Tony Kornheiser: Wilbon, it's the ladddieees. I wish Canada had ladies.

Michael Wilbon: Tony, you haven't been within a foot of a woman in 10 years.

Tony: I know, married life does that.

KoZ: There can be only one person from WV, and it's not you slyde-piece.

Koz whats your problem with me and the sim leagues? Everytime you say anything it goes back to the sim leagues. Blah Blah Blah tankin, blah blah blah.

I'll say it ONCE more and then be done with it. Most of my spects came from getting lucky from the draft or teams wanting my pieces. My team didnt have the depth to continue and was struggling, there was no point in really robbing peter to pay paul so I threw it out there that everyone was available for the right price and surprisingly everyone except Wade (and I did have 1 trade for him shot down) had interest and people threw good/great spects at my feet for them. Could I have possible rearranged the deckchairs and extended it another year? Maybe, but I had no money for FAs, no real FAs were getting to FA, and guys werent getting any younger.

Following that again there werent any real big time free agents that would been long term solutions for me so I signed more young guys in hopes of finding some role guys. Never had less than a full roster (barring short injuries) and really didnt sit on many prospects when they were "ready". Should I have been more cautious with Richardson? He lost movement due to the shitty year he had in the majors. Care to comment on that KoZ? Or the fact I called EVERYONE up in September in s3sl and kept Hickmon up even though I planned on him starting at aaa with his offseason production or the fact that Lizardo while not fully developed will be in the middle of the order immediately, or the fact that Gehring and Nutt have been up with the major league club since I acquired them. So honestly what could I have done differently tell me. I am still waiting.

Im sry for hijacking this but Im just getting sick of KoZ trashing me about something I had to do.

Easy answer: It rattles your cage.

Easy answer: It rattles your cage.

Please. Only reason it remotely bothered me is that of all people Mr Trade Teams here tries to cheapen what I was able to accomplish.

It took me all of a minute to type that. Not that long for me to do that.

Views From Somewhere

Keith Jackson: Whoa Nelly! We've got a barn burner here.

Chris Berman: It's the "Black Widow" Slyder versus "Hot Hot" Hot Corner Gurl! From...!

Tom Jackson: Eastern Oregon!

John Kruk: Chris, those might be the worst nicknames I've ever heard. Your analysis makes me look like Buster Olney.

Buster Olney: I'm too intelligent to work for ESPN.
