| Message | The funniy thing about that alomar bid for $20 was that he came back to finish second or third in MVP voting that year with Cleveland and turned out to be a bargain for Harold. I also liked Pats epic three minuite speech before making the #2 overall selection in 96 about selecting a franchise left handed Mariner who everybody thought was going to be griffey, only to take Randy instead. I had the 3rd pick and had already written down the big units name on my sheet and then had to scramble to figure out what I was going to do with my squad. I ended up leaving my five starters for my last five picks getting Dennis Martinez, Jaime Navarro, Denny Neagle, Todd Stottlemyer, and Ismael Valdez. Somehow these five pieces of crap got me about 24 points in pitching and the ULB title. My favorite all time memory however has got to be the Knoblach fake injury, leaving the regning two time champ devestated with his third round selection. What the Hell, I'll bid myself up, Carpenter for $7. |

| Message | I am still waiting for offers at my new e-mail address sharmanfamily@shaw.ca Just to clarify a minor discrepency, Only you Don have been this lame for 15 years. Okay maybe you and Cougar but definetly not HNP. This said, I am waiting for Harold to turn face on Pat and I as per usual when the lines are drawn. Anyway, one of my favourite memories has to be the near back to back drafting of players who were playing in Japan, I believe it was Kevin Mitchell and Julio Franco. Also I think the 1st Self bid up in auction history from Dan was pretty funny or even Alomar for 20 dollars was hillarious. So many to choose from. Any way I hope to hear from someone soon on that certain right handed pitcher who wears #29 and was a Blue Jay. |

| Message | i'm sure this has been done before.. but i hereby declare the jewel of fighter yester-year to be our honorary captain for the upcoming season.. anyone is welcome to draft slammin sammy, but barring that bizarre possibility I officially welcome him back to the fighter fold. i know that Pedro's super-breakout season in 97 (i think it was) was probably my best pick but no one brought me more joy than sammy did in the summer of 98. what was it, 20 bombs in one month, or something ridiculous like that? I thus a have super-soft spot for him and hope he has a great comeback this year. but i am not drafting him so i'll name him captain. unless of course he hits 20 this spring... Anyone else care to share the highlites/most memorable moments from the past.. what is it now, 14 years? this is our 15th anniversary!! holy crap, have we been this lame for this long? i can't believe HNP still hasn't changed despite all this time. wooooo.. victory guaranteed baby! |

| Message | Prior threw today for the second time this spring giving up four hits, four runs, in two innings. He threw 40 pitches, mostly fastballs topping out at a whopping 83mph. How much this year Dan? |

| Message | I have sent several e-mails to Noel as well inquiring about a certain right handed pitcher. How about we do a banter board auction for his services? I'll start the bidding at $6. |

| Message | Don, I have a new e-mail address. It is sharmanfamily@shaw.ca and I have not received any of the e mails you have sent. |

| Message | Just checking but I believe it is only an extra 15 minutes to Chilliwack from Abby. Unless you are travelling on a Don Springer Fastball. I think you meant extra hour in total both ways. You must have been cheating off of Harold in Industrial math 11. "1,2,4,5 I know how to count" |

| Message | sorry.. abby is there for us. i meant forget about me driving the extra hour to chwk on a saturday night. |

| Message | I am serious, I have the school any time we want it, I have access to all of the rooms so we can have lots of space for the draft. Don can you please clarify if you have booked it and to forget about it or It is booked and we need a new location. |
