I know MD hates political or religious discussions taking place on the boards.. but I will say that I would love to see him win. I would a be over the top with happiness if him and Hilary ran on the same ticket.aboveAverage wrote:We need to trade Michael Redd for Barack Obama. Then we would finally have a true leader on our team.

I believe trading Redd is a great option for us, his value is high and he has not delivered for us, Yeah sure he can score but to be the main player in a team you need to do more then that, he game has not developed in a way which would make us a better team.
I know we would miss his offense but who else has the trade value

Please refrain from posting anything to me. It's taking everything in me not to cuss you the f@ck out for calling me a lying bitch.adamcz wrote:CBQ, you have the power to end this. How many keystrokes would it take you to type the name of your sources? 5 or 10? Why did you type "look it up" instead of the person's name way back before this was an argument?

I disagree that he hasn't made any improvements in his game, this or in other seasons. I still agree with the original poster that Redd isn't the guy we need to focus on as far as trading someone. If we can get a wad of used stale chewing gum for CV, Simmons, Gadzuric, and/or Bell.. I would take it, so we can get some guys on here to really support and produce next to our starters.magpies wrote:I believe trading Redd is a great option for us, his value is high and he has not delivered for us, Yeah sure he can score but to be the main player in a team you need to do more then that, he game has not developed in a way which would make us a better team.

This is where you should have said who those insiders are, before it became an argument
adamcz wrote:By who? We have so many "insiders" here that it's hard to keep track of them all. GAD said that it was we who withdrew the offer, and we did his agent a favor by allowing them to act like it was SAR who turned it down. So which of our "insiders" overrides that?
This is where you really should have posted who they are instead of being flippant and rude.CBQ wrote:Look it up.. there were plenty of posts that confirmed all this stuff.
This is obviously going nowhere, so I'll try my best to stop posting in this thread. But CBQ, I think you're smart enough to see how you provoked all of this by either lying or being disrespectful from the beginning. I can certainly admit that I crossed the line with name calling, and I know you don't want my apology... but I hope in the future you will approach discussions with others more respectfully than you approached this one with me.

F@ck you.. and stop talking to me. I am trying to let this go and move on. It was initially my hope that we could continue to have a discussion, or approach the subject on another day and attempt to talk things through. You have ruined that by being continually disrespectful and I have nothing else to say to you at this time. Oh one more thing....adamcz wrote:-= original quote snipped =-

I never disrespected you. I never lied. I had a discussion with you, and you didn't like my answers.
Initially I said I didn't want your apology because I wasn't upset YET and it wasn't necessary because I was able to look at it as just a discussion. Now, I don't want it because I don't believe you are genuine. Even after the "apology" you continued to be disrespectful.. and that was uncalled for.
So don't post anything else to me, and I will do the same with you. If you are incapable of leaving me alone I will either put you on ignore or ask for you to be suspended.

More likely I would talk about how cool it would be to have a combination of Yi and Horford!DH34Phan wrote:If we all sat around and got baked, europa would start talking about TJ Ford, CBQ would start talking Al Horford, then me and DannoMac would start taking D-Ha, all while Twirly is serving us pizzas.
I like where this is heading.
