    I was definitely all Griffey. He was my idol as a kid. But I’m surprised ARod was left off.

    Kemp hurt the most. I was obsessed with the mid 90s sonics and I couldn't understand it.

    sonics with kd

    Ehh. Easy to say now. We had him for one year as a 19 year old rookie. I think everyone knew he'd be good, but not sure people were projecting him as a top-10 all time as you probably can do now.
    it was obvious he was gunna be a star. He averaged 21 a game on 44% from the field as a 7 ft 19 year old 2 guard.

    Yep. It was easy to see that he would become elite. Cause fudgie doesn't like to just throw that word around.

    At one point, Woody looked at me and said, "I just traded a guy with a bad back that didn't want to be here for THREE big leaguers (Freddie, Guillen, Halama), and everyone in Seattle thinks I'm a fucking idiot"...In the business, this trade is known as a draw...csb

    Everyone thought Woody was a fucking idiot because he was (and a shitty GM). The RJ trade just went on to further prove that point.

    Dennis Johnson. We got 36 games of Paul Fucking Wetsphal . Fuck Paul Westphal

    Another trade that got me torqued as a kid was Gus Williams for Tim McCormick + Ricky Sobers

    Tartabull trade was when we realized the M's were the minor league team for the rest of the league.

    Most of those guys on that list wanted out. I think Payton was cool with staying and that trade worked out well.

    Chinned for Fuck Paul Westphal

    None.

    I could quickly name 10 crootin misses that hurt way more than any of those choices.
