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

[TheGrinch]

I heard a rumor on ESPN 1000 a few minutes ago that this thread will reach at least 200 pages, and that even a few more Geovany Soto statements could be thrown in by spring training depending on the Orioles' roster situation and if Geovany is spelled correctly.

No rickrolls. Please read the board's guidelines -- linked in my sig. Thank you.

 

It wasn't a rickroll, and you should lighten up.

Listen, I'm not saying the mods can't be criticized. But please be more polite in how you do it when you disagree with something.

 

Normally I'd agree, but that was pretty obviously going to be a joke link. I mean, at least to my knowledge, ESPN 1000 doesn't cover this site.

 

Dang. I thought my post was pretty harmless. Sorry for the brouhaha that resulted and I hope no smilies are harmed. I promise I'll add at least 10 more content-filled posts before one that barely boarders on amusing. (Lurker since 2001 from the Cubs.com exodus who lost his ID at some point)

I told you I was calling in the troups. This could get ugly folks.

 

Take this, Tim!

If we give up two pitchers would you rather part with Marshall or Gallagher, assuming Marquis is the other? I want to Cubs to hold on to Gallagher.

Anybody we know, or were you strictly a lurker? I was a regular at that joint in '01.

I'd rather not give up Gallagher at all, but Roberts does have pretty high value. Actually, I'd prefer if they didn't try and trade with Baltimore ever. :tease:

Pretty much the only people I remember are you, NCCubFan...and that's about it as most seem to have changed their names. I never posted much, but when I did I was DiceMan. Played in a few yahoo fantasy leagues with people. Trying to make my comeback now.

If you remember and this was posted many moons ago is that supposedly Bedard had to be dealt first and then Roberts......... ;)

[Derwood]

i still think BAL owes us for Freddie Bynum and Mike Fontenot.

There's still quite a few more posting here from those days, but yeah, even I have a tough time keeping up with the name changes. I'm sure you are aware that Tim was SanClementeFan.

Wow. Good one.

 

By the way, the way we are padding this thread, people are going to get all excited that something is happening with Roberts, only to find this fine emoticon debate. \:D/

Do I need to be more polite to mods than I do to regular posters?

Actually I didn't know that. I think he was also in the fantasy league with NC. Those were the days. I believe I was banned from Cubs.com for bumping "If Zambrano starts..." but that's only a guess as it seems people were banned for mere punctuation errors. Actually, I want to go back and see if that thread still lives. Good ol' Hogcard.

That totally depends on how much you like it here. :D :wink:

I'd actually prefer that you're polite to everyone. But being polite to mods would be a good start if you're looking to take baby steps.

Don't go back to work. This thread is keeping me from getting back to the weeklong misery of getting my taxes in order.
