I'll still disassemble you like Johnny Number 5

Boston NL

Boston (NL) is considering a bid but it will not be for 30 mil, so if you want him feel free to take him for that

I'm looking for a SP/C/MR so idk if I can afford Harden and get those...

I can't afford him. I'm cheap and stingy.

[Porter]

I could afford him but I like guys in the draft with the 1st overall.

trying to throw people off? or a liar? you decide.

no, in all seriousness...holy crap!!! His payroll is almost $20 mil higher than last year's revenue. That's a lot of ground to make up as far as increasing revenue. I think some people really underestimate the financial aspect of OOTP. And yes, I know he has FA money available still and cash at hand, but if the payroll stays that much higher than the revenue for a few seasons...just watch. of course, if he wins a title perhaps it will be worth it.

Neither, he upped his bid after I had a higher one at $26 mil per year

he said $30 mil wouldn't be him...it was. it's funny. that is all.

[Foster]

I made a bid, but I think it was about half of what he went for.

Still can't decide if Montreal is a contender, or pretender.
I have some money to spend, so we shall see how this season starts.

[Kingdom]

I heart swiss cheese.

[Foster]

Saying I got some holes?

[Dam8610]

I called up 15 players for the first sim...hopefully they help.

[cjkalt]

Haha, i had no intentions at that point to bid 30 mil, but i got the #3 and bullpen guy i needed from LAD which made SP the last piece i needed.

Wood is a FA at the end of the year, although I expect the fan rating will improve a bit as the season goes along with promotions and stuff.

Also I'll prolly hand willis away at the end of the year to anyone that wants him to clear off some cap room

[Shadow29]

Post-Harden era does not look bright.

[Kingdom]

Were there even promos on OOTP 6?
