Re: Chad Ford Says Kedrick Brown A Mistake

[Ryan W <ubiquitous_am_i@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ray, 

The lesson being, as always, fuck Chad Ford and
everything he has to say.  

Of course, we should have kept Joe Johnson, but
Kedrick will be just fine....but Danny, when you gonna
pick up that option?  According to the paper, the
decision to pick up the option has already been made
(i.e., they not undecided, just lazy)...I guess Chad
Ford isn't a very diligent plagarist.
