MacPhail: Deal is dead (p. 297), stop posting, go outside

[Derwood]

someone bring Deucebaseman back. i'm bored

[17 Seconds]

The fact that there hasn't been even a peep about Roberts over the past week or so is kind of strange.

[Burtonbell]

201 just doesn't have the right ring to it...

I've made someone's signature for saying that batting average and speed aren't important. I'm so happy!

Yeah. I was actually going to type that exact statement but changed it in fear that people would self-destruct at the realization that Roberts probably isn't coming.

This thread is such a joke. Most of the time people are posting about something else, other than a potential Roberts trade to the Cubs. Why don't the mods do a better job of separating some of these unrelated threads, from the Roberts thread. Why don't members just single out another thread, and do all they can to make that thread, exceed 200+ pages? Why does it have to be this stupid thread.

[pitchcs]

Who cares?

 

I do. If you didn't watch or listen you're in the minority. It's news.

 

I doubt that, considering most are at work.

This thread is so much fun though. I would be pissed if the mods started messing with it. Any "real" updates are posted in the title with a pg. reference anyway. If it says "OH mini update p.183", and there are all of a sudden 201 pages, everyone knows DueceBasemen or wrigley23 made a post or two.

Please mods, do not interfere with the future of this thread.

Yeah, stupid mods. Where are they anyway? Probably post padding some transaction thread or sumthin.

People are on here during the middle of the workday too. The hearing was on TV, radio, and streamed over the internet. It was available to anyone who wanted to consume it in totality or segments.

[RammyFanny]

Gave the title a nice little makeover.

I don't think any of us mods have the time it takes to sift through a thread of this size and take care of all the unreleated posts. :shock:

[UMFan83]

Here is every title this thread has had so far:

6. B.Roberts - Bruce Miles Update on p. 95

7. Levine: Cubs have 0% chance for Roberts pg. 107

8. MacPhail: "We haven't closed any doors" on Roberts deal p114

I think the next logical step is to get this list up to 200.

I have an idea. Whenever Deuce puts up a Greene non-park adjusted stat, we just type "PETCO" in response and quote it over and over again, GEOVANY SOTO style. That should get us to 300 fairly quick. Same applies if he posts a OBP or BA stat and we just reply "OPS"

[TheGrinch]

PETCO

Like so.
