[USML Announce] Trade

[Andrew R. Klein]

Mark-

 

You really think I'm going to run away with the title that easily this
year?!

 

Anyway, I'm honored to serve.  I also forgot to tell Buddha that there is
*no way* Jason Frasor will get any saves in Toronto this year ...

Aye.  Besides, it will give Andy something to do this year.

I propose that we formally designate Andy as the league historian. 

(Dispensing with a call for a second to this motion.) 

All in favor?

A bit of league history. 
  
  
  
USML trades are normally are announced via a Notice of Hot Wax Seal, rather
than simply an announcement of Trade. Buddha will be pleased to learn that
this tradition started with a franchise named Democrats for Nixon.  The
owner of that franchise, Alex Liberman, frequently would respond to trade
offers by shouting Hot wax seal it!, typically giving no more than two
seconds worth of thought the offer.  

  
  
  
Alex named his franchise in honor of Morrie Liebman.  Morrie was a very
senior partner at Sidley who was particularly kind to young, stressed-out
litigation associates.  (In addition to buying us lunch on occassion, he
routinely gave us his 50 yard line seats at Soldier Field!)  In perusing his
lengthy resume one day, Alex saw that Morrie served as national chair for an
organization called Democrats for Nixon in 1968. Upon learning this, Alex
immediately dumped his franchise name of Old Style Light and re-named his
team Democrats for Nixon.

The Republicans have traded Ben Davis and Dennis Tankersley to the
Protective Cups for Guillermo Quiroz and Jason Frasor.
