you missed the part where busk pressured with "good guy" remark and I threatened to **** on the lawn of anyone who vetoed the trade.

dmurphy104 Cabbage **** 7/28/2010 11:59 PM aj, I didnt look at it as him exerting pressure on you. The precedent was set last year--that if you make a mistake there's absolutely no obligation for other owners to make it right.
dmurphy104 Cabbage **** 7/28/2010 11:59 PM An owner that was later replaced missed rule 5. And late last year an owner forgot to assign an international. No need to apologize, I think most everyone had already forgot about it.
ajwalton Diablos 7/28/2010 11:49 PM I figure I'll post this publicly...I originally agreed to do a trade-back w/ robusk following his mistake.
ajwalton Diablos 7/28/2010 11:49 PM I've had some time to think about it, and I've changed my mind. Without even waiting for a response from me he went public in what I can only imagine was an effort to exert pressure on me. I'm sure people will be split on this issue.
ajwalton Diablos 7/28/2010 11:49 PM ..my initial reaction was to make things right, as I have no doubt that it really was a mistake. On the other hand, I don't owe him anything and I really didn't appreciate the way he handled it in the world chat. Lastly, even if accepted by mistake,
ajwalton Diablos 7/28/2010 11:49 PM the trade isn't horribly lop-sided...I'm certainly not getting A-Rod. So, at the risk of not being a "good guy", I feel compelled to not reverse the trade. Anyone who has played this game for any length of time has made personnel mistakes.
ajwalton Diablos 7/28/2010 11:49 PM In the very first season of Billy Beane, I thought I had one more day until the rule 5 and left a bunch of good players unprotected...I would have never in a million years asked or expected someone to fix my mistake. Sorry for taking up so much space.

It definitely was effective.  That guy was basically looking for a reason and you gave it to him.  He is an idiot anyway.

Hopefully it doesn't go Craig Andrews for me and cost me a bunch of WS.
Unfortunately, I don't see that guy being all that important.
Yeah, he sucked.  I was itching to trade him, I was just hoping to trade rape someone instead of get a fair return.

jwelsh1023 Child Services 7/27/2010 10:36 AM Except for the whole "good guy" thing.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/27/2010 10:32 AM I think that is not that far off from what I said.
jwelsh1023 Child Services 7/27/2010 10:19 AM Stop playing into ajwalton. ajwalton has no reason to correct it. You effed up, live with it. It is the same as the rule V issue. ajwalton, you pulled one over on robusk, the biggest HBD douche out there, good job.
mitchrapp Whitecaps 7/27/2010 9:22 AM Not one rule v I'd want. And that's a good thing.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/27/2010 9:12 AM I am not asking for it to be vetoed. I will either work it out with ajwalton or I won't. It is my fault and if I get it reversed, it will because aj was a good guy, not because I got people to correct my mistake for me.
jwelsh1023 Child Services 7/27/2010 9:10 AM If that deal gets vetoed, I will be driving to the houses of all vetoers to **** on their lawns
mtorabdaddy Schmohawks 7/27/2010 8:20 AM Next time you get wasted - give us all advance notice so we can swing a few deals. :)
robusk Hamsterdam 7/27/2010 7:46 AM Probably karma for being such a blowhard all the time.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/27/2010 7:45 AM Heh. I wasn't even that off... I have done it before without mistake. I almost feel compelled to just deal with the repercussions, but I have no use for that guy at all.
mtngoats Timber 7/27/2010 2:52 AM looks like i did not sign some minor league coaches...what is going to happpen now
mitchrapp Whitecaps 7/27/2010 12:01 AM Guerrero is getting around this season. That's why I have a no drinking policy. No **** up mistakes.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/26/2010 11:28 PM **** me. I meant to reject that... but I am a little wasted right now. Not the worst offer ever but it does sort of give me something I don't need. Ah well.

