Joey,

The purpose of the managed teams is to improve them so they will be taken over.

1) This is not happening. Lone Star has battled for 1st all year-no one was interested. 3 teams in B14 are battling for playoffs. NO ONE IS INTERESTED.

2) Everyone knows deadline. Mike turned down deals all year long and now after the fact, he's ready to deal Bonds? That is not right!

3) Furthermore, the team most likely interested in him Golden Gate knew the deadline well and tried to make deals as well. Unfortunately for them, they could not reach agreement with that many teams because they may have been asking for too much. SOOOO-becaseu they were unsuccessful dealing duringthe deadline, they now have more merchandise to use for Bonds.

THAT IS NOT RIGHT.

I feel very strongly about this.

4) The Manager-Less Teams are dead. There will be no takeovers. Mike should have the trade management responsibility removed from him and the teams should be disbanded.

If Bonds is dealt, the league integrity is totally compromised and I will adjust to that accordingly.
