YIKES!!!! Shifting Sands Draft Thread

[FoggyOne]

LOOKS LIKE WANER ISSUE CAN BE SOLVED VIA TRADE.

Any one else need relief?

[MEAT]

that would be an awful waste of waner's d munich, but it is a solution to keep us going...wish he was a 4 at first!

[Munich_Man]

I really want Hornsby more than Waner, if we have to go the trade route.

I have to go now and will be out for a few hours, I expect to return in about 4 hours or so, Can't be avoided. And I STILL can't load proxies on Penn's site.

[Munich_Man]

Bad timing, I know, but dinner with the wife and a Marine friend who is on his way back from Iraq :D ...

Can't she understand my priorities??? :roll: :wink:

[MEAT]

can I presume if my iron glove is a platoon, BOTH must be 4's? theoretically neither is really a "starter" but then again, both are. I would say yes, but looking for a clarification...

[Munich_Man]

[Munich_Man]

I'll give you Fournier and my next pick for Hornsby...

[MEAT]
