Hall of Famer for a Hall of Flamer...

I had an internet chat with a fellow DGF blogger just now about Pudge getting traded to the Yankees for Kyle Farnsworth.

Here's how it went:

4:38 PM
pudge is a yankee
WHAAAAT?
traded!!!!
for kyle effin farnsworth
holy shit man
and who else!?!?
um, that's it
no
way
that is correct
omg
4:40 PM
hall of famer, for hall of flamer
oh yeah absolutely
couldn't even get a pitching prospect in the deal
well, we dumped his salary at least
did millen make the deal for Davey Dom?
ha
me and my friends were just talking about trading pudge last night, so this is kind of crazy
because inge is as good, if not better, as a catcher
yeah but i don't like the .216
and pudge can't hit in the clutch
and he's a little bitch
while Inge will at least hit a home run once in a while
sooo, in a way I'm ok with this, but I wish we could have grabbed a prospect with the Farns
right
A line from Major League comes to mind in all this:
"Wish we had this guy 5 years ago."
"we did"
"10 years ago then"
4:50 PM
hahaha
exactly
they must be laughing about this deal in NY right now
yeah, well
just wait until they're in a game 7 with one out and two men on in the bottom of the 9th, down by one
up comes rodriguez
DOUBLE PLAY!!!!!
or pop to 2nd base
haha
i bet the call from cashman to dave D went something like this
"Hey Dave, big daddy cashman here. I see your bullpen is wild, erratic, and a bit of a zoo. How would you like to add to that with one more wild, erratic animal?"
it will only cost you your catcher
hahaha
dave d: "SOLD"
lol
"Yeah Dave, he'll fit right in with Jonesy, Rodney, and Joel"
