Which 5 Players would you leave unprotected?

Agoos--I don't think he would be chosen, so this is a way to protect other players, one would hope this would be explained to him first
Lagos
Russell
Conway
DeRosario


Tony

 

Definitely trade Tony!

 

Lagos
Russell
Waibel
Conway
Levesque/Corrales/Walker.

Only player I could only see them wanting the middle-3, possibly.

 

Conway
Levesque
Saunders
Russel
Lagos

 

you know...i hope you're getting some blood work done before going unprotected.

hahah, i couldn't resist!

 

No way, I'd pull a 'Dayak' and force a trade back to the Quakes.

Conway

...and if we needed a sixth: Conway

 

Doug,
Sometimes I don't think you like Conway.

 

Not to get all Prop 54, but if the Chivas-managed club is going to steer itself toward players of Hispanic descent, would it be a dirty trick to leave unprotected only Anglo-type players, knowing that Chivas wouldn't select them?

 

F*** the Chivas.

 

That's pretty simple, since you may lose Agoos anyway for salary cap reasons, expose him and hope the Mexicans take him and his salary. The other four have shown nothing really, so I doubt they would be picked up.


Conway
Agoos
Waibel
Saunders
Levesque

 

Is there any reason at all to leave Russell off the list?!

The happiest day of my life would be if Russell suits up for Chivas in San Jose.

 

Since Chivas only chooses native-born Mexicans for its club in Mexico, maybe we should make their San Diego-(or wherever)-based club choose only Americans born in the United States.

 

Lil miss potty mouth!

 

Well, he definately makes the list of 10, he'd make the list of 5 if Agoos wasn't pulling down so damn much $$$.

 

That would be nice. Although they can always draft non-Hispanic players and then trade them for Hispanic players.
I bet, Antonio "Chivas" Martinez will be the first signee

 

Agoos - old/money
Lagos - old/money
Russell - production/money
Wrongway - sucks (except Landon would miss his hug after scoring a goal)
Leve - unknown

 

Must be the tat...

 

Would you really leave both keepers out there? Onstad's 35 years old...Conway's been shown up...do you really put Saunders out for the asking with the potential everyone says he has?

 

I just hate that team! HATE them! They make me sick! I still haven't accepted the fact that they're going to have a team in this league. THAT makes me sick. They can get their owner fishin' players somehow else. Fish them!

 

I think we will have to leave 10 unprotected, not 5.

There were 100 unprotected players last time, but only the best 30 or so mattered in the draft. Chivas would be dreadful if it could only pick from the 50 worst players.

I think we'll get to protect 8 players so mine are

Donovan
Mulrooney
Dunivant
Ching
Agoos
Mullan
Robinson
Corrales

I protect Corrales because he's mexican-american and would surely get grabbed.

I'm hoping Ekelund and Dayak wouldn't get taken due to injury history and age. Agoos seems to be indestructable, he might play till he's 40 and he's the leader of the defense. I don't think we'd lose Alvarez because Chivas' first priority would be to field a competitive 11 in 2004.

We can't waste a slot on the goalie because losing your goalie doesn't disrupt chemistry as much as losing a field player, plus there are still good american goalies out there (Reis, Garlick/Cannon, maybe Saunders, etc).

 

You'll have to excuse ldb, they just hauled away his 35 cars from his yard in Danville. Was it true you were still in the jeep?

 

If we weren't talking Danville here we'd be talking Jeff Foxworthy "You Might Be a Redneck..." material here.

 

Yep, that Danville. They won't me let me drive my 1935 Ford Pickup with the chickencoops on the back, either.
