Yeah, I feel so put in my place.   How long do you think it will be before I fully recover from the vicious beating you issued?

Good lord, this is STILL going on?? I thought it would die.

I'll bet he looked anyway.

And there I was thinking the 10,000 meters was long..... and boring

Opie, by far, has the best posts in this thread.

1. Ranger in the trade offer I submitted to you for reynoso. You also left out a very significant part of that deal. A young 22year old pitcher named Jim Garvin whom is arguably better than Rock Painter the main player you received in the deal. He was included in every offer I sent your way.

2. You said you made significant changes to your two world series winning teams that you inherited.

a) no trade clause league- there has been 0 trades in 6 seasons since the inception of the league. Which changes did you make then?
b) Parks, you made two trades, and signed an A comp. The team also played .580 ball the year before you took over the team and you inherited 
numerous all-stars pitchers and silver sluggers.

He brought both teams a higher ethical standard, thus inspiring his clubs and everyone else lucky enough to partake in the worlds.

I, for one, am shocked that ranger made no trades in 6 seasons in a league that doesn't allow trading...

You know he did.

This thread is absurd but hilarious

I keep looking and waiting for someone to step up and say how rangerup is really a great guy and this is all bs...

Haven't you been paying attention?   rangerup has said that exact thing several times.

I like ranger, even if I've gone on record with him (and in the world) saying that I don't agree with this particular strategy of trading away his players if he's not coming back. But he knows how to assess players and I've always gotten along with him, and if there were less drama in Greenwell as a whole, I'd love to have him stick around.

This argument, and this thread, do not even begin to touch on the biggest issues we had over the past two seasons in this world.

LOL @ Mike Greenwell again.

Trading players away before you dump your team is a strategy?
