[QUOTE=VladtheImpaler;7933724]Ok, I agree with you in the sense that it is beneficial to inquire to know the lay of the marketplace - good point. But there is ABSOLUTELY NO REASON why Treliving himself needs to be doing that. Maloney can perfectly well call Adams in Buffalo and ask about Ristolainen and say "what are you offering for us to take him?"

Certainly makes you wonder. Poor utilization of his team. They are twiddling their thumb while Brad has two phones to each ear. Owners give him a pat on the back because he "looks" like he's working hard all the time but he's working hard not smart. Ultimately hes getting less done than those that properly use their team I would speculate to. Of course this is reading a ton into a few random quotes from Conroy but I can see you being correct.
