"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

 

:lmao:

With quality posts like that, no wonder why you have 8,000 post per day.

 

:lmao:

 

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

 

We were bribed. Of course we would vote for free premium.

I blame Bob Sanders

I blame CT. :wink:

 

But seriously, what's with all the hate here? Can't we all just get along?

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.

I wouldn't mind if Dunn took his VORP to the Brewers for the remainder of the season, at least the Cubs would only have to face him in 3 games instead of 12

Can we just have one all purpose stickied Dunn thread? Otherwise there will be a bunch more of these threads all polluting the transactions forum.

 

The mods should make one Dunn thread, and any and all things Dunn related can be discussed at great length in there.

This whole thread reminds me of Dr. Strangelove:

 

"Gentlemen! No fighting in the war room!!!"

 

That might be the most underrated line in the history of film.

I know what you mean. I look at the Transactions forum and I can't even see any other threads b/c of all the Dunn rumor threads. There has to be...at least...one of them.

Then we'd have to make a master thread for A-Rod, Tejada (back when that was popular), Griffey, Jacque, Eyre...etc.

 

If this thread dies off on it's own naturally, and Dunn discussion picks back up in the future for some reason, there's no problem with a new thread.

[Derwood]

there's no better way to get rid of this thread than by continually bumping it to complain about it

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

Bump

[Soul]

Hehe. Nice.

[hardcorecubfan]

I panicked there for a second scrolled and didn't see the dreaded "Dunn Thread" but luckily it was down at the very last post on the first page. :shock:

[rickrolled]

so, did we get him yet?

[swordsman]

I blame Bob Sanders

 

I blame his wife.

Can we just be Dunn with this thread?
