Around SBN: Why We're Skeptical Of LeBron James

Open Game Thread 8/10 part 2: The Threadocalypse

In a Sabean Vs Colletti head-to-head no holds barred matchup of who has the more ignominious trading history,  I think Sabean wins by a nose.   Of course, he has been doing this for longer and is probably nearing the end of his Giants tenure so....  I like Colletti's upside.
