O.K.  don't hold any thing back.  How do you really feel about Geiger?

I don't want to see geiger in a C's uniform.  As for taking care of Walker, 
wait until the end of his 3rd year.  See where the CBA is and what the market 
is. (this could be dangerous).  Most likely the C's will still be in the best 
position to offer the most RESPECT (ie MONEY).

Peace
