Attention List Members (Was Re: Walker Haters)

["Witch Craft" <witchcraft1998@hotmail.com>]

Since there were no restrictions given in terms of attitude, age,
behavior, etc. in regards to the players being of equal or greater value 
than Antoine, the one's I named are all valid.  I forgot about
Coleman and Mason, or I would have added them to the list.  Since
Pitino's willing to deal Antoine for Brian Grant, he apparently doesn't 
concur with the list members' evaluation of Antoine's skills.

PS: Antoine is gone people, accept it - embrace the fact - or continue 
in denial.
