And it's clear we do agree to disagree, but IMHO it never hurts to verbalize the rationale for the disagreement.
Not once did I call you any names. If you took it that way then it's all on you. I did point out that everyone has opinions, granted in a rather blunt manner, however the comment wasn't directed towards you as an insult.
I can respect your opinion, and I expect the same in return. My opinion was based on a comment made to me in another league a very long time back, and at that time I felt it a fair statement.
As for this deal everyone is all hoped up about, I did think it was odd that a GM would deal for an injured player. I figured the GMs invovled talked it out via site mail to work everything out, because that's how I've gone about making deals. So if that's the case then more power to them.
By the way, it's about time you open your yap,

perhaps we can be on the same page on things in the future.

Now, let's play some hockey!!
