The things we think and do not say. My GM mission statement.

Finished year one and won the world series in a 7 game extra innings game as the Blue Jays. Thank you thank you.......
I need pitching and unlike the real Jays I'm willing to spend some moolah and offer longer year deals than I should. Thats how I roll with fake money fellas. 7 years 30 mil annually? You got it mr. Strasburgh. But I've drawn the line.
Clay Buchholz has been giving me the runaround for the better part of a month telling me he likes my offer just to come back a week later to tell me I'm trying to rip him off. Sooooo I offer more. The last one was the straw that broke my back. Keep in mind his rumored demand was 4 years 9 mil. Four failed negotiations later and and with my prowess for imaginary money generosity I was up to 16.5 mil a season for 5 years like some crazy sick maniac . I just received an email that told me I'm offering him pennies when the Royals are going to pay him more.
Now to my point. I want sooooo bad to be able in game to tell Mr.buchholz to go #$%& himself. Not just yell it at my computer screen, which I did, but I want written, email, documented proof that I want him to literally do himself.
I also want to be able to tell every GM that offered me a trade like Mike kickham for Josh Donaldson that they should lose my number, email info and kill themselves.
I realize that this feature would have no real practical use than making me feel better but I'm OK with that. Thanks.

Also I'm clearly kidding around. This game is awesome and I'm glad a game can elicit the kind of emotion that it does. Off to year 2.

Ever play Football Manager? The press conference function? They have choices for your answers but also a box where you can type in what you want to say to the reporters. It has no real impact but I've let off some real doozies...

I think this post should go in the suggestions thread. I'd like the ability to tell certain players/GM's to pound sand and not come back.
