| Message | I am going to be nominating "Mr. Shocker" Ken Griffey Jr. to the Hall of Fame. He spent many years with the Shocker organization and led the 98 ULB team to their only championship gold. I more than any other GM sttod by him in good and bad and stayed loyal and true right till the end. In recent discusions with GM H-Bomber, he has eluded to the fact that he may challenge this I believe as a joke. I am stating now if he does this I am leaving ULB and I will make his "Better than Christmas" Draft Day another member closer to disappearing. If there is a prank played on me like Pat last year I will also leave. SO now that this is stated, I too will be available any day just as long as my above comments are followed through. |

| Message | it will not be the same without springer ("springer" said in the same tone as "newman!" ... donny leaving highlights for me the incredible commitment we've had from everyone since high school... i want to thank don for the way he handled this decision by taking his time and also giving us plenty of time to assess things and move forward. i definately can relate to donny's in-season obsession and enjoyed harold gondalier/ulb story... as far as the auction. we need to aim for march 25-27 or april 1-3 weekends. i might be a pain to deal with in the scheduling of this year's auction. i don't have my work schedule yet, but my 4/4 sched is lined up to work both weekends unless i'm given lieu days or make holiday picks (low seniority). i should know more in the next few weeks... i think we should aim for march 25-27 weekend. rob will obviously be a game day decision with margo due march 31st. HNP's responses to Don's decision has sparked my own nostalgia... i actually looked at SS rankings today. and i really want to be at auction day. for me to make that happen i will likely need to use vacation time. so i will need a timely and locked in commitment from all ULB GMs in order to use vacation time (that i can't change) to book the auction weekend off AND a flight out. first step is to know how pat and harold's 4/4 scheds line up for both those weekends. which days/evenings are available (if known)? |

| Message | So What is happening with the pool, I am eagerly awaiting responses from other GM's in regards to the Fighters decision. When are we scheduling the draft for and who is going to be there??? Is Jeff or Rob alive?? I think the later would make a great ulb article. |

| Message | Some good news for Noel. Jose Canseco the other day tweeted the following "I can dh for any Major League team and lead the league in home runs, just give me the chance. I will not give up my dream of playing in the Majors again." I smell a Shocker slim pick |

| Message | The H-Bombers have an over abundance of signable starting pitchers and are currently taking offers on any of them. Available pitchers include Jon Lesters option, the NL bound Zack Greinke, the $1 stud David Price and the underated $1 Jerad Weaver who happened to lead the Majors in strikeouts, was tied for third in starts, was second in quality starts and fourth in WHIP. Make an offer we'll go from there. |
