"There are freaking geeks out there who get ... off on this kind of stuff," Melvin said, "Including this guy who calls himself "reds44"."

 

"I mean, seriously, he need a name as creative as the trades he makes up," Melvin added, before walking away in disgust

It's amazing how popularity loosens nsbb guidelines.

 

Yeah, some people on here can be dicks and everyone just looks the other way.

The speculation's the fun part. Especially if you end up with Cesar Izturis.

You should show more respect to the top poster around here. The voters have spoken.

Well if at first you don't succeed with a quality post, try 33,000 more times.

OK guys, listen up.

 

There is absolutely nothing wrong with a rumor being posted on this message board, as long as it's clearly labeled as such. The thread title says it's a rumor. The initial post says it's a rumor. So lay off. And I don't care how many posts you have or don't have. I don't see any reason for the amount of grief that is being thrown around in this thread.

 

So lets stop the pissing match.

The next version of the message board will have the ability for posters to "report" posts that are inappropriate or in violations of the guidelines. Until then, we have to go by what the mods see, or what is PM'd to us. I can't speak for other mods, but I haven't been online in a few hours, so I hadn't seen any of this. And I sure didn't get any PM's on the issue. We deal with things as we see them, but like you, we're only human.

 

And as I've always said, just because you don't see a mod post about it in a thread, doesn't mean a problem isn't being dealt with by PM.

Dunn To Brewers Rumor Quashed

Radio rumors are among the most dubious, because I can't confirm unless I heard the report myself or a trusted person communicated it to me. So when I heard of a few thirdhand reports of an Adam Dunn to Milwaukee radio rumor, I remained skeptical.

 

I still haven't talked to anyone to learn which specific person at SportsRadio 1250 initiated this rumor, but it doesn't seem completely fabricated given that ESPN picked it up. The scenario:

 

The Reds would trade Adam Dunn to the Brewers for Tony Gwynn Jr., Matt Wise, and an unknown infield prospect. Wise is solid, and Wayne Krivsky likes relievers. But the bounty still seems too small for the best available slugger. The other red flag is that Wise and Gwynn continued to play in today's game after the rumor surfaced.

 

Fortunately, Jerry Crasnick spoke to Doug Melvin and confirmed that there's nothing to this trade rumor.

[hardcorecubfan]

Oh darn, this quashes another Adam Dunn thread. I think he ranks up there with "what's going on with Wood Thread"

[RynoRules]

He said it was a rumor, it's labeled a rumor, it's not a problem.

 

Those who are giving reds44 the business need to get a life. What the hell is wrong with posting rumors in the transactions forum? For the love of G-d the title of the thread begins with the word "rumor".

There was nothing at all wrong with what reds44 posted. It's been noted many times by mods and others that reds44 was unjustly attacked for posting properly.
