2044-13: Talons Learn Valuable Forum Lesson: NoOne Cares About Your Tradeable Players Unless You Put Them in Trade Block

[jiminyhopkins]

Phoenix, AZ--

The BBA has spoken.

After posting a Team News about tradeable players (to get the two points, duh), the Talons were expecting a sizeable abount of interest. Especially since some of those guys are actually kinda good. Maybe.

But after the News posting, the Talons have received exactly zero offers.

Why is this? After all, these guys are better than some of the players that have been traded lately. The Talons couldn't figure it out. Why, besides one note expressing the possibility of future interest in a third baseman, had the Talons heard crickets from the wider BBA regarding the coming Talons Fire Sale? Especially since the franchise has a well known tendency to make lopsided deals benefitting the other team? (Ahem Don Smith cough cough)

And then the Talons figured it out. Eureka! The available players have to be in the 'Trade Block' Forum, not in some stupid team news post! It was so obvious, how could they not have figured it out before!

And so, forthwith, the Talons will copypaste that TN article into the appropriate forum. Forgive us, BBA gods, for we have sinned!

No one will care about them in the trade block either.

Does this one count?

i like taking a look at the smaller deals that might otherwise be ignored.

That's what your wife said......
