Dear Droolers, My DH is so excited by the Roy Halladay trade that he started to let his imagination run wild-the result is posted below. Just so you know, Arthur is my 5 year old bassie boy and  mommy says he is not going anywhere!               Kathleen and Arthur of Canada

Hi Everyone,
I know you are all aware of today's big sports news in Toronto, Seattle and Philly, the baseball trade moving ace pitcher Roy Halladay to the Phillies and Cliff Lee to the Mariners.  You probably are not aware of another major deal currently in the works involving the same cities.  Details are below

Dateline Toronto, Dec 16, 2009

Super-agent (and cool cat) Vinnie Boom-Bah has announced that the #1 bassett hound of the Toronto Poopies baseball team, Arthur Rudolph, is about to be traded.  Vinnie expressed sadness that the soon to be free agent and ace dog of the team has to be moved at the height (lowness) of his career.  Arthur has agreed to waive (his tail) at the no-trade clause in his contract.  

John Rudolph, co-owner and eminent doctor of poopology, admitted that he was reluctant to trade Arthur, but that his star bassett's odor and drool will never be greater and noted the current economic climate demanded that ownership keep a lid on expenses like cat food.  Arthur was seen frequently leaving the scene of an empty cat dish and Vinnie is hopeful cat food supplies will stabilize once the trade is completed.  The deal is in place and the poop bags are full, all that remains is for Arthur to pass the physical examination requested by his new team - the Tri State Bassett Snooters.  

The Snooters are based in Pleasantville, NJ, and handle bassett free agents from NY, NJ and Eastern PA.  They have long desired to acquire Arthur, a brilliant bassett with exceptional dewlap (the loose skin around the neck if you must know) and long ears.  The Snooters agreed to the Poopies' demands for a case of Yuengling Traditional Lager Beer, 6 packages of Habbersett Scrapple and one case each of Tastykake butterscotch krimpets, peanut butter kandykakes and chocolate juniors.  Super-agent Vinnie Boom-Bah has arranged to "flip" the Scrapple to the Seattle Humane Society in exchange for a bag of kittie treats and a box of cat litter.  In addition, the Snooters have agreed to Arthur's requirements for weekly nail trimming and ear cleaning.

When asked for his reaction, Arthur said "Ahhhrrrooooooooo" and promised to comment further at tomorrow's press conference.
