Re: 500

Some of you really crack me up.  Judging our team , which has had all of 2
preseason games, based on the team they are competing against in that second
game.  HOW RIDICULOUS IS THAT????  Trade for Spree.  You bitch about Toine
and then in the same breath want us to trade for a guy who is the epitome of
selfishness, based off of his most recent actions.

Honestly, if you have ever coached anything in your life, you would know
that this is the time to see what people can do.  No more, no less.  Winning
these games means jack and so do comparisons based upon these meaningless
statistics.

Wait til the bell rings.
