Nice Paul Young is a family friend.
I don't think we are in disagreement about anything here besides the AAA baseball analogy.
Then other people should laugh at me? Screw you! :) My apologies.
Learn to read dave. I clearly said that I wasn't on the receiving end so my conformity or lack of conformity isn't an issue is it? From one of...
Its just a discussion. And most people like me haven't been involved in these threads primarily because its alway the same people jumping in on...
The word whose meaning superdave still fails to grasp.
I just love your ability to not only personalise this but also grandstand at the same time while trying to maintain a modicum of false modesty.
If you had stated that clearly we would have no problem.
In all seriousness is it all possible for to repsond to anything I say without 90% of it being a personall attack? You simply can't be that...
I think I understand what the other poster meant by rehash. Yet another strawman. I don't see anyone saying they have any solutions. No one...
How can HE be right when HE isn't the one who made that point?
Of course it does. But that was my argument not your argument. You are now taking aspects of my argument incorporating them into your own and...
People don't only consider present value when signing players if people see potential in a player who is not worth 12k now but could easily become...
That might be start. But we can't lose sight of the overall goal: greater yeild from the players at the bottom of the roster. Paying players more...
Show me an American coach, hell any coach anywhere in the world who can tell the difference between a player who is only worth 11k and a player is...
We need to really stop with the minor league baseball analogies just because they are convenient. These players are on the roster of the top...
Dude. Do you ever get tired of repeat the same thing over and over and pretending you are saying something profound? We all get it and few of us...
Not everyone has the time to sit around on bigsoccer all day reading threads. For many people this is not a rehash. Furthermore some people want...
I just can't get as excited about it as much as others can. What we need is for the league to move beyond the point where 20-22 years olds who...
Oh no thats definately an issue. The quality at the bottom is low enough that you can find two or three players per year to supplant them but...
Therein lies part of the problem. We don't need more "bodies" we need more "player". I think you hit it on the head though. The dev player...
I am sorry but not its not because that is simply setting the bar at the lowest most comfortable level. That is a wonderful formula for staying at...
None of this matters to me as a ticket buyer. Its one thing to say "Yay, the league is finding good economic solutions that help the bottom...
I think that is setting the bar too low. There is nothing wrong with having guys who are capable of challenging players already on the roster....
Guess there isn't a great deal of development going on if the scenario plays out as you state. Its more of an extended trial for anybody the teams...
