No one can make someone go anywhere for a job. You always have a choice whether or not to agree to go, or not go knowing it means you may no longer have a job.
I agree wholeheartedly. I'm just not buying this idea that Kipper is facing some kind of unique issue, or that the management and fans owe him more than they owe any other player under contract. I don't think he should be suspended. But I don't think he warrants any kind of special consideration either. And I would expect that any future player for the franchise, regardless of his status, to be treated the same way by management and fans when he balks at being traded because of personal issues.
