Patrick Duffy Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Surprised I haven't see the "snake oil" post yet in response to this. Lol
fansince88 Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Next week we will hear complaining that there has been nothing from OBD.
Irv Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Jeez. No mention of fans power slamming each other through tables. 1

All of the extra picks are late round selections (I think 4, 6 and 7) Expand That's what I think every time I see that. Hopefully they can package some of those lower round picks for another 2nd day pick.

Logic Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 I appreciate the letter and I like Brandon Beane. But as our former GM Foghorn Leghorn once said: I don't wanna hear about the labor pains, just show me the baby. 1 1
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 It was a necessary “checking in” sort of fluff piece, to let the masses outside of OBD know that work is proceeding on track and at a torrid pace. Strangely, I do feel an iota better after having read it. 1

Not left out, under appreciated. And any fan who has stuck by this team shouldn’t feel under appreciated. Expand Well you know about it now. Mission accomplished.
