Those of you voting no, I just don't know why or when you lost that romantic touch to your fandom. Perhaps it's just the way things are these days. We're all too busy looking at contract status, being conservative for the future of our team, over/undervaluing a player based on a stat line, declining or not...perhaps there's just no room for a bit of romanticized fandom in what has become modern fandom. I'm very much the same, but not when it comes to Iggy. It would be too great of a story.
...Iggy wearing the Flaming C and raising the cup would be absolutely beautiful. I'd cry tears of joy.
Voted yes, and I sincerely hope it happens.

Well said! It would be glorious if it ended that way. Most likely it wont but the chance that it might would be oh so worth it.
Its sad the reaction any player over the age of 29 gets on these boards.

What's the risk if he's acquired for next to nothing and GG doesn't put him in the lineup over guys who are performing?

And this. We dont have crazy forward depth as it is. I'd take a slower Iggi in the playoffs over Vey any day of the week!
