ah shit, you remember I picked him off the wire! LOL

[POJO_Risin]

lmfao...

only because I had the damn button ready to click on him 1,000 times...

WARF...I'm not saying I wouldn't deal for him...I just don't think he's worth a #1 guy...

so yeah...I would deal for him...

[WARF]

Alright pojo... happy birthday....

Now take the deal...

I promise you will win in this deal... cuz I am gettin' the pitcher!

[WARF]

iT WILL BE REVENGE FOR THE CABRERA DEAL LAST YEAR!

[WARF]

I'll bet a millon dollars pojo has his finger on the trade button... but won't press it.... and it is an even deal.

[POJO_Risin]

I haven't looked yet...but I can guarantee you that it's going to be someone that I don't want to deal...lmfao...

let me go in and take a look at the pain factor...

[POJO_Risin]

Wow...okay...there's pain on both sides...

now WARF...you just have to give me awhile to weigh both sides...lmfao...

I promise...I'll let you know before the end of the night...

[WARF]

Aram is alot of power... and a TOP 3 3rd basemen... with the exception of A-ROD and Ensberg... maybe top 2... when Ensberg comes back down to earth!

Atleast you got one final outing from him today. LOL

Let me know...

[POJO_Risin]

Pondering as we speak...

and a great start it was...

[WARF]

Will this be revenge for Halladay last year.... ???

I really don't wanna part with Aram... I just need a good pitcher.

[WARF]

Wade Miller has been a disapointment since returning off the DL... and Odalis Perez too.

[POJO_Risin]

Harden looked good though...

[WARF]

Let me know In 5 minutes before I log off.

I'm gonna pull the deal... cuz I won't have a chance to update my team... when it shifts all the planets out of alignment... aka... my pitching rotation.

[WARF]

This is Harden's year.

I've had him the past two years waiting patiently.

[WARF]

hmmm.... Zach Duke... I almost picked him up in replace of Odalis.... but he's only got two career starts.

[WARF]

I'm loggin' off in two minutes...

[WARF]

what does pojo do... does he take Aram.... or does he not....

[WARF]

I'll keep in up overnight....

Insert the jeopardy music now...

[WARF]

Maybe I'll trade for Zach Duke.... lol

[Va Beach VH Fan]

Might not be so funny....

That guy has "the goods"....

I agree Va, and I wasn't making a joke.

I actually had my finger on the pickup button... I just think he's a season away before making a big impact... plus he's on the shitty pirates.

[WARF]

His finger must still be on the button.... sorry for all this stress pojo!

You and me both, that rat bastard Pojo beat me to it by seconds...

I was going to click the add button, then looked one more time at who I was going to drop, and by the time I did it, the bastard had hit the button...

The bastard.... ;)

[ALinChainz]

I need a reliever, and I'm out of moves.

Will listen to any offer.

[WARF]

Damn Al, I'll vote for a maximum move extention.

Your team was on the verge of making a huge 180!

Now your all out of moves.

But didn't pojo say you could make more moves if it was cleared by him.

[ALinChainz]

I am all for staying within the rule rules we all agreed to.

It's just I kept trying everything I could to get my ass out of last place, was beset by injuries too.

If trading is the way I have to go, I'll do it. I'm down to Rivera of the Yanks for clsoers, as Percivel is now injured and may even retire.

I know I won't win this thing, just want to compete so other teams won't be able to roll over me and so I can make it tough against the teams vying for a playoff spot.

You know, the integrity of the competion thing. :D

[WARF]

Well Al, I am willing to trade with you.... but I am having a hard enough time trading player for player.... let alone a multi-player trade in which you offered me.

[ALinChainz]

No problem ... I usually get a couple trade offers from you a week so at least now you know what I'm looking for ... lol.

[WARF]

I might be able to trade one of my relivers... maybe Reitsma... not sure if you want him though... he was in the hot seat a couple weeks ago... now he is pitching lights out,,,,

[WARF]

Have we reached a verdict pojo?

[POJO_Risin]

I'll allow a deal for Al...

WARF...I can't open up Yahoo...

[WARF]

It's a shame about Al using up all his moves, cuz he team is finally turning the corner.

[POJO_Risin]

I'd open up transactions...if I didn't think people would take advantage of it...

[POJO_Risin]

It's been interesting watching the transaction movement though...the differences in move making between some teams...

[POJO_Risin]

I fucking can't get into Yahoo and it's pissing me off...I'm getting a local server error...whatever the fuck that means...

[WARF]

Well for me, it was never about cheating or getting an extra start from a pitcher.... it's just simply... I am constantly dropping slumpin' players for people with a hotter bat.

[POJO_Risin]

I CAN'T GET INTO FUCKING YAHOO!!!!!

[POJO_Risin]

I just got in...and bounced out...white screen...very strange...

is anyone else having problems?

[WARF]

Nope, i'm in it right now!

[POJO_Risin]

Fuck...I must have a virus or some shit...my computer is slower than fuck...

[POJO_Risin]

Either that...or AOL is doing something today...

[WARF]

Aram hit a homer today...

[DlocRoth]

WARF...can't do it.

