Chuck said last night that he wanted a new thread created for the lineups. So, could you please start that thread?
hey DHR... in late 2005 I made a couple of trades that aren't showing up yet because they were made after the deadline. As of the other night, Chuck said they were going to go through. This is just a heads up because you wouldn't have Clement if that stays as the policy. You can see the two trades on the first page of the 2006 transaction thread...
