[Rubaboo]

Roughly the first hour or so of this is Deadline stuffing and off then Ted, Brett and I pivot into sim results and chatting about topics that are relevant and discussable.

And at some point Stephen mysteriously stops talking

Good conversation.

Your stuff about the quality of trade deadline and overall trade qualities is, of course, interesting. The conflicting positions are: more high quality prospects will create more trading...or more high quality prospects will reduce trading. And hte idea that the rating structure change will affect it, too, may play somewhere.

I've always been of the opinion that the first is more true than the second, but there are obviously folks in the other camp.

We'll see how the league adjusts.

a few thoughts on your san Fernando discussion:

1)I live in Manama, not Beirut #pearlnation
2)rug flops are great, hard to beat free food and booze
3)my catchers are an abomination and I completely forgot about don logan. I did get a few offers on guys right before the deadline, unfortunately they came at 1230 and 240 am when the sim ran at about 6 am so lets just say I was sleeping.
4)on what planet WOULDN'T I listen to this podcast.
