You're posts are too frickin long.
When you write a novel like that I just cut to the insult and respond quickly.
My ADD won't let me dig into your chaos that deeply.
But this one is shorter so sure ... I've answered it 1100 times in the last 8 months.
- I firmly believe owners make the call on the franchise player, not the GM
- I don't have a problem with said owners going for it with Sutter and the season they had proves that out
- Guessing the return before the NTC kicked it was underwhelming given the season he had
- I think they came pretty close to pulling the whole thing off (risking the window and keeping the player)
