ok what bout the 2nd part! where does his cap hit come in to play? i made a mistake of mis counting money! and he made a mistake of not waiting for things to clear which he had time for!

He assumed your bid was legal therefore he placed another bid not knowing you had gone over your limit, imo your bid was worse and lead to his potential hit.

I will remember that in the future when you want someone to help you out with anything and I guarantee that time will come.

Like I said, I have stated what I think are some things that can be done but ultimately its up to Steve (BrewersGM).

WOW. I really didn't care for the cap hit, but now I am going to fight it like no other just to piss of AstrosGM.

Is he serious?

And if i get a cap hit makers should as well! he should have waited and made sure me gettin pat was final b/4 he spent 20 million or whatever on carlos especially when he didnt even need him! i NEEDED pat and i thought my money was good but i didnt carry the 1 and i had 14 million instead of 15! so ya my bad i cant change it but people need to be aware and if i get hit with a cap hit makers should as well for not waiting


You wanted me to wait. Are you a moron? Had I would have waited, Carlos Delgado would have been gone. Someone would have won him. Try to think that process through in your head. You fucked up, now I get the crap for it too, taking an even bigger cap hit? No.

well why not give him to me! i was the next low bid and i have the money to take the contract! i was 400k from gettin him with my last offer which i counted wrong! my bid was 4 years 12 million NTC! then he topped it with the 4 year 13.5 so why not drop it down one more and make it mine!


Please, tell me you are kidding. Please tell me you are not as dumb as you show you are right here. Why the heck would you be awarded a player that you screwed up on?

And also brother, I was going for Carlos Delgado to be my DH. It was between him and Pat to be my DH, so I actually did need him.


I officially request AstrosGM be removed from mod status. He is a disgrace.

im an intrested party being that i won delgado on a technicality but i just want to say obviously i would want to keep him but....i do think whatever you guys rule im for and will give delgado to makers willingly considering he had the high bid. i also think (no offense) astros should not be rewarded burrel when he screwd the situation up in the first place......................that should be obvious

Yea you cant blame the A's for bidding on someone else in this situation. Its punishing him for Astros mistake.

Also, in my opinion, i think the best thing to do is reward A's with Burrell and re-open the Delgado bid for 24 hours with mariners being the high bid.

Here is what should happen, In my opinion.

We follow the rules as closely as possible here.

I am awarded Pat Burrell, and AstrosGM is awarded the Cap hit.

Then since I would be put over for Carlos Delgado, we stick to the guidelines and he goes to the next player....So that means:


- Pat Burrell goes to the A's - Astros take a cap hit
- Carlos Delgado goes to the Mariners - No cap hit

Honestly i do hate that it happened! its gonna suck for makers! But Rules are Rules and if we can bend them for him then everybody is gonna work it... i really do hate that it happened but a way it could have been dealt with was when he realized i wanted him he could have sent me a trade that would have allowed me to recieve burrell and him recieve something then he would have gotten a player from me and delgado then you would have had 2 happy people! i know i have sounded pretty shitty about this im just pissed i kept trying to work on the player and i mad a HUMAN error which everyone does (including you) and im having to deal with it...

Your are ridiculous man, you fucked up and you fucked another GM, period. As a STAFF MEMBER your suppose to be held a higher standard instead your refuse to bend and make things right you rather everyone pay for your frick up.

And Rules can be bent if it for the best interest of the league and right now I think it is in the best interest of the league to consider just that.

Wow are you serious? you think i should be removed for sticking to the rules? WOW! and makers was bidding on both delgado and burrel at the same time! if he would have just stop driving the cost up and worry what was best for his team and stick with one player (Delgado or Burrell) then we wouldnt have this problem he was bidding on them both at the same time so he didnt have to keep bidding... makers im sorry but you did EXACTLY what i did... you knew you needed to work on your roster as well as i.. and we did what anybody would do try and improve your roster... i had multiple bids as well as everyone else and mine just happened to but me at 400k. i have accepted my cap hit b/c by rules i have to and i just feel it would be wrong for you (makers) to not accept yours which you have said you would do that your pretty much just pissed at me which is reasonable! But you were bidding on Delgado and Burrell at the same time putting out contracts that if not matched you would have over bidded anyways!

Do you have a reading problem? Where did I say anything about you being removed, I did not, makers sure did though.

And I am 99% sure makers last bid on Delgado was AFTER your illegal bid on Burrell.

but he shouldnt be voting on 2 players and trying to give them both high contracts... yes I AM WILLING TO TAKE THE BULK OF THIS... but he was bidding high on two guys and it caught him just like it caught me bidding on so many players
