    See, you are claiming picks that didn't sell could have, then calling people stupid ... just like I predicted. Yet you told FTW you had no insider knowledge.


    If no pick sold prior to Mason, Ojeleye and Bolden getting selected, then how do you know we can buy it? It's a legit question. Tell us. The only way so far is for you to claim they were for sell and we passed.

    But go ahead and dodge that very simple question again.

    Heyp,

    Quite possibly my favorite tactic in his entire bag of tricks:

    I'm not wrong, though it would appear so to any intelligent person; in fact, you're just too stupid to understand my brilliant logic.

    No you didn't explain at all how you can buy something that was used rather than sold.

    weak sauce ... Just like I predicted...dodging the question.

    If you can't understand that we could have bought Bell for $3.5 million then you deserve time lose the election Hillary.

    'holic claims we could have bought the picks for Mason, Ojeleye or Bolden, ignoring the fact that no pick sold for cash before they were selected.

    And he's also saying this isn't based on any insider info, after FTW called him on that, but is claiming it's just common fact that teams can buy picks from other teams regardless to whether the team owning the pick wants to keep it or not ... you just didn't offer them enough money, apparently.

    That 3.5 million may prove invaluable when dumping Anderson later on. It helps offset the pain of the contract (if only slightly).

    You may be a person, I don't know. Or you may be a democrat. Or you may be a whole bunch of democrats banding together to type up your message. I don't know. But one thing I do know. You ain't people.

    (Now can we get back to basketball?)
