ESPN Board Rumor Is this true??

[Carlos Zambrano]

This says ESPN 1000 is reporting a Cubs Reds deal. I don't think it's true but you never know.

God I hope not.

[rickrolled]

it's the ESPN board, not true

[B]

NO

[JimSorgi]

Those people have no idea what they are talking about. One guy said Hill is 24.

[Carlos Zambrano]

Looks fake to me as well. But I don't know for sure.

ESPN message board? ewww...

[TruffleShuffle]

oh no, people are posting "breaking news" from ESPN message boards now?

 

And by the way, given that the guy spelled three of the four names wrong, I'm gonna assume he's just a troll who doesn't follow the Cubs too closely.

[David]

God I hope not.

 

I'd be pretty happy with that deal. Hurts a little to lose Murton and Gallagher, but I can deal with the rest. Griffey is the impact bat we need and Arroyo is a decent SP.

 

I don't, however, think it's anywhere close to being true.

 

EDIT - Whoops, I didn't see he had us giving up Hill too.

 

Nevermind.

[TruffleShuffle]

[nilodnayr]

whose matt merton?

[Carlos Zambrano]

Yeah especially when the guy freaking spells Matt Murton, Matt Merten. What an idiot.

[BCVM22]

whose matt merton?

 

He plays on the same team as Gallagar, Erik Patterson and Rameriz.

[Flames24Rulz]

ESPN sure gives me a headache. And their boards don't make it any better.

[JimSorgi]

Actually he spelled it Merton. Who's the idiot now?

[Yeti]

considering that the guy cant even spell murton(merton,) i'm guessing "no"
