    You're funny....in a pathetic kind of way.

    Also, I didn't use window at all, and I applied sample size properly. Your desperation is showing.

    Care to talk about baseball rather than your own embarrassment now?

    We made trades to help our teams.

    If there were rules that said you can't make trades via examples A-B-C-D but trades are made via those examples anyway, then call it collusion or cheating or anything you want. Short of that, it's called a fantasy trade.

    It can seem anyway you want it to seem.

    Unfortunately, guilt and unjust punishment were applied via appearance of.

    I adhered (and adhere) to posted rules.

    Let's be clear. You were both in two leagues. You agreed to make trades that favored you in one league and him in the other. You were each tanking in one league to help yourself in the other. That was collusion for the purpose of cheating. You both confessed, but at least he had the decency to stand by his confession. You couldn't even do that. The league has been infinitely better without you.

    Do Trea Turner and Max Scherzer not like one another? There are trade talks going on with both of them. Turner has made it clear that he would only want to sign long-term with a team on the East Coast. Scherzer seems to only want to go to the West Coast. Both could have a huge impact on a new team, though I'd be concerned about Scherzer breaking down after being scratched from a recent start.

    I don't know what he said or did and don't care to parse thru his motivations.

    I have said from day 1 that our trades in multiple leagues could favor both sides in both leagues. We helped each other help each other. I play up to the edge of the stated rules, but I don't tank shit.

    Now, show me the rules barring trade strategies in your league and then I'll say, Yep, I broke the rules. But you can't show me said rules because there were none.

    You need the last word ... go!

    You cheated. You can dance around it all you want, but you engaged in collusion to cheat both leagues. You are a liar and a cheat and our league is better off without you.

    Now you can prove your point by not replying. For once, you can be right about something. All you have to do is stop. I bet you can't.

    Guy has no rules in place but accuses people of, and punishes people for, breaking rules and cheating. Rich.

    Last word oop ... go!

    As you know in the last few pages, I'm not the one who opened the door, or window.
