But when you <i>explain how Rule V works to us</i> it would be condescending and a bit insulting, if it weren't kinda comical...not because everyone on SOI knows everything about how transactions work (I only ever read Rule V in the last few months) but because we all have the same access to the information.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I already appolagized for coming off as talking down to you. What else do you want? A ritual sacrifice?

FWIW, you can't stash a Rule Five pick on the 15-day DL all season. He's got to be on the active roster for a certain chunk; I forget the chunk, but it was the exact number of days that David Patton was on the active roster.

I want to say 90, but don't quote me on that.

That was the number in my head, too. I wrote a whole BN post about it, but this is how lazy I've become. I'm not searching for it.

Shit, that doesn't piss me off. I deal with a ton of dicks on the Chicago Bears board I help Mod on. Re-reading it, I can see their point, but that wasn't what I was intending. As I statedin my last reply, I just minunderstood what he was asking.

I don't think it's <i>that</i> condescending to break down the rule 5 rules. Hell, I probably didn't know exactly how they worked until a year or so ago. It's not like he was breaking down the infield fly rule for us.

hey, anyone got the verbiage on Rule 5 handy?
Fat Bastard is an immensely obese, hardly able to walk (weighing a metric ton) gardener and henchman hailing from Scotland. His extreme size endows Fat Bastard with super-human strength as exhibited by his prowess in the Sumo ring from Goldmember. This makes him a formidable enemy for Austin Powers. Fat Bastard is noted for his foul temper, his frequent flatulence, his vulgar and revolting bad manners and his unusual eating habits, which include taste for Human infants (which he calls "the other other white meat") or anything that looks like a baby, e.g. small people. Fat Bastard has been a regular at Cub games since the early 80's when he tried several times (unsuccessfully) to eat the visiting San Diego Chicken.
