Yup.  Should learn to keep my mouth shut about speculative deals, though I 
thought I was "safe" because it was reported by a major news service.  
Just another reason to be very suspicious of what you hear/read.  I didn't 
think I needed another example, but clearly did.

This deal is much more palatable, even to me -- and still only for the two 
years.  The bogus deal might have been a signal that Palacio would start 
or get major minutes.  Who starts now, I wonder?  Kenny?  Really?
