SleepyPlayz 75 Posted Friday at 08:53 AM Share Posted Friday at 08:53 AM My general flow was interrupted randomly at some point in the day when I got a notification on my phone from what felt like the worst app to be on. Twitter. Hell on earth for most people. I rushed back to the apartment I had and quickly turned on the microphone to start recording a podcast. "Hello one, hello all, my name is Agustin Martinez, and I'm here with a story. Now, this isn't just any story, it's a weird, silly story, and it's centered around one of the biggest points in most sports; the trade deadline. While yes, trading is important to some people, a minority of those few seem to seem to put a huge importance on trading. Of course, Rome isn't built in a day, and sometimes you can build up an empire with a few good pieces, but generally, I feel like some people put a huge importance on trades when they join a team's management. While I don't fully understand any of this, since I'm a literal fucking teenager, the idea of trades has been on my mind for a while. I have the power to single-handedly ruin a franchise, and maybe, I just might. And, anyways, let's get onto that story." I turned in my chair, an audible squeaking sound heard. I sighed and put my hand on my head, trying to remember that story I wanted to tell. After rambling about trades, I just forgot it at random. Sorry, I make the rules here. Anyways..." Now, was the hard part. What franchises did I hate the most, despite having zero opinion on any of them besides the Riga Reign, who I despised? "My first trade idea to ruin the league would be: Vancouver trades... uh... Pierre Marc Bouchard to the D.C. Dragons for You're Not Fucking Retiring. Maybe that's the most balanced trade out there actually... How about we add Vancouver's first? VAN 1st and Pierre Marc Bouchard for YNFR! How does that sound for ruining teams? Then uh... I heard Los Angeles and New York hate each other so how about we trade away Taylor Swift to the Mediterranean, since I hate her, and also trade Joseph Dubois and the 2nd round Los Angeles pick for New York's Maxim Anisimov! Since Los Angeles is last in the conference, that'll surely spice up New York's roster and also somehow, Los Angeles. Let's just dump Riga into the seas. And by that, I mean... I don't mean... but I do mean? Let's trade someone to Warsaw. How about we trade Axle Gunner and Tim Robinson and their first pick, just because I hate them, to the Warsaw Predators for Montgomery Burns. That's it. That's the trade." What else could I do that didn't involve me taking out a somewhat big chunk of a team and place it onto another? Let's try to move on from the absurd moves... "What about trading... Jack Dickins and Erik Thorvaldsson on Prague to HC Davos for... their third round pick and... uh... J-Johnny Tsunami I guess? I don't know, I'm just a lil guy, a lil goob. Don't come after me for these, these are purposefully bad. Thank you, good night!." And with that, recording had stopped. I uploaded this to Spotify, titled it appropriately; "How Do I Ruin You," then I laid back in my bed and sighed.

To be fair I traded myself as we wanted to keep the team together but when it became obvious that we couldn`t we started trading other members!! LOL!! Same will likely happen again but not for the trade mentioned!! LOL!! Vancouver would want a 1st at least and prospect!! 1 hour ago, Daniel Janser said: Did Bouchard get a letter this season?

The word probably doesn't stick to one's memory from the games, it wasn't used many times in them. I probably wouldn't have remembered it, and I've played all three multiple times; I remember it from the books. Honestly, The Witcher 3 is my favorite game ever. I use the soundtrack (not just OST, but I have all sound files ripped from the game) for my Witcher styled DnD world. But yeah, RDR2 is awesome too!

I grew up a bit downstream from that, about 40 kilometers from Sázava.
