[USML Announce] Open Letter to Non-Contenders

[Brad Jansen]

Dear Everyone But Mark Kerber:
   Forget it.  It's time to put this season in the rear view mirror.  You
either have been too tired, too busy with your asset portfolios or just
plain woefully inefficient managing your teams to create a roster strong
enough to battle the Nukes.
   But I have a proposal.  You read Jeffrey's insightful and on-target
analysis of my keeper cache.  It grades out an "A" for a very good reason.
These are players you can build a future around, a future that certainly
offers more promise than your current performances. Take a moment from your
schedules to look at my keepers.  All 40 of them.  Make me an offer.  Look
what happens if we try: you get top-notch cheap talent, and maybe I can
weave a little magic...an A-Rod here, a Crawford there, some starting
pitching, Miceli in my bullpen (oh, bother, I meant Hansen)...and, yes, I
can create a team good enough to knock the Nukes.  If I can dismantle a team
and still finish ahead of the Berliners, think of what I can do if I rebuild
one.  BUT I NEED YOUR HELP!
   So please, be reasonable. If we work together, we all win: TEAM--Together
Everyone Achieves More.
   Join my team.  Make a trade. Fight the tyranny of the Nukes. I'll do the
dirty work, but I need your tools.  Thanks, everyone except Mark Kerber.

Your friend, your ally,
Brad Jansen
