  1. Uhhh I said who I was keeping months ago in November. I didn't know my exempt players but I knew the points players. I made trades (Pujols, Quentin ... etc.) and calculated my points correctly. CBS then changed some of the players points and you sent out a message saying it had put me under (along with other teams). You then offered me that trade. Now I see that it didn't put me under and YOU were wrong hence why the trade should be voided. Sorry, Levin, but this is on you. You are the one who said that you'd be over the limit... not me. Your exact words: "I made a trade to get just enough points if I'm now short a month after the fact that is not right." Please show me where I told you you would be short? I never did. You did the math on that, not me. Not only that, but let's just say for a second that you're right and I told you that you'd be over. If you knew who you were keeping, did you not have the ability to count for yourself to see if you'd have enough points to keep the guys you wanted to keep? Yes, you did. I don't have a single message from you on here, on CBS, or in my email, so how the hell am I supposed to know who you planned to keep? And if I don't know who you're keeping, how the hell am I supposed to tell you how many points you need? The fact is, you were the only one who could have known. I traded you 7 points because that was how much affect the point change had on your team. I had no idea who you were keeping, so I had no idea how many points you'd need. You not knowing either is not my fault. I said if. I didn't know if I was under. You sent out a message saying that some owners may go under because of it and I said that if someone is over a month after the fact that is crap. Still stand by that. If CBS screws up and wants to change it after owners have made deals and gotten their roster done then no owner should get screwed because of it. We can choose to not recognize the changes that came a month after the season. Also if you look at the league message history you will see a message I sent to the league after trading Pujols (first week of November) saying who I was keeping. You then proposed a trade to me saying here are the 7 points you need. I assumed you counted and that was what I needed. I didn't remember what the pick traded were. I was thinking it was a full round swap not just three spots. If its just three spots I don't really care. It was 3 spots. I put it in the original message.
  2. I'll say this, just for integrity's sake.... if you can show me anywhere that I specifically told you that you'd be 7 points over your limit, then I'll gladly reverse the trade. Even though you had the ability to count for yourself, if I told you something and was wrong, I won't punish you for it. It's amazing that someone might think that having the opportunity to draft Everth Cabrera instead of Orlando Cabrera is worth dealing with the complaining. Pretty sure no one would choose to deal with the complaining for the opportunity to improve the scrub you're drafting by 3 whole spots in the 9th round.

  4. Get real. That trade was made to you in November, and you traded me the 138th pick for the 141st. Not only that, but your points are fine because of who you chose to keep, not because the math was wrong back then. You needed 7 points, and I gave them to you. Just because you don't need them anymore doesn't mean you can have a trade rescinded. I hope that this message is just a joke that I'm missing.

  22. Gary... Will you be changing your team name?
  23. I sent the email right away, I hope he gets back to me tonight, to that I can begin prepping. Who else from the board is involved? You've got mhuber, moochpuppy, BigBadB, myself, big_shooter17, roady, Cubbiebummin, and a couple of guys whose names I don't recall here.
  24. It's on CBS, and you can have dibs if you want it. First come, first served, imo. What questions do you have? Any? PM me your email address and I can get you in tonight. Up front, I want to say that it is a year-round(ish) league. Doesn't mean you're super active in the offseason, just that you're paying attention to trade requests, deadlines, etc.
  25. 16 team, H2H, keeper league full of mostly NSBB posters has an opening for an owner. The team that needs an owner was the league runner up last season, and has a solid roster in place for 2010. The issues: the team's roster has to be legal by midnight Sunday (would require new owner to understand all keeper rules in a short time frame), and the draft is potentially in 2 weekends. The league entry fee of $17 does not apply to this team. Please respond ASAP for a chance to join this league.
