Hola amigos! TGIF. Not that it matters cuz I work from home but still Wow lotsa chatter today. Ecstasy pills, sugar mommas, dirty jokes... I LOVE THE MT!!!! :lol: No wonder our popularity rating is on the rise on FCB. Can't believe they haven't renamed the site MTB.

Ok enough silliness. Only thing planned this weekend is returning the van to the dealership since the lease is up. Gotta clean up the kitchen, straighten up the house, hopefully watch some football on Sunday. And I apologize for being a fan of such a terrible team. ::facepalm::

Glad to see you in good spirits! MT is an interesting board within the board.

Feeling pretty positive today. How are you George? Hope you can land #60 soon. Hows the little one? You guys excited for her first Christmas? That's always always fun. At least it was for me. Just watching them sit in all that wrapping paper flipping it around. Priceless.

Dave, in fact she is getting up right now so I should attend to her, but I am on the look out for a stuff Lock Ness Monster

Dave - Morning bud!!!

So reading some baseball signing info, thoughts on StL being interested in Dunn if Holliday signs elsewhere? I could be on board for his 40HRs

Dunn plays where??? Or do they move Pujols back to 3B??? I would love to have Dunn hitting behind Pujols, but I just dont know where they can put him, and I am not sure at this point if putting Pujols at 3rd would be a good move.

I would like to see the Cardinals resign Smoltz and Derosa and then try and land someone...either Dunn, Vladdy, Bay, Holliday....something...could be an interesting offseason as the Cardinals are never afraid to make trades.

Hell they dropped 18 mil off the books with Greene and Glaus alone.

Actually I am in korea,

but I've heard that they may have a card that I have been searching for years,

if you don't mind could you call them and check if they have it?

You dont move Albert, period. Dunn played 84 games in the OF last year, so if Holliday does not re-sign the OF could be Rasmus, Ludwig, Dunn.

Alex, how in the world would I get stuff toy from Scotland before Christmas? Hopefully I can find one in the US.

 

[MojoDan]

An AL team in need of a solid DH should have a lot f interest in someone like Dunn

Hmmmm....could work I guess...couldnt be any worse than having Chris Duncan on patrol out there.....would still like them to try and land Bay...he would fit in great in St. Louis, and I dont really know why Holliday would even want to leave with the way he hit in St. Louis...he was on a terror, unless he thinks Yankees, Mets, or Sox are going to sign him.....

I wouldnt rule the Cardinals out of the Holliday sweepstakes yet.

Agreed, but those teams, like Detroit, are trying to dump salary not take it on.

StL is not out of Holliday yet. NYY has little interest it seems, maybe LAA takes him on but I dont see it. AL teams are afraid of what he did in OAK. I like Bay but that looks less likely.

Thats why you buy it from the site then wrap up the printed out receipt, then Big O can use her Big Eyes to read what she will get when it is shipped :lol: Honestly...that was the first link I saw in Google. I have a couple toy stores over here I could check for you if interested :mrgreen:

Sure is. We arent going overboard since we like to buy him stuff all the time and ripping the paper seems to be his favorite part anyway.

 

[MojoDan]

I'd like Holliday to stay in STL, Bay to return to BOS, and see Dunn go somewhere like SD

 

[MojoDan]

Tim must still be opening mailers, I bet its some great stuff....