[Va Beach VH Fan]

It's not a matter of life and death, I don't really care, but I have to ask (to keep up my cynical attitude according to Pojo)...

What was the point of creating a limit for moves, then turn right around and allowing further moves....

Shall we assume that if anyone else gets to the limit, they'll be allowed to make additional moves ??

I'm not trying to be a hardass, but seems to defeat the purpose...

[ALinChainz]

I do not want any exceptions made for me.

I'd finish last before I'd have that.

The rules are the rules, and if trades are part of that, then that is that.

I will awlays keep a line-up in, the best I can field.

You aren't being a hardass VA, not in the least.

I got 3 other teams that are no where near this bad. Shit happens, I used my moves trying to win, period.

I'm cool with it all. :cool:

[Va Beach VH Fan]

No, no, Poj already said it's cool, I got no problem with it...

I'm just saying we should have seen this coming, collectively....

[WARF]

If it helps AL, me and red should be out of moves by the end of this month or early august!

[redblkwht]

including you warf ill still have 5 more by sept.

my due adjustments thats it..
it wouldnt become
an EOTN 2004 all over again.
i dig my team!

[DlocRoth]

TJ...sent ya 1.

If you want Glaus, here we go.

Anybody else...

I also will put Marcus Giles on the table.

I'm 81-81 and here comes the shake up.

[Fairwrning]

my 2 cents on the # of transactions..nothing personal against anybody at all..but...the limit was clearly set at 40 moves..40..:donkey:

[WARF]

Carlos Delgado is on the trading block... send me an offer... I want a pitcher.

Someone ranked inside the top 60.

I already sent out some offers.

[POJO_Risin]

Va...I said at the beginning...I'd allow moves for injuries...

and that the only reason for having the transaction limit was to curb the pitching swaps...

I also said that I didn't want the limit set to 40...but it was the most it would allow that wasn't unlimited...

that being said...I could care a less either way...

as I've said from the start...some leagues allow rampant moves...which I have no problem with...I just don't like leagues that allow pitching swaps...and especially don't like fielding the e-mails that I got last year consistently bitching about it...so I took care of it this year. I would have preferred the number around 60 or so...but what can you do.

You gents...just to let you know...I'm more than likely not going to be around much...so if you throw me a deal...leave it there for a bit...

and I'll post information on football deals as well...

[WARF]

Hey pojo,

I removed the trade proposal, because I figured you didn't wanna lose your pitcher since we're playing each other this week.

[tjvhou812]

warf that trade seems fair, lets get it done

[POJO_Risin]

No...that's not it FORD...I would have done it in a second...I just pissed around...

you ended up getting a better pitcher IMO...anyways...

I think Carpenter is one of the top 2 pitchers in the game right this second...

[POJO_Risin]

The Trade is pushed through gentlemen...make sure you set your rosters...

WARF...still interested in Chavez...I know that you probably don't want to deal him at this point...but let me know...I still need a 3B...

[ALinChainz]

Baseball sucks dirt-dragging donkey dong.

:D

[POJO_Risin]

I really wanted Ramirez...

[POJO_Risin]

It was my own fucking fault...I coulda had him...damn it...

does anyone have a fucking 3rd baseman they want to deal...goddamn it...

[POJO_Risin]

Troy...who are your fucking 3b?

[tjvhou812]

pojo, you interested in shane hillinbran

he has pretty good numbers

[tjvhou812]

troy you want hillenbrand for clemens?

[POJO_Risin]

Not much interest in him...he's really not much better than the guys I have 3B eligible...

What else do you have available?

[tjvhou812]

Originally posted by POJO_Risin

K. Mench (Tex - OF)

S. Sosa (Bal - OF)

P. Nevin (SD - 1B)

[POJO_Risin]

Alright...no real interest there...

i gave up the best pitcher in the NL to get him

[POJO_Risin]

Dude...I had an offer on the table for the All-Star starter in the other league for nearly a week...

like I said...you got the deal because I didn't act...

it was my own fault...

[POJO_Risin]

You're gonna have to offer up a bit more than you are to get one...and I have a slew...

[DlocRoth]

POJO...would you give up one of your Sox arms?

If not, I may have something else in mind.

To the rest of you fuckers...

I'm going in a new direction..

On the table for the Eggs...

Marcus Giles 2B
Troy Glaus 3B
Paul Konerko 1B

I want a 10 game winner, but may settle for the right guy elsewhere.

[DlocRoth]

LOL Sounds like a personal add.

[tjvhou812]

warning, sent one your way bro

[Fairwrning]

let me mull that over man..i kinda like my team as is...

[tjvhou812]

Originally posted by fairwrning

I hear ya, but that could help us both out

[POJO_Risin]

I think I probably would give up one of those arms...

[POJO_Risin]

Yo TJ...I don't know what arm you are going after...but you are damn silly if you aren't looking at my team...there honestly isn't a freakin' guy on my club that isn't a good...quality starter...

but I don't want Hillenbrand...

[DlocRoth]

He's been tryin to peddle Hillenbrand for months..LOL

Every time we talk that dude is always included....

POJO...sending one...

[tjvhou812]

Hillenbrand got good numbers
