Agents that make public announcements about their clients wanting a trade are patently dumb. There are only 30 other GM's, whose cell phones are on your speed dial. Of the 30 other teams, only a handful might need your client added to their roster and have a trade possibility benefiting your client's team. If you are ANY good at your job, keep it quiet, make your calls back and forth, try to assist a trade, plant a thought of a trade possibility in other GM's heads. At best, you'll find a trade. At worst, you'd get your client's GM aware of your player's being unhappy seriously enough. Why on earth would you wanna tell it to a TV commentator??? There is literally nothing good that will come out of it for your player. What an idiot.
