Spilly might have a hazing period for these new guys before they're allowed in the commercials. Will really miss Fuentes and Matty's fine acting skills. I see some of the DP commenters referring to Bay Area readers lamenting this trade. That's probably a good sign. All three dudes are pertty young, so I'm starting to like this trade to some degree. I never thought of that, why don't we just trade the Monforts?<BR/><BR/>The Das Boot youth line should be available by Christmas. I should have photo emulsion to use, so if anyone has any good screen ideas, let me know.TroutDoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10383792662975525014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432728318849577059.post-14538092933578774722008-11-11T10:17:00.000-07:002008-11-11T10:17:00.000-07:00TD, I believe your Matt Holiday essay was to have ...TD, I believe your Matt Holiday essay was to have a minimum of 1000words, that's an automatic 10 point reduction... sorry grading papers this veteran's day Holiday. Pun totally intended.<BR/><BR/>Pretty funny reading all of the comments on denverpost.com. Everyone kind of had the same clever remark, i wish we could trade the Monforts and/or O'Dowd.<BR/><BR/>One question I ponder is how will these new aquisitions work their way into those goofy spring training commercials? They might have to do some brown-nosing to Spilly to get into them ads.NikBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08526894112846996409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432728318849577059.post-22262336396787420192008-11-11T09:48:00.000-07:002008-11-11T09:48:00.000-07:00What about the Das Boot youth line?Irv and Joe's b...What about the Das Boot youth line?<BR/><BR/>Irv and Joe's backing would be nice.<BR/><BR/>I'll be spending my vets day commenting (my huge Big East preview is headlining at www.slamonline.com)and dorking around the house (ie cleaning)Young Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05654086393153974838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432728318849577059.post-86683227776742325312008-11-11T09:34:00.000-07:002008-11-11T09:34:00.000-07:00what are you screening?

Maybe that'll get me motivated for next year's Opening Day t's.<BR/><BR/>Haven't seen anything in the mail yet, but knowing this ownership, that's probably true that they go out this week. I'm not really down with the the boycotting thing for this cause. Why I'm hella pissed that Holliday is gone, I generally don't support salaries of this size. <BR/><BR/>There should be a salary cap. I'm all for players getting their fair share and not funneling more money to owners, but if there were a salary cap, I would think it would force more reasonable salaries, ticket prices, and tv contracts. Maybe that's wishful thinking. But, I will still go to the games. I like baseball and my teams (ownership issues aside) more than individual players.TroutDoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10383792662975525014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432728318849577059.post-2083868603748220822008-11-11T08:39:00.000-07:002008-11-11T08:39:00.000-07:00OBVI, IGINLA. spelling.GUYS, great work on both si...OBVI, IGINLA. spelling.<BR/><BR/>GUYS, great work on both sites.

Might have to go stay at Ryebread's crib and take in those games. I hope one, or both teams are actually in contention. <BR/><BR/>My regards, ST, on that 9ers pick. I was just watching the highlights (after beginning marathon Casino, the movie, viewing) and it looks like they suffered a similar fate as the Chiefs, Packers, Eagles, and Steelers in this whacky week of the nfl.TroutDoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10383792662975525014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432728318849577059.post-56014255312820995792008-11-10T23:24:00.000-07:002008-11-10T23:24:00.000-07:00An articulate analysis...very well said.Got to giv...An articulate analysis...very well said.<BR/><BR/>Got to give this deal time to completely shake down and sink in. One thing, we all know Holliday was not going to be in Denver past next July and if things went well in the first half of '09 (jesus, wouldn't that be nice? especially now?) he still would have been gone by the end of next season. Now it is just speculation about what other deals might have been possible for him instead of what O'Dowd agreed to with Beane. <BR/><BR/>Seriously, best of luck with the A's...odd that he'd land with my preferred AL club.Sonic Toothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10906954821440968850noreply@blogger.com
