    While other webmasters have posted training camp pictures on their websites in a timely manner, Clutch has failed. He claims the pictures were "lost".

    I have a very good source that claims Clutch did not "lose" the photos. If fact, my source claims that Clutch spent the day in a 6th street bar hitting on UT co-eds. Can somebody find out the truth so we can make the determination as to whether Clutch should remain, be traded, or put on I.R.? TIA.

    I'm not sure I want to be a Clutch-basher, but since I'm already a Crisco-apologist, I'll let someone else take on that role for Clutch.

    btw: Clutch would command a lot in a trade. Do you think we can force someone to take Caveman off our hands in that trade?

    How about Caveman and Roy D Elton?? We might have to throw in a few sheep to sweeten the deal and keep Mr. Elton "busy".

    It'll be tough to get fair value for Clutch.

    A dreamcast scenario would be Clutch for Jeff. Jeff knows what he's doing, but I don't think SOR will trade him.

    More likely, we'd be stuck with a 2 for 1 deal, like Bill the Rocket Guy, and BskBall.com for Clutch. Not a very good deal IMO.

    I say Clutch, Lhutz, Mango and maybe a DADAKOTA for Rob Neyer of espn.com. I'll take that trade anyday.

    Well, there you have it. He's lost his confidence here; you just about have to trade him now . . . and undoubtedly at a loss, like it or not. (Trust me -- as a Warriors fan I know all about this stuff! [​IMG] )

    The good news is, I know Golden State would be very happy to take Clutch off your hands. You can have your pick of Darryn Simmons (http://warriors.rivals.com) or Harold Sasaki (http://warriors.omix.com) ... although no one's notified them of the deal yet. [​IMG] Hopefully, neither will pull a Chris Gatling!

    The worst thing that can happen just did. Now Clutch is pissed at the site because of openly discussed trade rumors and has become a cancer (ala Mario Elie) I think we're just getting into a lame duck situation here where Clutch won't preform to the best of his abilities. Hopefully, the we don't do something stupid like trade for Dusty Garza just to please the disgruntled webmaster.

    Oh great, after we sign Clutch to a multi-million dollar contract for 12 years, he tanks it [​IMG]

    Reminds me of somebody, just can't remember who though [​IMG]

    HeyEvil, you post okay and all sometimes, but you aren't my doctor okay, so stop lieng.

    Isn't Clutch Cavey?

    How about throwing in some of Finn's posts in that trade? The BBS just isn't the same w/o bobo's frantic pace for 2000. [​IMG]

    Smeg can throw in a few Fosters and those, what?, 2 medals the Aussies won?

    Heypee can throw in a few hissy fits.

    DaDa can pitch in a 1500 word essay on the finer points of Marcus Fizer.

    Swopa can throw in Jamison. ( Cmon, it's only a matter of time before they trade away yet another "franchise" player [​IMG] )

    what was I talking about again?

    I have more value than that.

    What kind of dumb-a$$ would take Caveman in a trade. Is there a Lakers BBS forum? Hell, the took Isiah Rider on board, so they might be willing to take another waste of sperm in Caveman.

    But Clutch is no Hakeem on the decline. So what if he missed a training camp practice while hitting on co-eds. We should at least wait until the timing is right [​IMG]

    I think Mango is worth $1.50 a pound right now, but I'm not sure.

    Wait until the season's over, and his price will rise.

    I think we should trade the poster who posts the most, and still says the least. No comment about who this is... but he should be traded .
