Boom. The Downer crowd can now find something else to complain about. 17.5 a year, 38 guaranteed. Exactly what they had as their final offer. Good deal for both sides, and the Hawks stuck to their guns.
This sends a solid message imo. And with the cap jumping quite a bit the next few years, this isn't nearly as scary as people make it out to be.
And these numbers are what is REPORTED. How often do we find out a deal isn't as big as originally reported? Quite often actually.
Now to get Brown extended and let's rock!

As my grandma always said, ain't nothin' more delicious than a big bag of Dicks.


Really good news. Honestly I thought Adams would take this all the way up to game 1, so relieved to see him signed now.......and yes, PLEASE GET BROWN EXTENDED!

The devil is always in the details. :twisted:

Often, it seems like the 'appearance' of the deal matters more than the substance.

Anyway, good to see this is over. Let's play some ball! :snack:

The Seattle restaurant is much better than the "Dicks" we have over here in Spokane. I think it's the fries.

In regards to Adams, glad that's finally done.
Now let's go take care of Duane Brown and get this show started

That's not very becoming of a MOD on this site now is it? I suggest that this topic be Shacked.


I'm always surprised at how uptight this forum can be, when it's 90% dudes over the age of 40. Who exactly are you afraid that this offends?

Excellent deal for him. Glad it worked out.

I dont see what Florio was wrong about. It was contract negotiations, which tend to be fluid and emotional. What appears to be true one day could be different the next. People acquiesce. People have changes of heart.

I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic looking at his use of Shacked

My apologies, I forgot the negative Nellies.

Here’s a bag just for you.

We have optimists, and we have pessimists. What has age of forum participants got to do with it? From statistics I read we're lucky to have each other.
As for 'journalistic' wannabees, take a tour of internet marketing sites and see what you learn about tactics for admission to that club.
