Re: Barros' Condition could Nix Trade

[Joe Hironaka <j.hironaka@unesco.org>]

This does look bad....a three month, possible career-ending injury.  Gaston
better be willing to give back the three million dollars to try to make this
deal work out.

But knowing Gaston, that's gotta be the last thought that would enter his head.

Maybe Boston can work in Randy Brown's cap figure to replace Barros in the
offer, although it won't work on the face of it. It is as if the ghost of Alvin
Williams has come back to haunt us.

The headless chickens have come home to roost, so to speak.
