i just wanted to go ahead and explain myself so i dont have to do it 20 times in each trade post. i have held my team for 3 years now and i believe i am the most improved owner i am very active im on every day and i have worked ALOT on trying to get my rosters to the point where i believe i will be on the path of winning in this type of league... im all about a building my team and the 2 trades i have worked this year could very much so be the finish to my rebuilding... b/c with the 2 trades after they get approved (i can only hope anyways) my team will show that i know what im doing and have very successfully built an amazing team... the only reason i could understand people vetoing my current 2 trades is b/c the owners do not want me having a dynasty in this type of league... i have looked and looked over these last 2 trades and put my roster together if i can manage to get you guys to please approve them i would be in great position to not only win now (you will just have to see i would rather not tell now) but also win later.... my team was horrible and dead last when i got it and each year i have done things to make it better and i believe this could be my year if things go my way so i just hope everyone will give me the chance to show them that i do know what i am doing and have put alot of thought in it! thanks to all who have read and are willing to let me show what i can do with my roster |

i completely agree and we have had to take over teams that other owners didnt want so im just really hoping these 2 trades get approved... well you atleast had a pick of teams haha i was added as a 1 team that needed ownership lol but its all good i have stuck it out and my team is (if these 2 trades go thru) where i want it to be and i will be super happy... if people ? what im trying to do i will show but i rather keep it my little secret and let them find out after everything happens but all i can hope is that everyone sees how active i have been and realize no matter how crazy it may look im doing VERY GOOD things to my team... |

I know this is not an english class but a lot of what you type is hard to read because its not properly written. Not trying to be rude or anything, but when your trying to make a serious point it helps for it to be properly written and easy to read. Just trying to be straight with you since that is what you said you wanted. And you can have all these post you want but the bottom line is we as a staff are here to do what is best and if we feel a trade is not even or whatever, its OUR job to veto. You don't have to like it. But you can not post something like this every time it does not work out the way you want. You want us to see it YOUR WAY but you refuse to see it OUR WAY. This is the second post you made like this, was a 2nd one really necessary? And as for your last trade, you CAN NOT trade/acquire guys whose contracted expired AFTER the conclusion of the world series, that is just common sense, that is when the SEASON is over for us and thus the contracts are FINAL. The only choice for expired contracts after the season concludes, which again, is after the conclusion of our World Series, is to re-sign them or let go into free agency. Another point, if your not a TAB Member, which means you have access to that part of the board, you are not allowed to vote on trades or anything related to league business. Just to be clear on that. Those choices are made by Brewers GM. And lastly, I appreciate the hard work you have put in, but that goes for EVERYONE that is here. What you and others have no idea about is the past of this league and the struggles this league went through to get where are today. Only the original GMs truly understand that path. |

No but you clearly are. WE HAVE NEVER EVER ALLOWED TRADES OF EXPIRING CONTRACTS sorry you don't get that and find it funny that was all you responded too in that whole post by me. No matter how good of a job you think you have done, we are not going to change the way we have done things just because you think we should. Its worked for 2 yrs and will continue to work. The Commish who would know the rules a lot more than you would said its not allowed, so re-work the deal or move on, its not a valid deal. |

Just out of curiosity how old are you? The typing style would suggest under 18 since you won't correct it no matter how many times I have asked. I am simply trying to help you here. You want to be taken serious, it takes more than a serious of moves, posting in a way that is proper does as well. Well you two have to re-work it or have no deal, so that is up to you two, but the deal as it is is dead. |

Well i am older than 18. I just never really thought about using correct grammar in something like this. If i need to be more correct I can try, I was just trying to have fun and being out of school i rather not be proper! |
