Every year.

Sadly?
That’s the best part!

We need a hybrid Chia/Benning mockmanteau:
There are two sides to a negotiation?

Who in their right mind would request a no move clause in Edmonton?

In this instance it is to keep them from sending him to the minors I'd guess.
Also to avoid a trade to a worse place, like...... ummmm... Buffalo?

In Edmonton, you are only in danger from dying of depression and boredom. In Bakersfield there is that along with the much better chance that you will be murdered. It's a fair difference.

I come to this thread because it makes me chuckle, and have a bit of chiadenfreude. Sometimes, I’ll try to be a bit witty and post something.
And most of the time, I shake my head and laugh because you couldn’t make this oilers stuff up! These last few pages...none of it is made up! No one has to be witty or funny, we just post exactly factual information!
