Occasionally management will make a real bad decision. Here are some of the worst decisions on the trade block in the history of sports.

	Red Sox sell Babe Ruth: The start of the curse and the dynasty of the Yankees.
	Colts deal John Elway to Broncos: In retrospect this looks terrible, but Elway was a prima-donna athlete who didn't know if he wanted to play baseball or football.
	Pedro Martinez goes from L.A. to Montreal: In his prime, the most dominating pitcher of our generation.
	Atlanta Falcons send Bret Favre to Green Bay: Atlanta viewed Favre is a life-time backup. Green Bay saw him as the man who could restore the Packer legacy, and he did.
	Reds trade away a "washed up" Frank Robinson to the O's
