Re: Bulpett Highly Critical Of Lari Ketner

[Josh Ozersky <josh_ozersky@yahoo.com>]

I don't think I'm ready for draft talk.  What makes you think we would
have a lottery pick if there was a draft?  Good to see (noting Ray's
other posts) that there are big cracks appearing in the union.  I love
that Cousy has finally come out and said what I've been saying all
along -- that the rank and file are brainwashed and/or intimidated. 
"Brainwashed" was Cousy's exact word.  Mine too.
