I believe he meant that this is Round 1 of the 2+2 Buy or Sell game.

You lose.

[Vince Young]

1: Sell, buy
2: Buy
3: Sell on Lee winning the triple crown, as well as anyone spelling his name right in this thread

Buy or Sell Bogut becoming a top tier NBA player and the right pick for the Bucks.

[/ QUOTE ]

These are two completely different questions, and I don't think it's right to lump them together.

I concur. That's why I didn't answer this the first time I read it.

Ok Ok check it out had the idea to run alittle competition here like Around the Horn on ESPN. So here is the setup for the competitive banter, I will put up three questions you guys give me your take and then points will go out (1-10 per question) for the best answers. Then the top 75% of the crowd on points will move on to Round 2. Since this is the first Round everyone is welcome to grab a piece. Anyways you get the idea here we go:

Question 1:

Last night the Bucks grab Andrew Bogut with the top pick in the 2005 NBA draft. Buy or Sell Bogut becoming a top tier NBA player and the right pick for the Bucks.

Question 2:

The Atlanta Braves are gaining ground on the Divison leading Nationals. Buy or Sell the Washington Nationals winning the NL East.

Question 3:

Derrick Lee continues to tear up pitching and leads the majors hitting 387. Buy or Sell Derrick Lee winning the triple crown this year.



Alright there you go.

Bogut - buy. Immense amount of talent, etc etc etc. Just the Bucks will need to grab a very good lottery pick next year and keep Redd around to have a prayer.

Nats - Sell, heavily. Pitching and hitting are both above expected, and everyone else in the division is underperfoming.

Derrek Lee - Sell, even as a Cubs fan. He's way over career norms and will need to SUSTAIN this in order to out Pujols in almost everything, plus he still has to get ahead of Andruw and Carlos Lee.

I understand that they are two different questions. I was trying to create more oppurtunities for people to have different opinions. Ex. I buy that he is the right pick but I gotta sell him becoming a top tier player, etc.

It is obvious some people thought this was a good idea to pass the time so just enjoy it for God sakes. This board isn't life and death here.

Then you should also know that Stat Boy kills any panelist who doesn't commit to either Buy or Sell unequivocally.

Not only that, but he's only been in the NBA for a day and he's already referred to himself in the third person and that's just not acceptable.

I thought this was required.

Bogut is the right pick for the Bucks. No way he becomes a top tier player IMO.
