me: what if i give you carpenter/espinosa and the 2nd.


Maybe he took that "/" as an "or" and not an "&"?

Yeah, I took that as either carp or Espinosa, but not both.

why would i propose the same exact deal twice

i started it with "what if", which generally means im upping the ante in trade talks

Typical TBM tactic to say "what if" and then offer the same exact trade. IMO.

Yeah, you were offering the 24th, right? I said he was offering just a pick higher. That's the pick I got, the 23rd. I see what you are saying about the round. I was mixed up. I was saying that his pick was only 1 spot ahead of yours. And reading that, it looks like you said carp or espinosa. If I would have known it was both, I would have instantly accepted and not taken Jews deal. Oh well.

Yes, I'm joking. You've always been pretty straight forward with me on trade talks, LE.

its not a big deal, i thought in the context of the conversation it was obvious it was a direct counter to what Jew was offering. prob should have worded it clearer

Like I said, no way I would not have done your deal. I was in meetings all day and was checking the board and chat inbetween.

I'm just spitballing here guys. Playing devils advocate on Ports behalf. Marle coulda make it perfectly clear by including an ampersand.

Yeah he is always straight forward, I just misunderstood. Sucks. Would have helped me. I like the deal w/ Jew but for sure would have taken lester's offer.

I too got a kick out of that.

On Beachy, I wasn't looking to make a deal but couldn't pass on him at that price, even if he does have an inverted W.

& you still decided to deal JJ after I got BB? Are you just risk adverse or something?

it wasn't perfectly clear

contextually I thought it was pretty clear that i was upping my offer. I can see that if he was on his phone and busy how it would not be clear.
