Well I proposed my brother Crabtree for Beanie Wells in our the league the other day. He's been pondering all week. I then tell him I'm on the verge of acquiring Ocho Cinco. Here is the exact transcript from Blackberry Messenger. I found it hilarious.

QUOTE
Bro: Trade me Smith if you get Chad.
Me: No can do...
Bro: Oh well i'll just keep Beanie.
Me: If I get Chad. My WR's would be Marshall, Smith, Ocho
Me again: Oh, so no on the Crabtree for Beanie?
Bro: Haven't decided yet
Me: Oh ok, well let me know.
Bro: Ok


You paid attention, you'd get it. Anything funny ever happen during a trade convo?

Furcal15, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Wait... what is funny about this?

Your bro decided he'd rather have a better receiver than Craptree who is below a rookie playing in a run-first offense with a crap QB for easy-schedule Beanie?

Well it was just definitely a me moment.

I get Chad he wants Smith, I say no, he says no to Beanie and then seconds later, he tells me he will let me know if he wants to do it.

you know when you tell a joke and nobody laughs but you...yea thats called a fail. and I failed obviously.

That was an utter joke/waste of time. You're right - this thread is the equivalent of solving World Peace in comparison.
