Mr. Blocker:<br> If you continue to talk out of turn I am sending you to detention. Our class discussion is about $1 to $3 draft picks. When I get to the $7 players, I will call on you--if you behave yourself and raise your hand. <br>
And note that your Avila, at $5 more than Salty Dog, hit his 19 home runs in 437 AB; Salty belted his 16 in only 341 AB. For two bucks, that ain't shabby. Jeffrey knew what he was doing when he drafted this young slugger.<br>
Now, if you're prepared to sit still, we can continue with our class. Or do you need your ADD meds, young man?<br><br>Brother Brad<br><br> <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Sep 20, 2011 at 8:38 PM, Mark Blocker <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mbblocker@aol.com">mbblocker@aol.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
