    It's pretty well-documented that I hate everyone here. That's not a dispute.

    You're not a member of our secret clan anymore so we can't tell you stuff such as this. Sorry pal.

    Ahh, but you hate some more than others. Let's not lie here.

    It's a shame that Mission has blocked that forum from me, I should have the power to see it. And when I win 8 lotteries and buy the Reds, I'll gain access to the forums. And then I'll spend 10 million dollars a year on players and be banned. It'll be fantastic.

    Vetoing Dave is a time-honored tradition which I have no shame in celebrating as often as possible.

    Oh well, enough crying over the spilt milk. It's been spilt long enough and must be sour by this point.

    I'll keep the team for now and look to make addendums to my trades to MAYBE(?) get them passed. If not, I'll continue to suffer with my atrocious bullpen and injured and below career norms. offense.

    It could be either really. I like the one I used though:

    Derived forms: spilling, spilled, spilt, spills

    According to BYU's Web site(and I've always learned when writing research papers, etc. that .edu sites are usually legit), this is how it can be said:

    It's no use crying over spilled (spilt) milk.

    Ugh huh. Yeah.

    I bet AP Style would use my way, btw. AP Style is very important for me. In other words... OK does not equal okay. "OK" is the correct form.

    now, i may not be the smartest man on earth... nor do i claim to be... but if the deal got vetoed, with this much argument and what not, i think it would be safe to assume that its close. so why not just rework the deal? personally i dont think the deal is that far off... for example, as was asked earlier in the thread, if belisle was the pitcher instead of evert, i think the deal wouldve been accepted.

    and usually 32 year olds really dont last 4-5 more years in ootp. evert's ratings will probably start to drop by 34, and he'll be a mediocre to average starter for another 1-2 years.
