As reported earlier in a comment thread on the Number one Cub's blog, Bleed Cubbie Blue, we have learned that the Cubs are inquiring about a deal to bring both Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz to the Cubs for Jose Macias and Corey Patterson.  

It was reported here first, Al Yellon the proprietor of this blog was not available for comment which leads us to believe this rumor is true.

Steinbrenner just signed kyle farnsworth to a 7 year 75 million dollar deal plus incentives (saves, K's, TKO's).  Mariano for Patterson, and Mitre.

to have to ban people from my site.  Never had the need in four months at RotoAuthority.  

I'm all for constructive criticism - you'll see tons of it all throughout the comments sections.  

Now, when a person's vocabulary is limited to "you suck," they're not adding a whole lot, are they?  There's a difference between being critical and just making blind accusations.

Do you have any reason to believe I do this?

"pull headlines from espn and local papers and post wild thoughts from message boards on a site and call them rumors"

Or are you just bursting with vitriol for reasons unknown?

You found most of my rumors on Pro Sports Daily and ESPN prior to my posting, and I didn't credit either source?  Wow, you'll have to give me, I don't know, some examples of that.  

Let's see here, 48 posts, and "most" of them found before I posted them on those two sources...I guess you're going to have 25 rumors that I stole.  I think if you can give me 20 you'll have something there.

Anything from another website is always cited.

Cards Nearing Huge Trade - 4 possibilities mentioned - one of which was a free agent signing - you're right man, the majority references free agent signings!  How dare I mislead the public like that!

Looks like my source missed on Pierre.  Believe it or not, regular guys can compile legit sources with hard work, and not all rumors come true.  Why don't you point out any of the rumors I got right and had first?

You tried pretty hard to make it look like I ripped off Viva for my Buehrle post.  In reality, I gave full credit to the site and prefaced the entire thing by saying it was pure speculation (ie, just a fun idea by Lboros).  

did ya see what he did for us last year? Cashman has got Hendry on speed dial for him.

you never know where the communists are hiding on your team.

The Cubs announced last Friday that they have literally turned nothing into something by summoning Aaron Rowand, Daniel Haigwood, and a PTBNL out of thin air, and then trading them to the Phillies for Jim Thome. For verification of this, go to the most trusted Cubs transaction site in all of baseball, the one hosted on the Cubs' official webpage. Since there is no transaction showing how the Cubs' acquired the three players they sent to Philly for Thome, it must be that these players were simply summoned out of thin air. For more info on how this was done, go to directions posted at this  reliable webgroup.
