(Please realize that I hold dogs in the highest esteem and that the best a person can hope for is to behave as honestly and sincerely as dogs do.)

It was a bad business move to give out a 10 yr. contract to any player. Time will tell.

Not saying they won’t increase with intensity/frequency if the Molina thing plays out this year then Wainwright the next, all bets are off then!

I’ll save my tirades of betrayal for later on both of the above, time to go lace ‘em up and defend now.

Winning cures alot, ya know?

That’s right. Your Nazi face melts off. I thought everyone knew this.

Think of it like a divorce that caught you totally by surprise. Yeah, it might have sucked for a year or two….or three…whatever….but eventually you’ll realize that you are happier without all that drama/BS (in this case, the albatross contract that causes the roster to be chock full of holes).
