    I knew it was B.S., until some Gomer had to sticky it!

    Funny, GAC! I told the guy at Dairy-Mart this morning, while getting cup #1 of java, the same exact thing! He is a big fan and we tend to talk baseball when he is working. He got angry... grumbled about being fed up with the REDS management.

    Then I said, April Fool's Day!" He laughed and took it well!

    Re: Dunn traded to LA

    To sell a proper AFD thread you need a dateline and several creative paragraphs. Include bogus quotes from the GM, player, etc. (I was thinking more along the lines of Jason LaRue getting dealt, but I was too lazy to seek out teams in need of a catcher and what prospects they had to offer)
    Never overlook the obvious

    What a roller coaster ride of emotions! I'd want to shoot you :bigboom: , but I"m so relieved to have been duped that I don't care...Darn you, GAC! I have to admit my heart was in my throat. That was a good one, but don't do it again.

    Have to admit the first thing I said when I came onto the site and saw "Dunn traded to LA" was s*@t!!! I didn't even remember it was April 1.

    I actually felt my blood pressure go up in my head. I was so mad it was unbelievable. You are not right. It reminds me of the famous Sports Illustrated spoof that they had years ago about the pitcher for the Mets that could throw 130 MPH. I believed that too. Of course I was around 16 at the time.
    Tim McCarver: Baseball Quotes
    I remember one time going out to the mound to talk with Bob Gibson. He told me to get back behind the batter, that the only thing I knew about pitching was that it was hard to hit.

    The only reason I doubted the story, even before I linked onto the thread, was the thought that if Dunn really was traded, the whole board would go down and it would be several days before I could access RedsZone. Heck,if the Reds traded Dunn, my computer might explode.
