No kidding. This argument is really a strange one; it's like they think that
we're still paying Knight and Mills' salaries or something. Somehow they want
to penalize Pitino twice for McCarty and Mills; they conveniently ignore that
Tony Battie replaced Knight and is a bargain at his current salary; and the
reference to Walker is ludicrous. Are they suggesting that they'd rather pay
Mercer the max and let Walker leave? Real smart.

These guys always criticize but never offer any better alternatives, because
they can't think of any.
