I don’t think the plan was to not spend money. If we had gotten Choo or another the payroll would have gone up to that area, I think the plan is to only spend the money if the deal is right. I do not see them spending just to spend,

and Rios is owed 38 million dollars and a different player shows up under his name just about every year. you never know what you will get from him

Right now what is our payroll compard to last year? Given the fact that we haven’t gotten a left fielder yet, I’m just curious.

OK – This has freaking gone on way too long and something needs to be done to shut this ^%$&*ing ahole down for good.

Just got a peronal FB message (after I had his sorry ass blocked) from Lentz “Too bad the Connecticut gunman didn’t shoot and kill you and your fellow imbecile so called Braves’ fans.”

Anyone know what further steps we might take with FB and have him totally thrown off the place? Talk aboput warning signs of insanity – this guy is exhibiting them all. He needs institutionalization before he actually hurts someone – or a lot of them.

I hear you. Thing is, I have zero desire to know any more about computers than I know now. I can google, youtube, and blog a little. Otherr than that, this thing is a glorified type writer and typing isn’t a strong suit either which is obvious to anyone that reads my posts because when I go back and read mine they often appear that they were written by a “not so smart 3rd grader”.

Same here. Generally speaking, I work on computers at work all day (email, reports, blah, blah, blah)… The activity you guy see from me on this blog is basically the only thing I do on the computer outside of work besides paying bills. I had a roommate in college that would literaly be on the computer all afternoon, the entire night, and through the early morning… EVERY day. I wouldn’t even begin to know what the hell to do on the computer/internet to keep me that busy :)

Heath – We’ve been talking about it all week on the blog – DAP set up a FB page for us where you on’t get on without an administrator agreeing to your membership. DAP set it up where either he, I or DOB (who declined due to his already massive workload – though if he wants me to now include someone, I will go along with him and sure DAP will, too) agree to admit them.

I never sought power on this level, but considering that I’ve been here since almost the beginning and due to sending out so much artwork to bloggers, I know who many here are (and have never abused the privilege) and can vouch for many applying. Send me (Lew Hartman )a FB friend request, letting me know it’s you and I’ll add you. DOB gave the site name above in a recent post.
