Fantasy Baseball Trade Review Help
Team A gets
Team B gets
Is this trade LM vetoable? If not, can it in good faith be at least voted against? Or do you allow it/vote for it?
If the specifics factor in, Team A is that annoying guy who's trade proposals you aren't even opening anymore because they're all of the same quality as Jay Bruce and Andres Torres for Miguel Cabrera. Team A is in 7th place (on the cusp of the playoffs) and Team B is in 11th place and 26 games out. 12 team league, 3 keepers.
Gonzalez arrested on shoplifting charge
The Lions weren't picked last in power rankings and this happened. I'd say Mike is doing mighty fine today. Continued good sex, I mean, continued good sex at your court appearance, Coach.
Keeper Limits Question
I didn't delve too far back into the archives before I posted this, so if this is a repeat topic, I apologize, but I'm looking for some input from other fantasy owners about the possibility of changing my own league.
Our league is a 12 team, 3 keeper league. I started thinking about maybe adding some sort of limitation on the number of years a team can keep or protect a certain player. The thought being that it adds a little more turnover from year to year. Obviously, Pujols is likely to be kept on the same team for the next 6 or so years. However, on the other hand, people can always trade for these keepers (in fact, Pujols was traded for last year) and maybe if you draft someone on the young side, you should be able to hold on to him for as long as you want.
1. So, do people who have used some sort of keeper limitation like it and
2. What type of limitation do you think is best (e.g. only a certain number of years, dividing the draft round in half each time he's kept etc. etc.)
Tony and Le Batard took up the injustice of the ending of the UofL/Seton Hall game yesterday on PTI. I'm not going to say that my tweet to PTI about the ending is the reason that it got on, but I'm not not saying it. Skip ahead to 7:25. Tony's got our back.

Scottie Reynolds Withdraws from Draft
Scottie Reynolds has withdrawn his name from the draft and is coming back for his senior year. Crap nuggets.
Standing Room Only Qs
I have "standing room only" tickets for the flyers game on the 26th. I've never had standing room tickets for anything before, and I haven't been to a hawks game in years. Can anyone break down how this is gonna work? I understand that the designation is pretty self explanatory (I will be standing) but I don't know if there's a certain section etc. etc. Any comments, suggestions, or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Unique Louisville shirts
Has anyone seen or know a place that sells "unique" cards shirts? Unique isn't exactly the right word, but I'll try to explain what I mean by that. When I've gone to visit friends and family at other schools (for example, U of I or IU), they seem to always have these stores that supply a ton of college merch but also have some non-official merch like screen printed (often hilarious) tshirts. See http://bp1.blogger.com/_nQZLOCqglvA/Ry5Ca4k-PHI/AAAAAAAAAFQ/sff9TZn0cQE/s1600-h/OUR-COACH-CAN-EAT-.jpg
I've yet to see or find anything like that here in Louisville. I have a ton of cards merch but I would love to add some unique, only-student-body-would-have type shirts. Syracuse had some awesome shirts that fit this mold. They had a "Greg Robinson's Farewell Tour" tshirt made http://www.zazzle.com/the_robinson_farewell_tour_shirt-235115898835372121
and they had that Donte go (or something like that) shirt for Donte Greene.
If we have another year of Kragthorpe (and unfortunately that seems like the case), I think it would be awesome for someone to make a shirt for it in the same spirt as the Greg Robinson tshirt. I'm sure they would sell like hotcakes, which I'm assuming at one time or another, were quite the thing to buy.
ESPN Louisville Stereotype...
story appears on TNIAAM. Check out what they have for Louisville.

ESPN canceled plans Thursday for a TV ad campaign touting its college basketball coverage after learning that the actors were to depict sometimes crude stereotypes of students at specific colleges.A leaked memo from Anomaly, a New York agency that has produced past ESPN ads, described a casting call for actors in which it sought someone to portray a Tennessee student as "a slutty girl who would hang out at the cowgirl hall of fame" and a Notre Dame student who is "an Asian kid ... who's always fighting."
[ LOUISVILLE ]
MALE. Louisville is very true to place. He's short. He's HISPANIC. And one day he hopes to carry on in proud Louisville tradition and race thoroughbreds.
