Psychopath Registered: Sep. 00	With the recent flurry of trades in the NHL, got me thinking what are some of the worst trades in Sports history. Juan Samuel, Lenny Dykstra trade. Nolan Ryan traded from Mets before he was a HOF. There are a million. Wear your grudge like a crown of negativity. Calculate what we will or will not tolerate.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00	How about the Cowboys trading Herschel Walker to the Vikings for 3 Super Bowl Titles. Or the Knicks trading Patrick Ewing for Luc Longley and Glen Rice...thats the main reason the Knicks are where they are now salary cap wise. After that move stemmed another bad move, and another, until you have the mess that you have now.

Psychopath Registered: Sep. 00	Cluster, you mentioned NFL trade. What about Ricky Williams in exchange for the New Orleans Saints' franchise for the next 45 years? Wear your grudge like a crown of negativity. Calculate what we will or will not tolerate.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01	quote: Nolan Ryan traded from Mets before he was a HOF Yeah, Mets have had quite a few. Nolan Ryan (HOF)+ Leroy Stanton for washed up Jim Fregosi. Amos Otis (multiple all star) for washed up Joe Foy Tom Seaver in prime for Pat Zachary, Doug Flynn, Steve Henderson, Dan Norman Lou Brock for Ernie Broglio. What about Sales? Sale of Babe Ruth, Sale of Julius Erving?

Psychopath Registered: Sep. 00	I guess if I was a Yankee fan I would have liked Roberto Kelly for Paul O'Neill (crybaby). Wear your grudge like a crown of negativity. Calculate what we will or will not tolerate.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Feb. 01	Rob Blake for Adam Deadmarsh, Blake helps Avs win Stanley Cup I'll think of more in a bit. Wealth is too precious to be entrusted to the rich BIG THANX TO AUSTIN FOR THE SIGPIC

O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00	quote: Rob Blake for Adam Deadmarsh, Blake helps Avs win Stanley Cup No way, I dont think the Kings have done too bad with Deadmarsh and Miller. They nearly beat the Avalanche in the playoffs last year and have been one of the best teams in the NHL over the past couple of months. If they had a goalie better than Felix Potvin they could probably be a serious Cup Contender. Rob Blake helped Colorado win the cup, but guys like Sakic, Roy, Bourque, Drury, and Hejduk might have a little to do with it too.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jul. 00	That was the Chicago to Chicago deal.. he began his career with Texas and was traded with Wilson Alvarez and Scott Fletcher (just remembered) to the White Sox for Harold Baines and I think somebody else, in '89 I think my mask of sanityÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â is about to slip

Psychopath Registered: Aug. 01	The Phillies trading Larry Bowa and Ryne Sandberg to the Cubs for Ivan DeJesus. They will never live that down.

Psychopath Registered: Oct. 00	quote: how about the '96 NBA Draft, Charlotte trading the rights to Kobe Bryant for...I forget. Vlade Divac. That really wasn't their fault, Kobe refused to play for Charlotte. A few other doozies: Nets-76ers Julius Erving for cash (and not even alot of cash) Yanks-M's Jay Buhner for Ken Phelps Yanks-Red Sox Babe Ruth for cash (I believe) Mets-Indians Jeff Kent and Jose Vizcaino for Carlos Baerga Thanks to Brokenjaw for the sigpic The official mantra for the Olympics â€œquicker, higher, strongerâ€ has been replaced by â€œcomplain, protest, boycottâ€ for the Salt Lake games.

Psychopath Registered: Sep. 00	quote: Mets-Indians Jeff Kent and Jose Vizcaino for Carlos Baerga Didn't the Mets also trade David Cone for Ryan Thompson and Jeff Kent? Someone told me once that there's a right and wrong, and that punishment would come to those who dare to cross the line. But it must not be true for jerk-offs like you.

George Bell!! OK I guess your talking about the Texas to Whitesox deal. Thats not the trade in question though. Sosa never flourished for the Whitesox, and Harold Baines is a Hall of Famer. The bad trade which this topic is about was the Whitesox-Cubs trade where George bell went to the Whitesox and Sammy Sosa went to the Cubs.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jul. 00	True..though Bell and the White Sox had a couple of good years, 93-94. Still a bad trade though And I don't think Baines is such a HOF lock, he'll probably make it eventually though, since everybody does nowadays. He didn't reach 400 HR, or 3,000 hits, and pretty much stopped playing defense in 1987. But if Gary Carter came as close as he did, I'm sure Baines will get in at least on 2nd ballot I think my mask of sanityÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â is about to slip

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01	quote: Nets-76ers Julius Erving for cash (and not even alot of cash) Yanks-Red Sox Babe Ruth for cash (I believe) sounds familiar (hoo hoo ) :o quote: Didn't the Mets also trade David Cone for Ryan Thompson and Jeff Kent? Was this such a bad trade? Mets weren't going to re-sign Cone, and we now see what Kent turned out to be. As far as Mets bad trades go, remember when they traded away Kent to Indians, Indians sent him to Giants (for Matt Williams who didn't do much in cleveland) before he became good. Same with Jeremy Burnitz (sent to cleveland, but became good when cleveland dealt him). As for David Cone deals, Mets ripped off KC worse: David Cone for Ed Hearn

Hopefully he'll be what he was in Milwaukee. We still need pitching. Someone told me once that there's a right and wrong, and that punishment would come to those who dare to cross the line.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01	Dodgers gave up Pedro Martinez for Delino DeShields. Expos gave up Pedro Martinez for Carl Pavano and Tony Armas Jr. Yankees gave up Eric Milton, Cristian Guzman, Danny Mota, Brian Buchanan and $3 million for Chuck Knoblauch. I love you all. I love you more than life itself... But you're all fucking mad.

Knoblauch was a key contributor for 3 World Championship Teams, and Eric Milton is one of the best young pitchers in Baseball for Minnesota

Knoblauch botched more routine throws than even Steve Sax, and his offense was awful too. He never lived up to the gold glove winning, high OBP second baseman the Yankees were supposedly getting. And like you said, Milton has turned into a VERY good pitcher. Hell, Guzman alone turned out to be as good, if not better than Blauch-head. I love you all. I love you more than life itself... But you're all fucking mad.

No. Its not like the guy hit .220 for 4 years. When Kansas City makes their first appearance at Yankee Stadium and Chuck Knobluach gets a standing ovation, then tell me again how the guy was a useless and this should be considered one of the worst trades ever.
