Hey, thanks, Cecil.  I'm starting to warm up to this deal: I like having 
Delk signed long term.  What did we really give up?  Can Rodney Rogers 
play like he did a few seasons ago, when even some hardcore Pitino critics 
had to admit he wasn't a complete loon for wanting him?  Hell, Way/Ray 
hates it -- how bad could it be?  And, from the looks of it, the C's were 
looking to dump the pick anyway.  Maybe it's right, maybe it's not, but at 
least it was the plan, they did it, and are now presumably moving on to 
the next stage in the plan.  Well and good.  Hmm, I wonder what Rogers 
will be looking at to resign?

I am noticing that only ESPN.com is reporting this, though; nobody else 
has picked up the story.  Yet?
