From Philly to Las Vegas?

Should this happen?

I don't care either way. I just want to hear what the members of SBH2 have to say. You guys will be deciding. If you vote, no one will know your identity. You can vote and comment if you want.

To tell u the truth, i dont c how this can be a bad thing...just a new team

BTW, should this NOT be approved, the pending trade will not go through either; So don't let the trade affect your decision.

Also, another note;

75% of the GM's have to vote that they approve. Right now it is at 57%.

75 is too high i feel like

Well, that's 3/4.

Las Vegas has a team

the Dodgers AAA team, Las Vegas 51's

yeh, and ur point is????

the city has a minor league team(Brooklyn) and 2 major league teams...Colorado has a minor league team.

i think every1 should post a reason why this should or shouldnt happen, because people could be voting for the hell of it... this could be a good/bad move

I don't really have a reason why it should happen, I just don't think anything bad can come from it so I don't see why I should object.

that is what im saying, how can anything bad come frome it?

I really wanted to move to Vegas, but now since 7 people voted no, for no reason, i cant.

yeah I dont really get it either

people ruin the fun

So wat is going on? Am i going to move or no

At the moment, the poll says no.

W.e I think that is total Sh** because people voted no for no good reason...lol just to vote no. that is gay. and u said the poll would close on a certain day, i think that day i had 73% of the votes.

Dude, you can get mad as much as you want, there is nothing I can do about it.

Also, 73% is still not 75%. I said it would end late Monday, and I think you had even less of a % then you do now.

really, i thought it was more..hmm anyways ok sorry. go online. aim i need to talk to u about teh trades

The dream aint over yet, though, Nifty... We'll see what happens.

I'll give you a reason why I said no.

Because there is no good reason for you to be moving. How can you expect a reason from people on why they say you shouldn't move when you haven't even given us a reason for why you should move. You're not in a financial hellhole, so you're not moving because you're not generating enough revenue. Philadelphia is a good baseball town, so it's not like you don't have any fan support.

If you give me a good, solid answer, I may switch my vote.

Thanks for giving a reason, but with all do respect there is no reason for you to worry about Philladelphia. I understand where you are coming from but i was in a financial hellhole before i made all these moves to get the money neccessary. I had -5M. THen i made trades for 170M. But how would you like it if you were doing something in Atlanta and i came and started saying stuff about Atlanta. You would tell me why do i care, i coach Philladelphia. Do you see where i am coming from?

I voted yes, Mainly because i don't care. Like Philly said there is no reason for me to worry about what they do(unless it's gonna affect Detroit). However, i see exactly where BravesFan is comming from. There really is no reason for Philly to move. They were 1st in their divison, had a really good record and made the playoffs. As far as the financial issue and Philly being -5Mil, that was only because of the Offseason signnings and the trades they made durning the season(they took on more money then they should have). Philly was waaay over their cap space for most of the year that's why they were -5Mil. If they were under the cap they would have made money instead of losing it. When this site was first open i had Tampa that was a "financial hellhole" b/c their cap is soooooo low and it is REALLY hard to build a team when you are only working with 60 or 70MIL (Tampa's coach has done a great job getting talent on his roster despite the "financial hellhole"). If that was Philly's situation i'm sure the move would have been approved.

All the people that voted yes prob voted that way b/c they don't care. All the people that voted no prob voted that way b/c they do care about what this could do to SBH (i.e. Division changes.. etc) and you can't be upset with them or fault them for careing.... On the other hand you could fault those of us that don't care...
