Subject: Merger Gurupie League: Cont'd Posted by: axp113 - [250402413] Thu, Feb 22, 18:35 I got tired of the other post, plus I just wanted to know how everyone was doing. Does anyone know when this league will start. It looks like the commish is a very busy guy these days. Can't wait for this league to start though.

| 41 | Sachin - Orioles- M2 ID: 28628514 Fri, Feb 23, 15:27 | I must say Whitey that post 23 cracked me up too. Anyway, I was just messing around before with that crime stuff. I get the point about shady deals and all, but for the most part we are powerless to do much about it short of kicking out the offender. I think everything will fix itself after a couple seasons in the merger. However, if Brock does find a ridiculous trade, I think we should mention it to everyone and tell the offender that we know about it and we think it's unfair. That might at least cut down on it a little. | |||||

| 43 | Sanfran ID: 571202314 Fri, Feb 23, 15:29 | Yes i nominate Brock as the offical "police" of monitering trades. | |||||
| 44 | Wammie ID: 20039259 Fri, Feb 23, 15:31 | What did you guys do in F3 before when there were trades that you didn't like? I mean this game kind of assumes that the mangers know what they are doing, and won't make stupid trades. but they happen. there is a big difference between stupid trades and cheating trades. | |||||
| 45 | Big Poo Generator ID: 14857812 Fri, Feb 23, 15:39 | Whitey, you're probably right that it would be tough to monitor every trade given that we've got teams from several different leagues. Personally I certainly don't want to try to monitor all the trades. But apparently some people are noticing some bad trades, and when they do we can try to do something about it. That's all I'm saying. Hopefully by talking about this we'll at least create pressure on people not to do these deals if they were considering giving in to temptation. Most of us want to get along with our fellow owners. | |||||
| 46 | Wammie ID: 20039259 Fri, Feb 23, 15:59 | it is too bad that the commish couldn't have started the 30 team leagues before the pay league started. by a couple of seasons or so. just so that it would be all settled when we start paying. oh well i guess. | |||||

| 57 | Sanfran ID: 4010915 Wed, Feb 28, 12:22 | well you never asked me you just assumed.... Sanfran is for the 49er's which is my faviorte football team, and its been my nick ever since i origonaly had it when small world baseball stated and wayyyyyyyyyy back when guru sent out emails in smallworld baseball, remember that when you had mail, and told everyone to come to his webstie which was at members.tripod. When he finally got the message board thing i had e-mailed him under Sanfran before so i kept it. | |||||
| 58 | worm sr. ID: 531142812 Wed, Feb 28, 12:27 | i just assumed that it meant you were from san fran. so you are a 9er fan huh? must suck to be one of them. | |||||
| 59 | Sanfran ID: 4010915 Wed, Feb 28, 12:31 | It does now, but ive been a fan since they beat the bengals in the superbowl way back in the 80's so we have had our good times..... | |||||

