I don't think that is fair. A lot of YES votes are focused on the name. If Iggy played his whole career elsewhere I would t be nearly as interested. He is an icon here but more importantly I feel he would bring an emotional boost to the team, and city if he returned that could produce enough adrenaline to upset some teams this spring

Before someone jumps on me for that comment please not I think it could happen but it could also be a dud move. He will cost very little therefore I think it is worth the risk
