The older I get, the more things annoy me. But when people try to break down trades into something else, it really bothers me. We got two scrubs, a 1st and a 4th for Palms and Zajac. It’s not a first for one and a 4th for the other. 

I also don’t like when people try to combine trades and say “Basically we got so and so for so and so” when there’s like six degrees of separation in between and sometimes the deals are not even related.Orlike the idiots who said “basically we traded Kerfoot for Butcher”, which is not even remotely true. One didn’t sign with is and one did. So basically we traded every player on our roster for every player that decided not to sign with us. 

If you want to try to make it something else in your head, great. But it doesn’t work that way and it’s not one pick for one guy and the other pick for the other guy. 

Like Sterio said, 17 games of Palms, in his sh!ttiest season as a Devil, doesn’t get you a 1st round pick. 

Yeah well what i'm seeing a lot is basically people getting frustrated and see some injustice or unfair result.... based on their own expectations based on what they want to believe.

Like for example. God knows how many times i've seen hockey check getting reviewed to see if there's suspension. Well... most fans are like "THAT'S A HEADSHOT BUT I BET THE LEAGUE WON'T EVEN SUSPEND HIM BECAUSE THE LEAGUE IS AGAINST US" when in reality the principal point of contact was the chest and might have got the chin eventually. Then the decision is taken... no suspension obviously. Then of course they all lose their sh!t because in their minds... a player literally hit their player in the head and didn't even get suspended. They just can't see the truth for what it is.

So i guess it's the same thing with trades or wtv. Sometimes fanbase will be convinced that their player is worth more than they think and then get upset at a return that is actually quite fair

What’s your point? You asked when the last time was, and you got the answer.

I quoted CR - he said he would'nt be surprised if some of those guys re-signed with us, and then I said I would be.  Then I asked my question. Is that ok with you? 

Not sure what I might have done to you, but I feel like the last few times you've responded to any of my posts you been really short, maybe even agitated lol. If I did something, my apologies.  You seem edgy.

Nico and Jack say hello.

And to be clear, I like both players a lot...but they still feel very “new”.

Our fan base just craps all over everyone and everything because they were fvcking spoiled for 20 years. The woe is me sh!t gets really old after a while.

I'm guilty of the woe is me stuff too. Its been a lot of losing. But I always have hope for the young players. You just never know when a Coleman or Bratt can come out of no where

No, you literally asked when the last time it happened was. It was answered (by me and like 5 other people) and your response to that was weird. 

I’m not agitated, I’m fine. I don’t know if you read my posts but I’m not exactly passive aggressive lol.

True. But they are the faces of the franchise now. As of last night, it’s officially their team.