| 61 | Whitey ID: 2543539 Wed, Feb 28, 13:29 |
worm - You wouldn't even know what a bandwagon was if it ran you over...if he has been a fan since the Niners/Bengals Super Bowl how in the hell does that make him a bandwagon jumper?? You get dumber every day.... | |||||
| 62 | Brock ID: 42542238 Wed, Feb 28, 13:39 | I'll explain that one to you Whitey. The Niners were the best team in the 80's and early 90's. If a person starts liking a team just because they are winning that makes them a bandwagon jumper. I'm not saying SanFran is but every single Niner fan that I know is one. It's just like all and I do mean all Chicago Bulls fans. I don't have to explain that one. | |||||
| 63 | Whitey ID: 2543539 Wed, Feb 28, 13:45 | Let me explain this to you Brock, if he is still a Niners fan now and has been through the last few $hitty years, does that still make him a bandwagon jumper?? I didn't think so...never side with worm, it can only get you into trouble | |||||
| 64 | Brock ID: 42542238 Wed, Feb 28, 13:48 | The niners have never been bad. They made it to the second round of the playoffs in 98-99. You must have forgotten that. They have some good young players and a Pro Bowl QB and WR. Garner is good too. All of that must have just slipped your mind though. | |||||
| 65 | Whitey ID: 2543539 Wed, Feb 28, 13:53 | Brock - The Niners dynasty has been over for years..get clued in. Even SanFran will admit that. If SanFran is still a Niners fan after the mediocre teams of the past few years then he surely is not a bandwagon fan... | |||||
| 66 | Sachin - Orioles- M2 ID: 28628514 Wed, Feb 28, 13:56 | Let me chime in here on this bandwagon thing. I don't really think SanFran is bandwagoning. Let me explain. My favorite team is the Bears. Why? Because the first year I ever watched football happened to be 1985. The Bears were awesome and I loved Walter Payton, the Fridge, McMahon etc. I have been a Bears fan ever since. I suspect something similiar happened to SanFran. If you are a little kid watching for the first time, and like the best team I don't think it qualifies. Especially if you stick with them from then on. I should know, the Bears have sucked for the past 10 years. | |||||
| 67 | Whitey ID: 2543539 Wed, Feb 28, 13:59 |
Great point Sachin...a lot of people start following a team after watching them play in a World Series or Super Bowl when they are really young. I have been a Raiders fan since they won the Super Bowl in '85 over the Skins and I thought Marcus Allen was the man. You're only a bandwagon fan if you stop following the team if and when they start to encounter some failure | |||||
| 68 | Sanfran ID: 12118237 Wed, Feb 28, 14:12 | Exactly, it was the first time i rember watching football, and when the niners won the game on that last second drive, it made me a fan and i have been ever since. In fact that is why i played 4 years of high school football, it inspired me that much. I got ragged on big time when the giants killed Montana and i got bashed when young got his many concusions, but if this makes me a bandwagon jumper then so be it. | |||||
| 69 | Brock ID: 42542238 Wed, Feb 28, 14:12 | Whitey and Sachin - you're both right about liking a team when you're young. I won't argue with that. I was never saying that SanFran was a bandwagon jumper. All I was saying is that I know a lot of 49er's fans that were. The 49'ers dynasty ended when Steve Young retired. That was 1999, 2 seasons ago. You remember Steve Young, right? He was QB for them. He has a few Super Bowl and regular season QB records. He was from BYU. He was drafted by Tampa Bay? Do you remember him now? You must have forgotten about him and Jerry Rice if you think the 49'ers dynasty ended a quite a few years back. | |||||
| 70 | Sachin - Orioles- M2 ID: 28628514 Wed, Feb 28, 14:23 | I know what you mean Brock. I know a ton of Bulls and Niners and Yankee fans that are total bandwagon jumpers. I hate that crap. | |||||
| 71 | Sanfran ID: 4010915 Wed, Feb 28, 14:25 | Jerry Rice is my favorite player, i tried to emulat him on the field every time. Once he leaves the niners or retires i will defiently be sad that day.... | |||||
| 72 | Sachin - Orioles- M2 ID: 28628514 Wed, Feb 28, 14:27 | Get ready SanFran, one of those is going to happen this season. | |||||
| 73 | Sanfran ID: 4010915 Wed, Feb 28, 14:27 | now if i said i was a Ravens fan that would be a different story.... | |||||
| 74 | Sanfran ID: 4010915 Wed, Feb 28, 14:29 | Yup, i allready know that... Check this out, its my spring break and im taking my laptop with me and i just got me nextell adapter so i can dial into my laptop and be on the internet whereever i am without haveing to be pluged in... Cant wait to chat with you guys when im on the bus, Man im addicated to Grandslam..... | |||||
| 75 | Sachin - Orioles- M2 ID: 28628514 Wed, Feb 28, 14:35 | Dude, you're on Spring Break and you're talking to us? You have some serious problems. | |||||
| 76 | Wammie ID: 20039259 Wed, Feb 28, 14:41 | I am a Chicago Bear, Bull, and Cub fan. Have been all my life. I personally know Brock, so his calling all Bull fans bandwagon was a personal attack. I have always liked all the Chicago teams. Just because most Bulls fans were bandwagon fans, or more specifically Michael Jordan fans, that doesn't mean that all of us are bandwagon fans, but I will admit, there not many of us Bulls fans left. Where did everyone go, Los Angles? | |||||
| 77 | Sanfran ID: 4010915 Wed, Feb 28, 14:41 | no my spring break is next week, im leaving tommorow to go snowbaording for the weekend in Saracuse, then ill come back next week to work for like 3 days, then ill head to Vermont to go Snowboarding again for the weekend. I love it, im going colder for spring break! | |||||
| 78 | Brock ID: 42542238 Wed, Feb 28, 14:45 | Wammie - You were exactly one of the ones I was talking about when I referred to bandwagon jumpers and Bulls fans. You haven't mentioned a single word about the Bulls in the past 2 years. You didn't like the Bulls until they won their titles. You are a perfect example. | |||||
| 79 | Wammie ID: 437541618 Wed, Feb 28, 16:17 |
What do you want me to say about the Bulls the last 2 seasons? that they are the best team in the NBA? They are not. But as an Iowa State Alum, I really like the Bulls now. I like Tim Floyd, even though he is a far better college coach, and I like Marcus Fizer. and don't forget the Mayor is in chicago as well. I just hope that the Bulls don't become the clippers, a place where top rookies play for a while, and leave when they can. No one wanted to come to chicago this past off season. maybe it is too close to the jordan years, and people would still feel like they would have to fill that teams' shoes. who knows. go bulls, bears, and cubs. | |||||
| 80 | Brock ID: 371582223 Wed, Feb 28, 23:34 | Blah, blah, blah. Stop trying to cover your ass Wammie. That's the first time you've mentioned something about the Bulls since Jordan left. You're not a fan. Stop trying to lie to these people. I know you're a Scubs and Bears fan but you're far from a Bulls fan. Don't be ashamed. There are millions of people just like you. | |||||

as of this friday I will be out of the country, going to the Bahamas for spring break. i have some one baby sitting my GSB teams so they dont die while i am gone, hopefully they survive, gotta go pack, and i highly doubt ill see you guys.,. | |||||

| 84 | Wammie ID: 20039259 Thu, Mar 01, 08:02 | PP, well you are cool with me on two fronts. maybe you will change your mind on the Cubs thing. I noticed the Cubs was the only team you have enough respect for to captialize! ;) | |||||

| 88 | TBRaiders ID: 26738619 Thu, Mar 01, 15:03 |
Huge trade in P2 today. Both teams are coming into the merger so I wanted to come in here and explain it first. Yes, I just traded 26 players for two pitchers. I have a deep farm system and lack quality SP's. PP needed the depth. Some people will say I made a horrible trade but I feel I have the depth to cover. Others will say he made a horrible trade giving up 2 solid pitchers. That's what makes it wonderful, having different opinions. TB | |||||
| 89 | Matt G ID: 35641319 Thu, Mar 01, 21:30 |
Timing I think I cleared it up, the other owner never accepted my retraction offer, so I threww everyone from the trade except Negrette off my team and onto the Waiver Wire. I lost like $50 million and if i would have released Negrette I would be crap broke so that is why. | |||||
