?? Again, I am baffled by your unprovoked attacks.? I dare say you cannot cite a single email I penned in which I touted a Riptorns' prospect (although I recall that in some delusional rage you claimed a note about Corky Miller amounted to some invitation for bid).? What do I care what teams may know about my roster; it's public.?They can?see what I have, and what I don't. 

?? Your anxiety and paranoia are beginning to frighten me.? Look, I know it so happens that I seem to have earned?a shot at second?or third while acquiring keepers or players I like such as Kubel, Salty and C.C.?(sounds like an old puppet show on WGN, doesn't it?), but that should not give you cause to just randomly?fire off?your salvos like that crazed Korean dictator.? Mark, please, if you want to win, then I want you to win, okay?? If that's important to you, so be it.? But I ask you: Have you seriously considered what capturing first place actually means? A couple half-hearted congratulatory emails that nobody reads and a perfunctory compliment on draft day while everyone else is stuffing his face with a pastry (or, in Rick's case, a health
y snack).? If that means something to you, have at it.

?? But, Mark,?I am not your enemy. No, your enemies are guys like Jeff and Rich, guys that will sweet talk you into trading away talent like Price and Wieters, players you could have kept on your roster to enjoy for years, and for what--a chance for some brief and fleeting moment to bask in some earthly glory called first place?? And if you do?say "Yes, Brad Lee, it really really is worth it," then I will accept that and respect your position...but in turn all?I ask of you is?that you stop treating me like a? punching bag.? I'm human.? And I hurt.

Regards,

Brad??

Jeff and others:

?

? I, for one, am quite excited for the Wieters Debut.? While he is unfortunately no longer on my roster, I am very interested to see how he does once he is up with the big club, and not just abusing minor league pitching.? My other former "prospect" David Price is already up and looks sizzling; enjoy, Rich.? The league should take note that these high quality prospects emanated from the Bombers roster, not the Riptorns, for as Jeff quite correctly notes, Brad is almost never right about prospects.? As Mr. T would have said, I "pity the fool" who takes some of Brad's meager prospects once June 1 rolls around.? Brad may be walking down the Path of Truth, but he ain't walkin down it with any good prospe
cts in tow.? Buyer Beware.