mitchrapp Whitecaps 7/29/2010 11:52 AM Bye. Could someone tell Tis I said bye.
tisi29 Bombers 7/29/2010 11:50 AM Wow, that's awesome. Bye, Mitch.
mitchrapp Whitecaps 7/29/2010 11:49 AM Btw Tis, you can block people in here. If you so desire.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/29/2010 11:43 AM Nah. Douches are still above the jkcats and breums of the world.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/29/2010 11:43 AM I am too lazy, but let's go ahead and assume I posted bret's "I don't know what your problem with me lately..." message here.
jwelsh1023 Child Services 7/29/2010 11:42 AM Nobody said you were fretting over it, just that you are a douche. The lowest form of existence.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/29/2010 11:41 AM I think despite your best attempts, we are going to continue to have fun with the issues until we decide it is dead.
dmurphy104 Cabbage **** 7/29/2010 11:39 AM you should be working on your season preview, and not chatting it up here.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/29/2010 11:38 AM Nah. I was already a pretentious douche before the WS. Somewhere around #3 is when the elitism came in. And despite your best attempts,
robusk Hamsterdam 7/29/2010 11:38 AM there really was no attempt to pressure. It wasn't a bad deal and I was pretty sure I could flip the pitcher. I would have preferred a redo but I wasn't going to fret over it. Thanks for sharing your assumptions though.
tisi29 Bombers 7/29/2010 11:23 AM If only you could block a user here like you can in the forums.
jwelsh1023 Child Services 7/29/2010 10:55 AM robusk, your "
jwelsh1023 Child Services 7/29/2010 10:55 AM good guy" comment was pressure, don't deny it. You are a total pretentious douche when it comes to this game and you exuded your doucheyness in the chat. Guy wins a WS in Season 1 and he is a flippin God? I'd rather moy win 5 WS than you win.
dmurphy104 Cabbage **** 7/29/2010 10:12 AM ok, im undismissing the case. AJ and robusk are ordered to write season previews and predictions for the blog. Due to me by the end of business tomorrow.
dmurphy104 Cabbage **** 7/29/2010 10:10 AM ok. there was a trade, both of you are now happy with it. Case dismissed.
tisi29 Bombers 7/29/2010 10:08 AM A Nalrapist has spoken. So let it be.
tylermathias Nalrapists 7/29/2010 9:38 AM There seems to be a factual dispute as to the timeline. Briefs are due by close of business tomorrow.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/29/2010 9:33 AM Also, for what it's worth aj, you would have won a lot more points in my book if you just said you said you just wanted to capitalize on my mistake rather than blame it on "
robusk Hamsterdam 7/29/2010 9:33 AM how I handled it in the world chat." First of all, my intention quite obviously was not to "pressure you." Second of all, I only posted in the world chat for people not to veto it AFTER you had already said you would trade back.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/29/2010 9:33 AM I ended up happy with the final result, but just own up to the fact that you are a greedy owner like the rest of us. I had enough trade discussions with you in NCAA to know that you are.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/29/2010 9:29 AM Yep. More power and a switch hitter... plus farther away from me having to take him to arbitration.
mitchrapp Whitecaps 7/29/2010 9:26 AM You sure about that?
robusk Hamsterdam 7/29/2010 9:24 AM Works for me. I like the guy I am ending up with better than the guy I mistakingly traded.
mitchrapp Whitecaps 7/29/2010 9:17 AM And Guerrero goes full circle in just a short few days. From Detroit to El Paso to Baltimore back to Detroit.
robusk Hamsterdam 7/29/2010 7:29 AM Yeah, it definitely wasn't meant to add any extra pressure. I only brought it up after expressing my initial frustration so people wouldn't feel compelled to veto and the decision would be left up to you.

I think based on yesterday's conversation with him, he was hoping he could milk me into making a bigger trade with him, but he didn't have anyone I wanted and I wasn't going to let the loss of a ****** bench player strongarm me into trading for more ****.

So would you rather trade Happ and Singleton and get $12,000,000 or Happ, Worley, Rizzoti, and JC Ramirez and get $8,000,000?
