That said ... watch him decline it

You asked for my future catcher (who I don't have anyone in the system to replace) and the new half of my SS platoon (who I don't have anyone in the system to replace) and offered me a DH I don't need and Low-A pitching prospects in return.

Try looking at somebody's roster before offering them crap trades that make zero sense for them.

Bball tried get Fred ward, mark James, and my best SP prospect for grover white ... an awesome fielding can't hit worth **** shortstop. That was fun.

I'm guessing that was probably an equitable trade, based on your obviously deficient ability to evaluate talent.

Funny... I was trading for those players for my bench so I can release them when their salary gets to $2 mil in a few seasons. I was actively searching your roster for sucky players. You probably could have had all 3 players for your ss alone. I figured you could use the pitching. Guess not.

Btw... there is this thing called free agency in baseball... probably a good place to go to plug up those roster holes.

I remember the days when you used to make offers like that and whine that no one wanted to do a "blockbuster" with you.

I didn't whine that no one wanted to.... I whined cause every time it was accepted a **** ton of vetoers came out of the woodwork

I think the booze is really hampering your long-term memory.  Not saying situations like the one you described didn't happen, but ones the one I described absolutely did.

Well...  are you at least making the money you would expect from that time commitment?

I wish. Starting your own business, in my case, means that I lose money for a while before I make money.

Last Airbender was spectacularly bad. Not quite Happening bad though, sadly.

Yeah...  when I first saw the preview I was intrigued, but it has been getting killed.

GL with the business. Hopefully you pick up enough clients sooner rather than later and can quit the other two gigs.
