They summer Neal was signed (with people like Duhaschek saying it was a good move) Treliving was also seen as having "won" a bidding war for Czarnik and the move that was questioned was Derek Ryan at $3M.

Ya that was not the argument at all, #### you would be a fun guy to have as a learned friend in court. You said the signings were “well reviewed” not that he was a laughing stock. And at best the articles they you found said it could work out for the first couple years.
