No one knows anything about how he feels about being away from his family. So calling it a "bluff" is ridiculous.
Maybe it wont bother him, maybe there is no chance he leaves his wife for that long alone with children. I certainly understand both sides of that coin.
Also, there is little chance Seattle is anymore a SC contender than Calgary, so any incentive that way doesnt exist.
Francis as a long time player like Gio, certainly would also have the understanding of not wanting to move if such a move isn't wanted.
all this is just speculation though.
My guess is that Gio makes it known he would rather not go, BT makes a small side deal with Francis to not select him and Seattle takes someone else.
