Styles 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 No Raz, it should not be taken seriously. Anymore heat of the moment announcements in this thread will not be taken seriously by me and will be treated as such by everybody else. THAT'S IT I'M TRADING MY WHOLE TEAM FOR KEN GRIFFEY JR!!! JUST FILL OUT THE REST OF MY TEAM WITH DEVIL RAYS!!!! cool. As far as the Cartman/CW deal, that's fine. Cartman gets SP Wade Miller and Cena's Writer gets SP Brandon Backe in whatever round it was. Good work, boss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 Well this has turned ugly. Flik, relax, no one's pissed at you. You don't have to dismantle your team just to placate one person. Cena's Writer has already said he'll give Cartman Wade Miller, and would selecte Brande Backe. That solves the issue. If you want to step down as Comissioner, that's your choice, and thanks to Harley for picking it up. Ugly? Nah. Ugly is I'm nearly ready to quit TSM after this. That's ugly. No one's pissed? Wow. Wonderful job with the foolery last night. Bought it hook, line and sinker. I mean, the joking about how you guys weren't happy with me taking too long, me taking off the team list, losing the taken list, and all that was marvelously done. Great job. You guys deserve an Oscar for that performance, you really do. ...seriously, if that was all joking, you really picked an awful fucking time to pull it. Yes, I'm stepping down. Harley was even telling me and I quote from our AIM Chat: HQandJoker: It's not worth the aggravation it's giving you And he's right. Its not worth it. Not what I put in, and what little I've gotten in return. I also thank HarleyQuinn as well since I basically put him on the spot conccerning the league. He'll run the ship from here on out. Ignore the part about Cartman and CW as far as that Wade/Backe deal goes. Flik and I are ironing out the details. He's serious about that trade? Goodness... I was serious when I made that offer as commish, and when accepted I put it through before the actual change of hands. Its also the only thing I'm not allowing HQ to change.

iggymcfly 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 Flik, seriously, you should keep Pettite and Halladay, relax, and ignore everyone's complaints. You did everything you could to try to bring people together, and if someone missed out on future MVP Wade Miller, well too bad. Anyone who really wanted a particular player could always just attend the live draft, or have made their offline picks faster in order to avoid the live draft in the first place. I can understand why you're pissed off now, but as soon as the draft is done, things will run a lot more smoothly, and you'll probably start enjoying the league again as long as you don't dismantle your team to placate people.

HarleyQuinn 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 Final post on this whole bloody subject. As a result of the trade with Flik, Cartman will be receiving SP Andy Pettitte and SP Roy Halladay. Because of this trade, Cena's Writer will be keeping(not literally as in keeper) SP Wade Miller on his roster for opening day unless he makes a trade. Now Cartman, if you're still pissed over losing out on Miller...trade for him. If you want to further discuss this topic, do so through PM or an AIM Chat or whatever. However this thread is officially for draft picks as of now so keep it that way okay folks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 Now, how is it fair that Cartman gets Halladay AND Pettitte? Seriously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cartman 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 I don't know Al, I told him to forget that because it's obviously unfair. I'd rather have just done what CW suggested. But...Halladay is coming back from an injury plagues season and is on the worst team in the AL in my opinion. Pettite is nothing much to be proud of lately either until he proves he can stay healthy and show that he can still pitch outside of being a Yankee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 This is why I don't like keeper leagues. The idea of keepers is fine, but running the draft applet via Yahoo is a million times easier. EDIT: Halladay is easily a stud pitcher, in my view. Halladay for Miller, quite frankly, is overcompensation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HarleyQuinn 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 Yes Cartman, Sweeney is available and the whole matter is settled, period. I would've agreed to the 1/1 deal but it's Flik's decision to renege and he won't. Therefore that deal is done. Pettitte is coming off a season ending injury and Halladay came off a season where he only made 21 starts. Both players could be great rewards or just as high risks.

Both players could be great rewards or just as high risks. If Halladay was available, I would've taken him with my first pick. There's NO reason to think he won't pitch 200+ innings and notch 175 Ks. Miller is a risk. I just don't see how this deal is anything close to fair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 Now, how is it fair that Cartman gets Halladay AND Pettitte? Seriously. Oh, I'm sorry. Maybe you didn't read the part "this way, you get to fuck me over instead." It wasn't meant to be fair. I never intended that to be that way at all. If I had wanted it to be fair, I'd still be remaining in this league once this season ends. But I'm done with all leagues when this is finished. Or do people keep forgetting that little detail?

Cartman 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 See but I don't want that Flik. All I wanted was what i asked for before I had to leave the live draft...and CW came up with a suggestion to remedy that. I was being sarcastic on acception that rediculous deal and I don't expect you to do that. I want you to enjoy this league just like everyone else and just throwing two pitchers at me because you're pissed off doesn't solve anything really. I don't want it like that, and neither do you or anyone else in this league i'm sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HarleyQuinn 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2005 Alright, here's the deal right now. At the moment, I'm asking Flik to stay for the following seasons. In an effort to make everybody satisfied, I'm also requesting that the trade be un-done and that the current setup sees SP Wade Miller go to Cartman and Cena's Writer will take SP Brandon Backe. This way; Al won't be talking about the trade being unfair, Cartman and CW have both said they are cool with the 1 - 1 swap, and Flik gets to have a fucking nice starting rotation. Now if anybody starts anymore shit regarding this subject, I'm going to be a very annoyed man. If you want to contact me during this then hit me up on AIM at HQandJoker. Cartman selected 1B Mike Sweeney Raz is now on the clock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
