Don't get me wrong, I'd love for this deal to happen. Griffey would fill two of our biggest needs in a CF and LH power hitter. Plus that deal would open up a ton of cash to resign our guys or go after another starter.

Damn, so when I am hiding in your bushes trying to get a shot off, I will have to remember to pull out half of your lights.

Does Cincy have the cash for that? By my quick crude figures, they would have to add at least $10 mil in payroll for '04. Plus Ken Griffey would have to approve it.

If that is even the truth...

Good point about Simas and Howry...

Someone can't exactly read then. Here is the article.

I see it in the NFL all of the time, but I can't think of anyone in MLB who has renegotiated a contract. Anyone got any examples or links? This just seems like something the players association would ixnay right away.

That is pretty much where I was going to go with that question...

That is now the 2nd Bonds tie in to be involved in something like that. Barry is also associated with the THG ring. What are the odds that he isn't involved in using something? Slim to none if you ask me.

Out of where?

OK that makes a lot more sense. I guess my next question would be how do you ruin 6100 seats???

I think Urlacher is really missing Ted Washington. He is getting many more blocks on his than he used to. And actually is seems like Briggs is the one benefiting from Urlacher being bottled up.

I think Ricky Davis has benefited from having a selfless guy like LeBron running the show overthere. It makes him look more selfless when he has someone finding him, instead of forcing his shot to score. There is no arguing his scoring ability and potential. He just scares me coming to a team that has another me-ish PG in Crawford. I just don't feel like it would work.

Well every coach is a scapegoat for a bad team. Hell Jerry M was a scapegoat for the lazy ass effort that this team put forward. Did we get rid of the players? No we fired JM. Firing the coach is the nature of the beast.

I don't mind the Toronto scenario's, but why bring in Ricky Davis? This guy is just another Jalen Rose, who only plays offense, sleeps on defense, and is a shoot first pass later self-centered player.

This is JR's favorite player. It will be interested to see if he pushes KW to resign Graffy or not.

So how did 6600 seats disappear that fast?

I think Anaheim sounds like the place where Bart will land.

The $3 mil salary difference was the deal breaker there.

You almost have to. This team has just been so flat so far this year. There is playoff potential there and they are 4-10.

For the first time, we aren't even having Thanksgiving on Thursday. Too many of the inlaws are working so we are celebrating on Sat.

IMO, if you are going to have a death penalty, this HAS to be a case to use it.
